Motel 6

Analog tv, 80’s bedsheets that I hoped was chocolate smeared on the top. Also I wasn’t sure if there was blood or nail polish. This hotel was gross.

If you want completely rude and racists front desk clerks that hang up on you go here

Weird halfway done remodel to the newer brand standards. Room had the new faux wood floors and updated bedding under the older M6 bedspread. Discount on meals at nearby Denny’s and Kopper Kitchen.
Disappointments include old TV set and broken hallway door locks. Defeats the purpose of interior corridors to me and makes you wonder about property maintenance and security overall. My room was non smoking but retains an odor from previous years of smoking permitted.
Good overnight property, don’t hear the airport. For an extended stay, a few dollars more at another property would be worthwhile. It’s been years, but my family always stayed next door at Inn America. That’s a nice budget property for a longer stay.

Very nice. It was a welcome experience driving from Seaside, OR and stopping for a night in Boise. Receipt is good for a discount from one of several nearby restaurants. Staff is friendly and on their game. Large yard in the back of the property for exercising pets. Love the laminate flooring in the updated Motel 6 units we’ve stayed in throughout this trip.

There should be a «You will probably leave here with a communicable disease» rating for this disgusting excuse for a Motel 6. I have stayed at Motel 6s for YEARS and stayed in this dump because of the Motel 6 eputation for clean, affortable lodging.
My apprehension began when I could smell stale cigarette smoke from the OUTSIDE before even opening the front door. Entering the lobby, the halls were not air conditioned so the 80+ degree heat only magnified the stale, cigarette-​smoke stenched air.
Walking up the stairs, which were covered in filthy, smelly, stained carpeting, we were greeted by a half-​empty beer bottle on the side of the stairway; further up the side of the stairs, a cigarette butt welcomed us to our second-​story room.
After a 10-​hour day of driving and looking forward to a decent night’s rest, what greeted me next still makes me want to throw up. My pillows both had hair on them. Clearly the linens were dirty. So I called to request new ones.
By then, I was pretty sure there was more filth to be found, and sure enough, when I pulled off the dirty pillow cases, one entire corner of the pillow was covered in MOLD. The second pillow had BLOOD stains; my roommate’s pillow had similar deep, dark disgusting stains.
I immediately went downstairs to request a refund and new pillows. If the replacement pillows were not new, I was ready to sleep in the car.
To the credit of the night manager, Jessica, she gave me brand-​new pillows and sheets that were still warm from the dryer, so presumably they were clean. She also did not hesitate to refund my money.
The disturbing thing about something like this is that these MOLDY, BLOOD-​STAINED pillows had been seen and covered with pillow cases by numerous employees, an indication that this Motel 6 is run by someone who not only runs a filthy establishment, they also have no regard for public health. Mold is a known hazard for people with respiratory disorders and BLOOD??? There are simply no words to describe the level of disregard these people have for the way they run this business.
My roommate who was a first-​time Motel 6 guest said she will never visit another Motel 6. If you are a regular Motel 6 guest, do yourself a favor and stay away from this one because it is most definitely not representative of the typical clean Motel 6 that you are used to.

I have been staying here for 17 years, never again. The halls were filthy.
I received an internet card when I checked in (ll5m-​q5zn) at about 5:00pm. It stopped working 13 hours later when I needed access for 20 minutes in the morning. The codes normally last 24 hours (I stay in Motel 6s about 75 nights a year…). I brought the old code up, she (Becca) checked my check in time, said she didn’t know why it didn’t work anymore — and to just to buy a new one.
I did. I know this sounds silly, but the way it was handled, attitudinally (when the code was clearly defective), was a poor representation of M6. BTW, the lady that checked me in («Jeannie or Jenna») was fabulous and represented Boise M6 well.
There is a beautiful Rodeway a few doors down; that’s where I’ll be for the next 10 years. What a shame and loss of income over a simple not standing behind your product (that costs them next to nothing).

I’m giving this a lower rating because there is noting more I am sick of then requesting non smoking rooms and receiving the most smoke drenched rooms. This of course happened here. I had 3 dogs and all my luggage with me and had to deal with switching to a room on the entire other side of the hotel. I also ordered a queen and got two full beds instead.
Now for the room I stayed in. very clean, wood floors (which i love), really large mini fridge, microwave, shower only, older but working tv.
Only reason this is getting 3 stars not 2 is because for no extra charge I can have all 3 of my large breed dogs stay with me at any motel 6. Most places have a limit of dogs, weight limit and charge extra per night.

I have to tell you, greed is huge with these people. The room I paid for was about as low on the totem pole as a person can get as far as comfort is concerned. They told me I had to pay for Internet of I wanted it for the price you would think it would be included. The chair (only 1 in the room) was not as comfortable as the Leopold benches I make and sell. The TV is from the 80’s. Who knew there were old analog tvs still around? There are only 22 Chanel’s and none that I watch. Everything is bare bones basic so if you drove 10 or 12 hours and are looking for comfort this is definitely not the place to stay. I spent a night in jail in Daytona and had better accommodations !!! I read the other review and those guys must be on a strict budget to like this place. I for one will not ever stay at or recommend a Motel 6 anywhere in America to anyone I love or care about. My enemies can stay here… Serves them right, lol! Seriously — this one is disgustingly cheap and the staff (although friendly in a cold fish way) said all franchise Motel 6’s are basically the same. Run people, save your hard earned dollars for a better nights sleep someplace else.

Good price. Nice shower. Small and old tv. And old a/​c unit. In Internet is 2.99 for 24 hrs whick is not bad for motel 6 some place charge up 4.99.

As far as Motel 6 goes, this one is nicer than most. The rooms are accessed from indoors, which seems uncommon for Motel 6. The room was clean and great for the price. The halls of the place smelled strongly of smoke, but the room was non smoking and didn’t smell like smoke at all. Kind of sucks you have to pay for WiFi access, but it’s only $ 3 for 24 hours. If you have dogs, there is a lot of grassy space around the back to walk and exercise them. I drove from MI to OR and stayed in 3 Motel 6 locations along the way. This was the best one by far!

So normally I wouldn’t give a motel 6 4 stars but let me explain the situation. We were both exhausted heading back to Seattle from Las Vegas. It was 4am and my boyfriend called to inquire about prices for the night. The woman that answered said it would be 46 for the night but if we waited until 4:30am she would waive the check out time. This was perfect for us we wound up checking out around 2pm.
Also this is the first motel 6 I have ever stayed at that had hard wood floors. As expected clean room and bedding. The hotel staff was extra helpful for a motel 6. Also just a tip, wait to eat breakfast at Dennys after checkout they give you 15% off total bill.

My husband and I stay here every 6 months for our job, on this trip for the first leg we were here for 7 days the room was pretty clean, on the second leg of our trip we are staying for 4 days, we have used up two of those days so all we have left are today and tomorrow. Our room is huge, clean, and the housekeeping is on top of keeping us supplied with towels, the front desk staff recognize us since we are here every six months, and it’s usually quiet unless someone leaves there yappy little dog in the room and leaves it there to yap none stop lol, I don’t usually call the front desk but I had to call on that one the little dog kept me from sleeping and I work at night… it is not the motels fault it is the people who leave their yappy dog in the room and it yaps none stop, causes my dog to growl, and the yapping wakes me up.
So since I was unable to sleep for the rest of the day I did dishes (I bring my nuwave cook tops and accessories out of town with a couple coolers with meat and veggies in them) and I did laundry in their guest laundry room.
I like staying at this motel the staff is really nice, rooms are pretty clean:-)

Awful awful awful! The place stinks! Literally! Checked in, went to dinner and came back to a room that smelled like wet, homeless dog. This is by far the worst hotel I’ve ever «barely» slept in… I kept waiting for the cops to show up for our side of the story…

This place was very, very, very dirty. I mean the halls hadn’t been cleaned in months possibly years. There was bits of stuff on all the hall floors and they were very dusty. The room smelled like ass. The internet, which I had to pay extra for, was running very slow. I did a broadband test and it was at .12 megs down speed. The door on the side of the building has a keycard lock but it is broken so anyone can just walk in. I guess my safety and security isn’t that important to them. To summarize:
WHAT A DUMP!!!

Nice, clean and a friendly staff. Hardwood floors!

I agree: Mary Ann is super nice! This is a pretty new facility, with indoor halls and clean, basic rooms. When you think of Motel 6, you think of budget prices, but this is the kind of room you hope you will get. Recommended.

If you go, you better hope Mary– Ann is at the desk because she tells good stories. Also hope your next door neighbor has toilet paper, or a loud argument and loud makeup sex will proceed.

Stayed here during my stop in Boise during my Kanan Across America (
) and was satisfied with my stay. As I’ve stated before, most Motel chains have decided to do away with shampoo, and the fact that nobody has complained says more about its clientele.
What makes this Motel 6 so special is the fact that when I went to the front desk to ask for shampoo, the clerk apologized and gave me a brand new, full size bottle of Suave shampoo! This was the shampoo I used during the rest of my trip, righ on Boise!
