Now, I've never made a map, but here is what I'd like to see.
Just as the basic obvious things, don't make a razor clone like jt2k, vipinthemix, etc. We have more than we'll ever need. Oh, and make everything obvious as to what it is, like an obvious cell button, obvious games, etc. Basically, don't remake razor.
It should be decently sized, meaning not small with only a couple rooms like razor and most of its clones, but not big and unexplorable like kittens or alcatraz. I think new jail summer is a good example of this, being neither so small that it is easy for T's to rush with high risk for freekills on CT side, nor so big that CT's can easily mow down any and all rebelling T's with little or no risk of freekills.
There should be a lot of set games like colors, roulette, etc. and a lot of area to play creative games, like talent show, Simon says, etc. Spyvspy is a pretty good example, having lots of set games and areas to keep T's on watch for creative games.
As for the secrets, some should be easy to find and access like vents, but most of them should be actually hidden, like secret guns, but not damn near fucking impossible to find, like canyondam's breakable floors in cells. Our classic Razor, in my opinion, has pretty good secrets in it, with a couple being obvious like vents, shower drains, and secret cell guns, but most being pretty well hidden, like the teleports, invisible buttons, and walls that you can crouch through.
But this is all just what I would put in a map I made, feel free to use my ideas, or toss them out because they're complete garbage.
