Pros:

I reserved on hotels.com and when i got there to check in the front desk girl couldnt find my reservation, it took forever for her to pull it up. Eventually she found it with my booking number. Okay cool, head up to the room. Non smoking yet theres 2 ash trays in the room and it smells like someone just now put a cigarette out inside the room. Whatever its to be expected at a motel 6, okay. The toilet looked to have drops of blood in the bottom of it, had to pee anyway and flushed it it went away. Big hole in the ceiling above the beds around the fire sprinkler
We got the room bc we were going to a show at the Tacoma Dome and didnt want to drive all the way home after. We ended up coming back to the room afterwards, laying on top of the covers for a while and then deciding to drive home anyway bc none of us would have ever gone to sleep listening to whatever was going on outside and the cigarette scented bed sheets. The AC made the room frigid and dry. Switched to heat and the air felt wet and humid it was weird and uncomfortable.
I've stayed in some crappy motels before but this was disappointing enough to not even stay after paying $140 to ? Basically store my backpack while i went to the concert. Blah

Pros:

All kinds of “loopy” people staying here. Midnight arguments. Police had to calm it down. Also saw & heard “guests” arguing w front desk people who did their best to manage… cheap is cheap!

Pros:

The place is pretty run down. The room I was in was updated, but you could tell it was a former smoking room from the smell and the numerous cigarette burns on the edge of the tub. The floors were pretty dirty as well. The staff were friendly and helpful.

What do you expect?
Pros:

Comfortable enough beds, but not much else. The rooms smelled of cigarettes, and the facility is somewhat worn out, but it is the cheapest option, and as a band on a budget, it worked fine for us.

Pros:

The room had a strange fowl odor that the staff was made aware of. Otherwise for the price you got what you paid for. Beds were clean and the shower worked great
