Really funky, nasty and trashy neighborhood this place was in. The clerk behind the booth was behind metal bars as well. I know this is KIND of standard these days but it fit quite well for the neighborhood.
To make it all the more worse I am 100% sure that I got scabies(skin lice) off of the sheets. This was the only hotel I stayed at the time. Normally considered a STD! That was a horrible experience! My dogs got it too and had to go to the vet and it took me weeks to get over it and I had to cover myself from the top of my head to the soles of my feet and itch even more because that was a sign that the medicine was working . I had to wash my wardrobe three times to make sure the bugs were dead and constantly had to clean the house and try not to touch a thing while I was getting over it! Ugh!
Not all Motel 6's are like this but in Phoenix they might be.
