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?
