Horrible experience
Pros:

The only positive interaction I had was with the front desk attendant. I did not catch his name but he was nice and professional.

Cons:

The room was dirty. There was a sock covering the peep hole. The floor was dusty and the table had a lot of hand prints. The A/C wasn’t working in the entire place. The screen to the window had hole. Like someone tried to break in. I couldn’t not even open the window as there was a lot of sketchy activity going on. The beds had sand on them. The “cable” was viewed for 2 minutes then the signal would disappear. All bad.

Cons:

A/c was out, tv didn’t work, and the lady who worked in the morning in the office was very rude.

Pros:

The location was fine. Felt safe enough.

Cons:

I've stayed in plenty of motel 6 and similar motels before, but this was one of the worst. The room didn't look so terrible at first glance, but the bed was super uncomfortable with one very thin blanket/pillow, the sink blasted water everywhere, the shower was unusable, and there was something in the room that made me cough all night (dust? mold? Not sure I wanna know...)
