Pros:

The woman working the front desk was absolutely wonderful. I arrived after a long road trip and really needed to use the restroom. She checked me in (literally) as fast as she could and got me into my room in under 5 minutes. All of my interactions with her were delightful. As a single woman traveling alone with my two dogs, this Motel 6 was clean and felt very safe. I just learned that pets stay free at Motel 6, so I will definitely be staying at this chain again in the future!

A Clean, Comfortable, and Welcoming Stay
Pros:

After reading the recent negative reviews, we were a bit unsure — but our experience was very positive. The check-in was extremely friendly, the location is great, and not only the room but the entire property was very clean. Everything we needed was provided. There is coffee available, vending machines, and even washing machines and dryers. We were pleasantly surprised and would happily stay here again.

Cons:

What can you say other than it was conveniently cheap but crap, heat didn't work.

Cons:

Roaches and very dirty linen, check the beds thoroughly if you stay here. And I mean mattress and liners if you know what I mean
