Polecam, to był świetny wybór!
Pros:

Najpierw zarezerwowałam nocleg w tym hostelu, a potem po drodze zaczęłam czytać opinie. Im bardziej się zbliżaliśmy do Motelu6, tym większe miałam wątpliwości czy dobrze zrobiłam rezerwując tam pokój. Ale już nie dało się cofnąć rezerwacji, opłata została pobrana. Ludzie pisali o robakach, insektach, brudzie i niegrzecznym zachowaniu personelu.
Kiedy dotarliśmy na miejsce doznałam bardzo pozytywnego zaskoczenia! Czysto, miła pani w recepcji, rano darmowa kawa. Pokój był bardzo czysty, pościel idealnie czysta i pachnąca, łazienka też! W łazience był zapas czystych ręczników i darmowe kosmetyki. Sprawna i nowa klimatyzacja dała nam ukojenie w nocy po podróżowaniu w upale ponad 40st. W motelu jest też pralnia - wypraliśmy i wysuszyliśmy nasze ubrania.
Naprawdę, nie wiem skąd tak negatywne opinie o tym miejscu. Stosunek jakości do ceny był niewyobrażalnie dobry. Za noc dla 6 osób zapłaciliśmy tyle co w zwykłym "campsite" gdzie śpisz w namiocie lub przyczepie.
Jak dla mnie Motel6 w Albuquerque spełnia europejskie standardy i polecam wszystkim, którzy podróżują przez Stany.

Cleanliness was Below standard
Pros:

Friendliness of the staff: checking in and checking out. They were awesome.

Cons:

The room was dirty. The table had grease marks all over, hair all over the restroom, debris on the floor, the floor had severe damage. Huge cracks which crackled with any type of movement, the desk chair I had a lot of sand on it.

I just left New Mexico, I stayed somewhere else this time.
Pros:

Rooms were clean and comfortable. Access was ok. It sits on the interstate frontage rd, which is a one way rd. So you can't get to it from Alameda Blvd, you have to exit on Paseo del Norte. It was very affordable which meant a little sketchy, kind of surprised me because that's a good part of town.

Cons:

Several broke down cars and an unrepaired corner of the building that had been run into by a car.
Lot's of questionable characters wandering around, made me a little nervous about the car.
Desk help was less than friendly.
