A
4.0 Mediocre

A
10.0 Wonderful

A
2.2 Poor
Pros:not anything
Cons:small dirty rooms. noise. would NEVER stay again
A
8.0 Very good
Pros:Clean and predictable, which is GOOD! You can count on Motel 6 to be the same generally everywhere.
Cons:Don't like paying for wi-fi. That's silly in this day and time.
A
5.4 Fair
Pros:Walking distance to restaurants and necessities
Cons:Poor bed, small space, no hair dryer, one mirror, stayed in two different rooms and one had lousy TV and bad wifi connection, too loud to hear traffic at 2-4 am, not enough pillows on bed. Room was very clean so tolerated inconveniences
A
4.8 Mediocre
Pros:Cheapest in the area. Walking distance to plenty of places to eat or buy amenities.
Cons:Mattress was a rock, bed sheets were sandpaper. We could easily hear the TV next door and every single person that walked by outside the room. No separation between toilet and rest of bathroom (sink and mirror). Wifi cost extra.
W
7.7 Good
Pros:Clean and simple
Cons:Very little toiletries no shampoo
S
8.0 Very good
Pros:The picture is COMPLETELY accurate, the room looks exactly as shown. There is an additional 3 seat table under the TV which both beds face. You can't hear the neighbors or the noise from the street. The AC is not loud enough to disturb sleep like I have experienced before in other hotels. The non-carpeted floors is a good thing to note in case you were expecting to throw down a blanket and pillow for someone who didn't want to share a bed. Free coffee in the morning and a pool, it was the perfect spot for what we needed!
C
7.6 Good
Pros:Price Staff flexibility to give us a different room even though I accidentally only booked one bed but obviously a family cannot sleep in one queen size bed. Even though they were completely booked they made it happen.
Cons:met all my expectations for a Motel 6
