We stayed 5 minutes due to low maintenance and bugs
Pros:

The man behind the desk was nice and helpful

Cons:

When we arrived there was a bunch of girls in the reception area hanging around, we continued to check in went inside the rooms and there was cockaroaches crawling inside the bathroom, holes in the doors, the shower curtain rod was bent outside , we decided to pack our things and make the 2 hour ride back home

never again will I stay at a motel 6
Pros:

the tv worked

Cons:

bugs in my room, dead roaches on the floor, roach traps in the corners of the room, plaster falling from the ceiling, dry wall crumbling around the window and the bath tub, bath tub was dirty (even though house keeping cleaned it), the shower head had calcium deposits on it, I didn't trust the water from the sink.
the place should be condemned and torn down.

Cockroaches, seedy characters and horrible mattress.
Pros:

Nothing. From the moment you arrive to see 6-10 unsavory people hanging around the door. Front desk staff is exceedingly rude and unprofessional.

Building is in very rough shape. Missing smoke detector in room.

I woke up to cockroaches, yep.

Cons:

Building is in very rough shape. Missing smoke detector in room. Brought it to front desk attention, they told me to contact the manager on Monday....after I leave..

I woke up to cockroaches, yep

I left after one night.

The first ten minutes was a nightmare, so we did not stay any longer.
Pros:

There was absolutely nothing good about this motel. Trash piled high at one of the entrance doors. Hallways were filthy,our room had bed bugs, live spiders, someone's love notes on bathroom sink,long hair on the bed,the bathroom sink was leaking so bad that someone wrapped their own purple towel around the faucet like it was a big bandaid. Go to get some toilet paper to kill the spider and there was feces on the toilet paper. The night front desk man lied to us and we refuse to stay in the filthiest nastiest hotel we've ever and I mean ever stayed at. The parking lot was full of homeless people loitering on all sides of the motel. Please don't put yourself in a position to driving to this hotel. You will have nightmares for 2 days. And this is the God's honest Truth

Cons:

Watching it bring demolished would be a pleasure.
