I always feel like I’m getting my money’s worth when I stay
Pros:

I have been multiple times & I can honestly say that it’s the best of the lower priced ones

Cons:

Because of the price you expect certain things but the tv’s have issues. Channels but the remote might not work, couldn’t control the volume but again it is the best value & definitely cleaner @ better maintained

Great location, nice staff, parking lot struggles, loud guests.
Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

Parking lot was a little cramped. Towing a trailer (moving) it was difficult to find adequate parking for my rig with the trailer attached. The main hallway had 3 trash bags sitting outside a room and they smelled really bad, like they had been sitting there (or in the room) for a very long time. There were several rooms that I believe were people living at the hotel- cooking food in the rooms. Several rooms had the TVs really loud and people were talking really loud as well. Again- I feel like people were "living" in the hotel and treating it like their personal residence, NOT a hotel with many other guests.

Pros:

Checked in during PM shift- cannot remember gentleman's name but he was great and personable. The room was spacious and clean and I thoroughly liked that. Only commentary about the room: the window overlooked the porte cochere, which bocked any meaningful view. But that was ok for this stay!

Cons:

I didnt carry cash so had to leave hotel for bank atm to leave for housekeeping

Not worth the price for such bad experience and this is the 2nd motel 6 I've tried in Cedar Rapids i
Pros:

Beds were comfy

Cons:

Had No refrigerator after telling them twice it didn't work. They lost my ice packs in process left door open when they left after putting in a 2nd refrigerator that still didn't work. Wall ways smelled like weed, and it's a non smoking facility. No clean towels the entire I stayed for the week.

Cons:

Dishonesty...no accountability for the dishonesty and was not even on the property when they said what they said. There seemed to be no room for reason either. No real reason for what was done other than a he said she said situation. Rather unprofessional in my opinion.

Cheap but clean place to stay with few amenities.
Pros:

Very affordable and fairly clean. It was also in a very convenient location to all of the places we needed to get to.

Cons:

We booked the room for four people and when we showed up there were only 2 pillows and only one towel. When I went to ask for more the staff member was unhelpfully joking around. I appreciated him being nice but it wasn't helpful in the moment.
