Pros:

Dot the front desk is amazing. And actually, she should be working for a 4 star hotel. The problem with my stay was the noise was out of control. And I even had to call and complain.And it didn't stop. I got absolutely no sleep.

Cons:

Noise

10/10 for giving my room requests actual mind and following it up with it
Pros:

Great check in experience as the front desk gave me the exact room to my "quiet corner room away from people as possible"
First time I got that, quiet experience with no one next door knocking on walls, or listening to their foot steps.
The beds actually had super comfortable mattresses compared to my last few stays at motel 6, so that was a big positive plus

Cons:

The housekeeping arriving super early around 6-7am and pushing their cart very loudly as hinting they want u out cause they want to clean the room. It was multiple times the houskeeping later stand by my door/window for a minute or 2 just listening which made me super uncomfortable, I get they want the most rooms done before their lunch but 7 am is way too early to be pushing guests to leave as we need to have our time and moneys worth to the room.
