Just so really bad 👎
Pros:

I liked the water pressure.

Cons:

It was mind blowing. I told him what he should do to make the facilities better. And how badly the situation was and the curtains were. And the owner was right there and it it was like through one ear and out the other. I was cleaning up super good to even convince my partner to stay there with me. And their cleaning crew bugged me before checkout time. And it really pissed me the hell off.

Additional reimbursement for time stayed not just $216
Pros:

The room 101 I requested was on the ground level

Cons:

The bathroom room 101 was not ada. The grab bar by shower was loose on bottom , toilet seat wobbly and exhaust fan did not work. Only stayed in that room 2 nights and moved to another. No refrigerator in 2nd room why not one in all rooms???

Pros:

Value

Cons:

A lot. Housekeeping unlocked and stepped into my room numerous times when I was paid for a few more days. Very frustrating!! Front desk calling and telling me that I had to move to a different room, me twice. Blood splatter on the ceiling. Dogs barking, couple with a baby right outside our door one morning shortly after 11 and they stayed out there until 4:30 pm. Awful .

We will never stay in a motel 6 again.
Pros:

We stayed here once before, and it was perfectly fine. The location is good. The front desk person Carl was super helpful and nice.

Cons:

This time we tried four different rooms and three of them smelled horrible, from marijuana to spoiled milk. Another room was in complete chaos, with a fan going and upside down mattress for some kind of water damage mitigation. Unable to find an acceptable room, they refunded us our money.

It isn’t exactly in the best area.

Will not repeat
Pros:

Not much

Cons:

Hard to believe they had no soap in the room or on request (they did provide shampoo though). Toilet leaking continually. Noisy neighbors late into the night, a bit dirty, a bit run down. Wifi was intermittent at best and very slow when it did connect.
