Lights out at Motel 6
Less than comfortable 3 pillows for 2 people pillows were very thin and hard. Temperature control unit was heavily damaged and it was impossible to see what you were doing. Plumbing was rough, the toilet didn't want to flush properly. When I made my concerns known to the person on the front desk at checkout this morning, he seemed less than interested in what I had to say.

I expected better...
Not so good. The windows dont open so you cant get fresh air. The in-room hvac system makes the room too warm or too cool and keeps the room stuffy. Oh and the window was so dirty that you could barely see out of it and it has to be cleaned from the outside; seriously it was 'that' dirty.
My key card stopped working a day before checkout.
Upon checkout, the clerk felt it better to engage in a personal conversation (on speaker) rather than even acknowledge that I was standing right in front of her. This went on for almost five minutes before acknowledged me. The customer (guest) comes first, right?

Probably stay again
It has been awhile since I’ve stayed at motel 6. Close to 15 years. I had made a reservation for nonsmoking king. After I was checked in, I didn’t realize that hotel did not have an elevator and was given a room on the 2nd floor. Being that I recently had surgery, climbing stairs was not an option for me. The desk clerk was asked if they could place me in a room on the first floor. Immediately the desk clerk tried to say they didn’t have any rooms and they were full. After it was asked how could they be full and the parking lot was almost empty for the exception of a few parked cars a room on the 1st floor was given a room. The only other thing is the washing of towels. Several strands of long hair were in the towels.
Other than that. It was a nice room and I was able to get sleep.

Keys would consistently stop working. I asked them not to provide housekeeping, and they ignored that request despite saying they’d honor it. Rooms had a weird smell. Blankets were thin sheets

It was very dirty. Went to check in and front desk person didn't know what he was doing, as well didn't have the room ready that I had reserved a few days ago. Was trying to have me pay when I already paid online. Then bedroom was ok but toilet did not work at all.

Run.
Don’t. Just don’t. We didn’t stay, this place was so bad we just left. Hotel was run down and smelled. We got a room in which the beds were disgusting and the AC wouldn’t turn off at all and the room and nasty all around. Ask for a second room and while the receptionist was very accommodating the second room wasn’t much better. Smelled mildewy and the AC wouldn’t stay on longer than 10 seconds. 90% sure this hotel was full of hooker and the amount of dogs that were in this place was insane.
