Pros:

Me gustó que el lugar se veía seguro en la locación que estaba.

Cons:

El inquilino del cuarto siguiente al mío la pasaba gritando palabras ofensivas toda la noche y no me dejó dormir las dos noches que estuve ahí

I'm gonna write a book about my travels one day. This will be a fun Chapter.
Pros:

Nothing. We stay at Motel 6's a lot, because we travel with dogs. They are mostly great places for us and affordable. We don't mind low cost imperfect places... But then Motel 6 Bakersfield happened....

Cons:

Surprise! They required a deposit when I checked in at 6pm.. Never happened before. Nothing was mentioned when I booked. All was quiet early on, but we noticed the hotel was FULL of drug addicts, prostitutes and clients lurking about in the parking lot. Uber eats would not deliver past the office front door around 8pm... Hmm, suspicious... While walking to the office to get my Uber Eats, I noticed the grounds were filthy. The working ladies there were quite nice, helpful even; however, the cacaphony of tweakers started around 10pm and went all night long. The room was filthy, mirror broken, curtains tattered. At least we got entertainment of listening to both sides of phone conversations through the electrical outlet all night. Weird tiny men talking in the electrical outlet. If you want to experience this yourself, Rent lucky room #213. All went quiet around 5am, then at 6am a crazy man fired up a leaf blower outside our room. The management lied and said they had no idea who this guy was! But...at 7am they gave him a broom and dust pan to finish up. A junkie parked himself on the top of the stairs at checkout time. Since he was nodding off, not even the maids could get through. When I went to check out, leaf blower man was hanging out in the Lobby, socializing with management. "No idea!" The managers are liars and possibly the worst hotel management I have ever encountered.

Pros:

we didn't have breakfast. Staff were knowledgeable and helpful. Booking went good. We we just needed a place to sleep. It was good enough for our purposes except for one thing.

Cons:

My kids said they found worms in the sink. They said the worms liked the water and decided not to use the sink afterwards.
