Great bed, friendly staff, loud/scary people outside
Pros:

The bed was very comfortable, and the woman that checked us in was very nice.

Cons:

The walls were thin so you could hear people outside very easily. There were a lot of people being loud after midnight and a very loud argument on the stairs that we wanted to go down to leave.

It was my first and last time staying in a motel 6. It was one of the worst experiences of my life.
Pros:

It was close to the event I went to

Cons:

It was dirty. There was no room service for the 3 days we were there. We requested towels multiple times and never got any we had to go and buy our own.

A little weird, but clean.
Pros:

Location was great for what we needed. It was mostly clean.

Cons:

It was smaller than the pictures made it appear. There wasn’t anything in the room. Meaning no fridge, microwave, toiletries, hair dryer. I really needed a fridge for my trip and did not realize that the room would not have one. Also weird people lingering in the parking lot at night.

Convenient but probably wouldn't stay there again.
Pros:

No breakfast available

Cons:

Only one washcloth the whole four days even though we requested more twice. Had to request more than one face towel. No maid service whole visit.
