It was a nightmare for a single woman.
Pros:

The tv worked. It had running water.

Cons:

There was no refrigerator and no microwave. Then... Some guy tried to enter my room with a key. If I hadn't put the door latch on, he would have. I notified the front desk and he thought it was the maintenance man. "Not while I'm in here" , was my response. No discount for this half room and they charged me a $50 deposit.

Pros:

It was a place to lay our head for the night

Cons:

The staff. Every motel 6 I've ever stayed at there was either a $20 deposit or none and typically noticed during booking that there would ve a deposit. This booking showed 0 deposit and we place a reservation for 2 rooms and was charged a deposit per room. The location is in the worst area. Staff advised cars are broken Into frequently. The beds were for toddlers and weren't comfortable at all. Barley any towels and there's nothing on the tv to watch but advertising. Rooms were also not very clean. They have recently remodeled and it appeared to just be for new sinks and counters.
