Una experiencia absolutamente olvidable. Me sorprende que Booking promocione estos establecimientos
Pros:

Nada.

Cons:

Todo fue horrible, nada que ver con las fotos publicadas, las luces no funcionaban, la ducha funcionaba mal, estaba sucio, el personal desatento y descuidado. Junto con la llave te entregaban un papel que dice: cierre las puertas con el seguro; gire el cerrojo y coloque la cadena de seguridad; no abra la puerta a desconocidos; cierre su auto con llave y no deje adentro artículos de valor; y en caso de emergencia llame al 911… nunca me habían dado una advertencia así en un hotel… daba miedo

My stay was comfortable but I would like my deposit back
Pros:

I’ve been going there for years love the location.

Cons:

Well new management brought on new policies. I didn’t like that they charged me a deposit fee for a “just in case” the room gets damaged method. When I got in the non smoking room there was a portable heater there that didn’t work and it looked like someone put out a cigarette on it, some things were broken and not of my doing.

My stay was just fine for me. These last two motel 6 stays have been relatively fine.
Pros:

Did not eat breakfast

Cons:

That I could get underneath the bed. There was a microwave and refrigerator in the room.

I couldn't stay. I felt unsafe and wouldn't even try to stay in that room.
Pros:

Did not have the breakfast.

Cons:

I took one look at the room, and returned the key card to the front desk. Broken floor boards, dirty everything, no toilet paper roll!, it was simply the dirtiest, worst motel room I've ever seen.
