adequate
Pros:

The bed was comfortable, the fridge convenient, and the a/c worked well. The proximity to the border worked well for us as we had to return the car to the border and take a flight to return to Mexico.

Cons:

It's obvious that some time ago there were major improvements to the property; however, it's time for routine maintenance (paint touchup, in particular) to be done.

reliable place to stay
Pros:

everything was fine. Twi small issues 1. The mattress would not stay in place on the frame. please make sure the mattress is secure. 2. The shower need a shelf and rack to put your bottle of body wash and shampoos along with a hand towel rack.
The room was roomy.

Clean and Safe Motel 6
Pros:

This Motel 6 was clean, safe and spacious. It wasn't rundown and there weren't shady people lurking nearby,(which happened on my previous two Motel 6 stays.) So I was pleasantly surprised. I saw families this time. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Although the motel is near the freeway, I couldn't hear any noise.

Cons:

The internet was a bit slow and the pillows were too thick.

Pros:

Fast and easy check-in process, the front desk was very helpful, plenty of parking, rooms were tidy and very comfortable. The room smelled good and fresh. The walk in shower was a big plus for us

Cons:

The remote only had a power button and volume control working so it was stuck on the USA channel.
