Terrible, unresponsive staff, disgusting rooms
Cons:

The second we entered our room we were greeting with 50+ flies, dirty floors, broken lights, screaming neighbors and a cloud full of smoke in a supposed smoke free room. We did not feel safe or clean staying there so we scrambled to find a new hotel. I asked the front desk guy if we could get a refund and he said yes, but he didn't do anything in the moment, went back to message the property and call several times, but he started ignoring my calls and still hasn't given me a refund. I wouldn't stay here if it was free, super sketchy, go anywhere else.

Cons:

Horrible location. Room was unlivable with all the filth and bugs! The worst experience of my life! Front desk horrible! He beat a woman with a bat! Nothing in room worked, toilet or TV. Bed was dirty, pillows also. There was no toilet tissue. This location needs to be closed for good. I should have jus slept outside.

Don't stay here!!!!!!
Pros:

Nothing!!!! We had two rooms because we where on vacation. Never had a problem with a motel 6 before. But this one needs to be closed down.

Cons:

The beds smelled like pee and we had to change our own sheets. The motel had roaches. The Crack Heads where outside out door and made the girls real uncomfortable. We ended up not staying and I would recommend you don't either. This motel needs to be taken off Bookings website.

Disgusting, bug infested, smoking only property
Pros:

There was no pet fee. Entire reason for booking.

Cons:

I requested a non-smoking room. The room wreaked of cigarette smoke. The bathroom door did not close - it overhung the doorframe by half an inch. I booked for two guests, but there was only 1 pillow and 1 (shredded) towel in the room. There were dead bugs on the floor, and I continued to step on live ones. The shower was leaking and there was a large paint blister peeling from the ceiling. My dog and I spent the entire night itching from the bedding, which was both stained and had holes. I have stayed at very bare hotels before, but this was downright dirty and rundown/not maintained. Feral cats were everywhere and the pool was green.

Terrible and I would never recommend to anybody they should be ashamed of themselves
Pros:

Nothing the pool wasn’t even up and running. It was all green water in there. There was flies all in the room. The rooms were dirty. Nasty air conditioner was broken and there was mold in the rooms. It was terrible. I would never recommend staying in there. I asked for my money back. I didn’t stay there.

Cons:

Everything It was terrible

Pros:

I need to speak to a manager. We didn't get notified that our reservation was canceled. We showed up and the front desk said there had been a fire so the room was not avaliable.
