Disgusting! Do not recommend any one stay there.
Pros:

Nothing good to say about our stay!

Cons:

The hotel room as filthy. Stain on the bed sheets and the smell was terrible. The hotel put us on a smoking room because we booked through an external site (Booking.com). There was 4 roaches in the room and I couldn’t sleep all night. I felt sick staying there and never will book a motel 6 again.

It was the only thing I could find in the area on short notice
Pros:

I was able to leave without my car or room being broken into

Cons:

Towels were terrible, had better absorption from paper towels. Had to leave my driver's license to use the one hair dryer from the front desk attendant. No shampoo or conditioner.

Not worth the price at all
Pros:

It was close to outlets. Hotel was clean but needs updating, curtains had holes in them and the tub had stains

Cons:

The description said it was close to the beach, it is not even close to the beach at all. Pool closed at 8pm in the summer time, that’s way to early. Also we wanted to sit outside our door and enjoy the beautiful evening because the pool was closed and we were told we couldn’t sit outside at all! That’s crazy! For the price and lack of amenities i would not recommend staying here

Horrible and filthy!
Cons:

Burn the building down! It was horrible. They put me in a smoking room and I don’t smoke, I asked for a non smoking room. They said there is a 20 min window to change rooms????? The room was disgusting So I left, instead of staying.
