This is a dump, stay at your own risk.
Pros:

Nothing. Sub standard to Motel 6 brand.

Cons:

No cover for the bed only a thin bed sheet. Cigarette burn marks everywhere. Smelled moldy. I have stayed at other Motel 6’s which I found to be a good quality like the one in Mission, TX, but this place was a dump.

It's not worth the money they charges to be honest with nothing in the room but a bed and TV
Pros:

Only thing I liked about the hotel is that the staff was nice and that's it

Cons:

I didn't like that there was no microwave and refrigerator in the room and they didn't have any breakfast and the bed was hard and to low
