Update: I spoke with Rosey, the manager and she was very nice and apologetic. She said she is pretty new there and was "cleaning up shop." She gave us half off of the amount we paid back to us. She says that they have someone coming to take care of the cockroach problem and she is aware of the ongoing probles with this place. I wish I could give more stars because she was very nice but I literally couldn't sleep all night because it was so bad (they were completely booked and had no other room to move us and nowhere nearby had any rooms available so we had no other option). I definitely would never stay here again but hopefully Rosey can get this place in working order. She has the customer service part down! Thanks for the help Rosey. It's Labor Day weekend and we decided to book a last min trip here. This was the only room under $400 a night. It ended up being $240 for the night. Since it's only one night we figured we would just take a chance because the reviews were horrible. BIG mistake. When we walked in the main light did not work. Then I went to take a shower and there is black mold all over the bathroom walls and ceiling (pic taken) I then go to put my stuff away and there is a dead cockroach on the ground. Absolutely disgusting (pic taken). It's already so late and I'm exhausted and I'm my pjs so I am not walking all the way to the office. I then go to lay down and there is green discharge looking stuff on the pillow (pic taken) Im so grossed out. Never again!!!! I'm so paranoid that I will wake up to cockroaches everywhere. I cannot sleep. Seriously, $240 for this disgusting room? What a sick joke. read more

The check in worker was extremely rude. I didn't even bother staying to argue over it because I was already running late to a family party and she is young so in my head I figured she was having a bad day so I just disregarded it. The sink didn't work & the AC did not work either. read more

Motel 6 - Hotels Near Me - Watsonville, California

This motel was filthy and in desperate need of repair. The bathroom smelled of sewer gases. It was revolting. It looked like someone had attempted to break down the door-the wall next to it was cracked the entire length of the door. Even the elevator was trashed. We paid close to $600 for 2 nights here and stayed only 1 as it was car week in Monterey and nothing else was available. No offer was made to compensate us. As we left the room, my husband pointed out a hairball that was 4 inches in diameter! Do not go there! I gave it one star because I had to read more

Definitely don't recommend this place for what they're charging. Room walls and shower were gross. They also claim their key card machine doesn't work and they personally open your door for you; highly inconvenient. In my opinion, there is something happening for them to act this way that they're not sharing. The whole time I was here (3 days and 2 nights) the machine didn't work. The few nice things was the service of staff, they were friendly and the mini fridge and microwave. Not enough for me to return. read more

There is no excuse for a room to be dirty, as we tolerated the floor and even four by with the dirty floor in the tub. But waking up and seeing "Crack" written in blood was the straw that broke the camels back. That is a health safety hazard. In most instances, a manager being contacted would normally prompt some type of response or apology, but a lack of response spoke volumes. read more

I made a reservation for my daughter and grandkids. Our plans changed right after we got to the motel. The front desk clerk and manager were great and let us change our reservation at the last minute. The room was clean and fresh, even though we weren't able to stay there. read more

We pulled into the parking lot to see a line out the door and a handful of RVs scattered around the parking lot that were being lived in. It took over an hour for check-in. The room was tiny, old and did not feel clean at all. We did not feel safe during our stay. The whole experience was awful, and we will not be staying at a Motel 6 again. read more

Motel 6 Watsonville has amazing customer service and goes above and beyond to help guests in need. For example, I was driving by the motel and got a call from work everyone knows when you off-site you still need to get things done in a timely manner However my wifi wasn't working I walked into the office and asked if I could use their wifi with no hesitation they front clerk said yes! saved by great customer service! thank you motel 6! read more

Asked for Non-Smoking when reserving room, but was put in a very stinky smoking room on 1st floor. There was mold in shower and cigarette burns on the edge of the tub. There was no dresser, no housekeeping, toiletries, clock or hair dryer. Brown substance on the wall in bathroom. Noisey guests above that stomped around on the laminate floor and made the ceiling pop and creek. Local males gather in front of the hotel at night to party: very loud talking, music, and on Saturday night a gun was fired at 12:45 am. Not only is the room bad, it's not safe at night. My first and last stay at Motel 6. read more

Motel 6 - THE COCKROACH THAT CAME OUT OF THE TOILET PAPER!! - Hotels Near Me - Watsonville, California

I m surprise the city or state hasn't red flag them. Dirty property. Smells like cigarettes in the rooms. The plumbing is leaking and horrible. Cigarettes all over the parking lots and walk way. They don't have the staff to keep up. Employee Redd is the worst employee there. Absolutely rude. Not people friendly. I don't know who would stay here ? For what they charge. Watsonville PD always there. Drunks read more

We've been waiting 90 for our room to be ready. We're seniors, I use oxygen and we're sitting in a hot car because it looks too shady and full of questionable characters to feel safe. Yes, it is the cheapest room in a 50 mile radius ( but no longer cheap!) but it should be. read more

Came to the area from Sacramento for a Girl Scout event. Needed somewhere to sleep that was safe for myself and two young daughters), clean and not too expensive. I looked everywhere and with some of these past reviews was nervous but decided I could not afford over $200 a night for a hotel in Santa Cruz. This was a good compromise. Upon check-in was told by the owner the complex is now 100% smoke-free and that they were doing renovations and I would get a room that had recently been completed. Room 344 was on the third floor and yes they do have an elevator so no big deal. It was situated towards the back of the property and was very quiet. Some dumpsters and cargo containers did take up parking spots but was able to park directly in eye sight when I looked out the window. I was pleasantly surprised with the new decor and layout. I will post photos. Yes they do not give you shampoo but for a Saturday night cost of $78 including tax I can bring my own shampoo. WiFi is available for a fee of $2.99 per day per device. Decided we could live without for one night. They have an outside pool (did not use as it was not heated and the wind was chilly). The well stocked vending machines, ice machines and washer/dryer are all located on the first floor. The owners also reside at the property which I feel is a plus. Immediately across the street are many stores (Big 5, Dollar Tree, Baskin Robbins), Food (Applebees, Jack in the Box, Subway) and a movie theater. I would definitely return to this centrally located motel. read more

In short - stay away, you'd be better off sleeping in your car. My wife and I were planning to visit Monterey Bay and many of the motel/hotels in the area were already full. We called Motel 6 and all they had left was a room with two double beds for $75 (after taxes and fees $85). We arrived in the evening around 8pm. The motel was a slum. When we entered the elevator It had graffiti scratched into just about every possible surface and we were met with an odor that we could only assume was the remainder of something that had vomited, drown in it's own vomit, and then died. On top of this scent was a very offensive chemical cleaner odor as well - that led us to believe that they had just backed a truck up of cleaner solution and dumped it inside in an attempt to bury the body. Too bad it only made things worse. We got to our room, after shouldering past a few other clients that looked like prostitutes and drug addicts. We got to the door and neither of the card keys we were given worked. We crept back downstairs, trying not to upset the drug dealers' normal business. The girl at the counter apologized for our inconvenience and declared she had no idea why our key-cards wouldn't have worked.. while at the same time quickly and covertly swiping our cards in a machine next to her, handing them back, and telling us to try again. We returned up to the room after another nose-filled trip in the Elevator of Vomit-Death. We got to our non-smoking room a second time, opened the door, entered and were immediately overwhelmed with the burnt stench of really dank weed smoked in very confined quarters. The smell was so pungent, that even after leaving the room and returning back down to the front desk my wife could still smell the odor on my clothes. This was the end our stay, droogies. We requested a refund, drove to an IHOP parking lot and slept in our mini-van -- away from the horrors of drug addicts, dealers, and prostitutes -- away from the stench of nauseous death, despair and burnt habits. Unless you are a wino, crack/meth user, busy hooker, or practice coprophagia - stay away from this one. I noticed someone else's review mentioned there are some nice automobiles in the parking lot sometimes... yup, that's what drug dealers drive. read more

This is an ok place to stay, inexpensive, especially if you're priced out of Santa Cruz. Clean for the most part. The negative is the women working in the office. I dread walking in there. Sour, unfriendly & speak Spanish to each other while they're waiting in you. I understand all that they're saying too :-) The heavy set one doesn't like to get up out of her seat. Horrible customer service. Cannot stand them. They all need to find jobs in back offices away from customers. Never a smile or a welcome. Is it really that hard to fill these positions nowadays that you must hire these creatures? I totally understand that they're dealing with the dregs of society staying here, but there are some educated & professional people staying here as well. Be nice. We are NOT amused with your antics!! read more

The heater did not work at all. A maintenance man told me that it needs to be replaced AND that there are 10 or 12 more rooms like this with a broken heater that needs to be replaced. But this hotel has not even been ordering any new heaters! This shows that this motel doesn't even try to fix problems. And they knowingly give these rooms to paying customers ! Additionally: the room smelled bad - possibly due to some fluid used for cleaning. And the room was not well cleaned: there was debris still on the floor. Numerous of the front office staff are very incompetent. I experienced the young woman who manned the front office desk on the late evening/night of Friday 14 Feb 2020 to be shockingly rude. Also: she grossly overcharged me for my stay for a total amount of $500 for 2 days! And she was not the only person guilty of overcharging. The day manager the following day half corrected the previous desk clerk's overcharges but still overcharged me an absurd $300 for a Friday and Saturday for this budget hotel room with a broken heater. Ultimately, I was contacted via email by Motel 6 corporate headquarters requesting that I provide feedback of my experience. Then the corporate headquarters reduced my charge down to a more reasonable $75/day. First the night desk clerk charged me $500 for 2 days. Then the daytime manager "fixed" this by reducing the charge to $300. Then Corporate Headquarters had to step in reduce the charge for 2 days down to a more proper $150. for 2 days. This is a Motel 6 from Hell. Do yourself a favor and stay far, far away from this place. read more

Thin walls and celings. Ikea "like" decor. Miniscule cheap. Clean room but housekeeping basically sucks. Picture added of housekeepers bed making skills... Or lack there of. So basically you pay for a place to sleep where suspicious activity occurs in the parking lot or next room. I prefer to stay away from motel 6 be a use of the things I didn't mention. Can I say they provide good reason to travel with LARGE dog. read more

Motel 6 - This is my made bed.No shampoo/conditioner & not much effort making bed either.What did you do in my room housekeeping staff? - Hotels Near Me - Watsonville, California

I'm a single mother with 4 kids and I'm always sketch and extra protective when it comes to staying at places where the atmosphere is unsafe. After reading reviews I was not sure what I was getting myself into. My daughter had a softball tournament and this place was literally the only hotel left in town. I paid $525 for two nights, what do you expect for convenience. I gave this place 5 stars for a number of reasons. The location is perfect. Your literally 4 minute drive from target, big 5, Starbucks, sushi, dollar store, pizza, apple bees, and Verizon. What more could you possibly need???!!! The actually hotel met my expectations for a motel 6. The bed was small and springy. Blankets where ruff and not really comfy but we brought our own and just slept on top of the bed. We went to the pool for about and hour and over all I would have to say it was a pleasant stay. The area itself had a lot of squatter looking people just wandering around the parking lot. People out side there rooms talking, drinking. I didn't mind, they kept to themselves and I spent a minimal amount of time out side out hotel room so it wasn't an issue. My daughter actually forgot her slippers at the pool and someone came and returned them to us. You get what you pay for but I was happy with the stay, nothing fancy. For me it was all about location location location. read more

This whole place needs to be run through a strong cleaning cycle in the washing machine. We couldn't stop imagining what our room would like like under a blue light. This place MAKES you imagine that *shudder*. Dirty stairwells, trash on the ground, paint touch ups needed, shady looking house cleaning, no in-room coffee, I repeat, NO IN-ROOM COFFEE... No shampoo, no conditioner, no lotion, no safe, dirty floors, someone else's large black hair on the bathroom floor, no microwave, no fridge, no free WiFi, smoke detector was hanging loose from the ceiling, sheets were a thread count of maybe 10? I never knew they went so low, but now I'm a believer...did I mention no in-room coffee? No breakfast treats in the lobby, although I hear that's where they offer coffee, but I really have no desire to try theirs. Yeah, this place will save you $75 a night over the others in the area, but I think I would've rather skipped the pricey dinner we had and forked the money over for a place that didn't give us the heebee jeebees! read more

If the housekeepers even showed up, it was late in the day after I got in from work which meant I had to step out of the room so the maid could clean. The walkways and stairs were so dirty they were almost black, plus many gum spots and dark stains on both sidewalks and lower wall sections. When I complained I was asked to leave. I then left for a motel 6 in Stockton and the conditions were much better there so I now know that the problem lies within this individual franchise or the management here. May I note that I was offered room service daily by the office personnel but only received it 3 out of 7 days. I would rate this facility 0 stars if I could. read more

Guess I should of read some reviews. In 50 years, this is the worst experience I can remember having with a hotel/motel. I saw people working on their cars in the parking lot, construction crews staying there running power tools, smoke coming from our neighbors room in the morning, same neighbor's room smoke detector going off at 10pm, no lock on the bathroom, limited toiletries, no coffee, poor mattresses, and our door left ajar after house keeping.........I know it's just a Hotel 6, but is this the norm from them? Well, at least it was relatively clean. read more

Non-smoking room was smoky smelling of cigarettes, toilet overflowed, no microwave or refrigerator, small TV from the dark ages with crappy remote with bad batteries and low quality picture and sound, fuzzy channels and poor selection, inconvenient A/C/heater without degree-marked thermostat so it could never be set right requiring constant adjustments all day and night, fat lazy staff only half effective on solving problems, answered phone only half the time (when I needed to know WiFi situation which they didn't explain during checkin), poorly equipped and overpriced compared to other hotels and other Motel 6's in the area as well as unsatisfactory treatment. It is possible that after remodel, new management attitude, and better price alignment, that this could improve to par performance. read more

No bed bugs, clean enough to sleep on the beds. I was here with my family and I expected a lot worse because this is not a fancy wedding but it was clean and that was enough. Only problem was there was a few trailers parked in the back of the hotel in the parking lot and one in particular looked so sketchy and scary. read more

Customer service by itself gets five stars. Other than that, one star for everything else. There was a visible yellow stain towards the back of the toilet. There was a cigarette hole on the comforter. There was a snot-like yellowish stain on the flat sheet -- we took it off. The sink did not drain so left gunk and bacteria after every use. Bathroom had funky odor. Walls are thin; you can hear every noise from your room. Door keys were jenky. I was grossed out every single night. Don't expect any amenities besides a bar of soap. You have to pay for wifi. It was not worth it being thrifty. I will never stay here again. This is the kind of place that gives you a sense of urgency to wash and clean all your belongings after you leave. Yuck. Do yourself a favor and pay more for better lodging elsewhere! read more

One star is two too many for this DUMP of a motel. Tom, you can turn the light off at this location. I am handicapped and was promised a roll in shower. They gave that room away so I had a tub. No shower--but it didn't matter because the hot water was not working. They had no other rooms available. The room was filthy-my socks were black on the bottom. Bed was uncomfortable and the noise of people stomping around kept me up. Lastly, had to park behind another building since the lot was filled. When is a deal not a deal? When you pick Motel 6 Watsonville! read more

Disgusting hotel and lousy front desk service. Definitely not like others I've stayed at. Not the prettiest furniture uglier than ikea. I've stayed near Monterey and you could at least walk around the room without bumping in to your roommate. I had to wipe down everything and the floors had shit stuck to them from not being mopped. WE COUKD LITERALLY SEE THE DIRT UNDER THE BED. Toilet had no cover to place things on let alone a hook to hang your towel. Just a bar not good your stuff will slide right in to toilet. I used my flip flops to shower in and the drain didn't work well so I basically soaked my feet in other peoples dirt. The microwave wasn't wiped down. I kept calling the day of to make sure my room was still being held as we were running late. They never picked up and there were at least three staff there that I could see WHEN I GOT THERE. ALL OF TGRM LOOKED LIKE DEER CAUGHT IN HEADLIGHT. DIDNT KNIW HOW TO DO A CASH/credit transaction. The people staying there didn't care how loud they were. There were about 5 men huddled in one room next door drinking until 2-3 am. Curtains were filthy and smelled like dirt. What a shame being in a location near million dollar estates and this disgusting refugee camp there. NASTY NASTY NASTY. IM HOPING NO ROACHES CRAWLED ON US LET ALONE BED BUGS. I WOULDNT BE SURPRISED. LUCKY. I brought my own sheet and pillow since I drove over from SJ. I should have chanced it and stayed at a nasty hotel in Santa Cruz. But 1k a night for junky dirty room just didn't seem appealing. It's a shame how Santa Cruz doesn't do a better job with pricing. Not worth over $200 a night any time of the year there either. read more

This is my first time at this motel. I will give both the pros and cons. Pros: They were very accommodating to our situation. My dad booked my room. And accidentally got us a family of 4, a room with one bed. I explained the situation to the front desk and they immediately put me in a room with two beds. Unfortunately that particular room smelled like an ashtray. I went back to the front desk and they switched my room again. All the hotels in watsonville are booked because of spring break so I was very pleased they did the switching of our rooms so quickly. Now for the cons: I've never been in a room with the bear necessities. There are 2 very loud itchy beds. Every movement you hear a crinkle. There was no clock, no shampoo. It was so weird to not have those things. Of course there wasn't a hair dryer, iron or coffee maker. You get what you pay for I guess. I was happy for the room cause there was no where else to go, but I would never stay here again. Or recommend it. read more

Motel 6 - I was scared to see this. What is it??? I don't want to know. - Hotels Near Me - Watsonville, California

Why, oh why do I do this to myself? We all do it from time to time - that temping fate decision to click the 'book now' button to a motel 6. One would really think I might have learned my lesson by now - this time I finally did. We stayed here as it was close to our work location for the weekend. Bad, bad choice. Thank you Motel 6 Watsonville for enforcing the fact that I will never, ever, by choice, stay at a Motel 6 again in my life. Since staying one horrific night at this particular Motel 6, I have since watched several episodes of 'Cops', wondering if I might see myself in the background, peeking out of the curtains of our room, fearing for my life. OK, not fearing for my life, but still pretty damn worried. We did not get to experience the elevator, because it was broken. We did not get to experience the ice or vending issues - because they were broken. Our room, which was the size of a jail cell, was right by the stairs on the 3rd floor. All night long we heard stomping, more stomping, then some yelling, talking, laughing and more stomping. Then, when you think things can not get worse - they do. I guess its a nice thing for a hotel to be pet friendly... if you don't mind large, barking dogs from midnight until 5 am. Who does not love the CONSTANT barking of two pitbulls all night right? I mean, if you really try, it could be soothing and help you sleep! Next comes the fights - and this is not just any fight - this is a fight that some how was able to take place on all three floors of the hotel, at the same time! These were some very talented low lifes, not your average run of the mill. This action packed fight went on and on and on and on... for over 3 hours, non stop. Call the front desk you might say at this point, right? Oh yeah - I did. About 15 times. No answer. Maybe the front desk person was hiding from the fight - or maybe the front desk person was participating in the fight - who knows, but whatever they were doing, they were not answering the phone. Some time around 4 AM the cops show up. More yelling. The cops ask the large group of people to leave. Here is the clincher - remember, the elevator is broken right? This whole group of people are going to get their last hurrah - I mean they just paid 85.98 for their nights stay, so they are going to let everyone know they are getting their moneys worth - every single person stomped down all three flights of stairs - and every single person let their stupid roller bags slam down every single step all the way down. F&%king A&%$@*es. 4:51 AM - finally. Silence. 5:10 AM - alarm goes off - time to go to work. Get up, take a quick, cold shower (not by choice) and attempt to dry off with a scratchy, sand paper type towel that is the size of a postage stamp and off we go, never to return - ever. When checking out, I asked to speak to a manager. I left my contact info, and have called to speak to him 6 times since my stay a week ago - no call back. He probably hears these sort of complaints a lot.... Or maybe he was kidnapped by drug dealers and hookers! read more

It's shit hole, I'm giving it two starts because of the price. It's dirty, it smells, everything is breaking down and they don't do rOom service unless you ask for it. WTF! Should be the other way around. read more

Rooms are VERY small, and look NOTHING like the pictures on the Motel 6 website .The outside of the building looks fine, and blends in well with the surrounding area, but once you get to the room, its a different story. There were four of us staying the night, my wife' two kiids, and myself. We reserved a room with 2 "full size " beds, but the beds were barely bigger then a twin size. NOBODY slept well, and was a waste of money. We will NEVER still at this location again... read more

Motel 6 - The website makes thier rooms look spacious, and roomy, this is what you actually get ! Beware of this place... - Hotels Near Me - Watsonville, California

The staff at this hotel is careless, not rude, but not friendly--an overall "I don't really want to be here, so I don't really care what you need" kind of attitude. I had booked it in advance on priceline because it was the least expensive hotel in the santa cruz area. It would have been fine except for the following, which made it terrible and highly UNrecommendable. The room had an incredibly strong wet-dog odor. I was tired when I got there so I didn't want to change rooms. I thought that the longer I was in the room, the less it would smell, as the nose usually adjusts to bad odors, but it never got ANY better. It was strong the entire night and into the next day. I actually got really nauseos from the smell. When we went to the front desk to ask for a candle or air freshener or something, they gave us a bottle of "all purpose cleaner" to spray in the air and told us that all of the downstairs rooms are used for people with pets. We had several suitcases that we didn't want to drag up the stairs, so that was really annoying. I suppose the upstairs rooms possibly don't smell bad? I don't know.. The other really annoying thing is that I was there to look for apartments in Santa Cruz and reeaaallly needed the internet to look up apartments. We paid the extra $3 for wifi that worked for 2 minutes, then stopped working for hours, then worked for 2 minutes, then stopped working for hours until giving up. I got absolutely no searching done and wasted a lot of time and money being there. It was incredibly frustrating. They ended up giving us a refund for the wifi, but I really would have rather not been inconvenienced and just paid the extra money. The room also had no fridge, no microwave, and no coffee maker. The only thing I enjoyed in the hotel was the shower, which was wonderful actually. So, if you don't mind no internet, no food/drink storage, and incredibly strong dog smell, have at it. Otherwise, take your business elsewhere. read more

I stay at motel 6 fairly often since they are cheap and allow dogs without additional cost. I don't expect any frills, Motel 6 is bare bones basic but usually does the job. Many we have stayed in have had "regulars", but none have ever been this sketchy. There were two tweakers hanging out outside there rooms on the bottom floor, one who ended up roaming around the parking lot in his tighty-whities (underwear). We avoided them as best we could. The worst came at 5 in the morning as we had to call 911 on the couple in the room next to us as he had started slamming her around the room. My life has been lucky enough that I have never had to listen to or witness something like this before, and it is pretty bizarre that I was paying for the experience. I don't care how cheap this motel was it was not cheap enough. As if it can't get worse the cops never even came, the guy just ran out of steam and they both left together about an hour later When we reported this to the desk in the morning they were completely unfazed. It was probably not the first time. The room itself was adequate , the pillows incredibly flat. Spend more money and stay somewhere else, not cheap enough for the experience. read more

Clean and easy, looks just painted, and modular, woodish floors, no carpet which is great cause that's always the thing that holds dirt and smell. Super simple. I haven't been to a Motel 6 in, I don't know, forever. This was a very last minute, just need a bed night, however there is a pool and little vending machine room with laundry and if I was going to stay here a couple days I might be OK. I do like a little pampering but for the price I don't expect extras. They do serve free coffee in the morning, free doesn't make it good but everyone has different taste when it comes to coffee. Mattress was firm and bouncy, sheets low end and a little itchy, not unexpected. Water pressure average. Air temp adjustable to my needs, very comfortable. Quiet on the East side. Not so on the pool side but great distant views of the ocean on that side. I chose Eastside for the quiet. Cable with sufficient channels. Wifi, you can pay for simple or fast, two prices. If you want free there's a Starbucks about a mile away. read more

Motel 6 - Clean and simple, very simple. - Hotels Near Me - Watsonville, California

Watsonville. I don't think I'll ever forget that name. It's such an obscure city (more like town) east of Monterey. It's funny that they decided to stick a Motel 6 here. I feel like this Motel 6 is the only reason why there's traffic through this even go to Watsonville (though I could be wrong). The good thing is that this Motel 6 is next to a Edwards Cinema, so I guess you could always catch a movie next door before crashing on your bed. When we checked in and tried to get up to our room on the third floor, we realized that the elevator was broken and had to climb the stairs. Not a big deal for us, but it might be troublesome for people who have large suitcases (though I did see them try and fix it the next morning). When we got into the room, I was actually very surprised at how nice it was. The room that we checked in definitely didn't look as crappy as the pictures, and the TV was pretty good as well. I think it's because we got a renovated room. After reading the reviews about the dirtiness and other things, I was a little scared of this place but me and my friends didn't run into any of those at all. Everything was pretty clean, except for this...stain on the bed. I guess the sheets are clean, but they obviously didn't bleach them. Eh, you get what you pay for. One thing was that they didn't provide shampoo and conditioner, which is fine because I brought my own. Not sure if they had body wash or bar soap either, so just make sure to bring your own stuff to shower with. After reading everybody's reviews, I am a little hesitant to come back.
