Motel 6

Don’t even deserved a star.
I went today, they are thief.
Because when I check in for a room non smoking area… one of the clerk told me that she wasn’t sure that had any available and out of magic appeared one and also the price which was higher than it said in the advertising billboard my room cost me $ 81 after leter I checked out my boyfriend went in to leave the card… he overheard a clerk offering a guy a non-​smoking two bed for the price of $ 51 and he overheard that he then ask why mine was $ 81? the clerk was rude to him and saying is was not her problem.
*Thief.
*Bad customer service.
*Deceitful and False Advertising.
I’am not going back to that motel.

I personally love the hotel, never had an issue with this motel 6. Friendly staff, clean rooms, great price, no problems with neighbors. Location is perfect. For the price you pay it’s a deal. I’ve paid more at other hotels in the area and half are not even close to this one as far as satisfaction.

Holy hell. It felt like we were being punked, this room was so terrible. The first thing I noticed was the laminate floor was inexplicably sticky. Not just in spots, literally the whole thing. Our shoes stuck to the floor and walking barefoot was out of the question. The sink did not drain. The fluorescent light in the bathroom flickered on and off and actually went out in the middle of a shower. All but one light in the main area was burned out. The bathroom door was damaged and looked like it’d been kicked in. The absolute grossest thing was that one of the beds had DIRT in the sheets! Seriously, it looked like someone had rolled around in the leaves outside and then laid in the bed.
Would have left but the whole town was booked up due to JMU homecoming weekend. What a mess. Here’s hoping I didn’t bring home bedbugs or hepatitis.

Spotless room! Great deal! 10% military discount & no pet fee! Definitely the best deal in town. Will stay again next time. About $ 50 after tax! Night manager was really friendly.

I only stayed one night, for a rest stop on my way home, but I have No complaints. The room was clean, quiet and did not smell like smoke. Staff were very friendly and polite. I would stay there again.

for a motel 6 this place was good. Clean, quiet, simple and inexpensive. I’ve stayed in Motel 6’s before where I was afraid to take my socks off but this one was very clean and the exterior was very well kept up. No complaints at all. Not the Hilton but that’s not what I was expecting. the only negative at all was the initial staleness and musty odor when we first arrived. An hour with the AC unit on took care of that.

Good for what you pay. Nice and simple. Staff needs a little more training though. Double charged me on my room. Then it was like hiring a baby to solve a crime that it committed after that. They eventually figured stuff out after many phone calls etc.
ROOMS: the laminate is nice. Feels cleaner. Simple everywhere. Feels cheap because it is. But not dirty. So good value.

Me and my girlfriend have been traveling across the country for 7 days. This is the worst motel we’ve stayed in so far. The heat is either Omg so hot and stuffy or brrr it’s freezing cold. The room is ok but nothing better than any other hotel for the price. Hard bed, thin blanket.
The worst is paying 5 dollars extra for Internet, only to find only one device can use it, and having even the high speed you pay extra for be slow and give you frequent disconnects. I even called customer service and was forces to wait 20 minutes only to get an agent who was completely unhelpful.
Avoid at all costs, every other budget hotel is cheaper and better.
I will say the person who checked me in was very nice, seemed a bit stressed but did her best to assist me in a friendly manner.

PROS: Seemingly recent renovations for same, low (motel6) price. Nice new floors, draperies, furniture, bathroom. Staff was friendly and kind.
CONS: We did find one baby cockroach in the room (which is never just one… and would suggest the motel take precautions before it becomes a problem) but otherwise the place was almost spotless.
I did itch incredibly all night (but it could have just been me) since the friend I stayed with didn’t at all.
No free wifi (can purchase it if you want)

Its not a bad place despite the lower cost. The room itself is clean and appears to have been recently renovated. However, the bedspread on my bed was a little sketchy, so I requested a replacement.
My only real complaint is that there is an additional $ 4.99 charge for internet access… ugh!

Clean motel. Friendly staff. Rooms appear to have been recently updated. We had a couple of young people in the room beside us who appear to be living full time in the room. They were friendly though and had a beer with us out front. I read some of the other reviews that said this place had bed bugs. We had no issue with that. The beds were clean and comfortable. Flat panel LCD TV in the room. Hot showers and complimentary coffee in the Libby in the morning. It’s about what you would expect from a motel 6. Cost was a major issue for us. The comfort in across the street wanted $ 150 /​night. This motel charges around $ 50 per night. Very worth the price. They also have an outdoor pool which was well taken care of and clean
The only thing I didn’t like was that they charge you for internet access. But the friendly clerk behind the counter felt bad for me because I had to wait to speak with her when she was on the phone, so she gave it to me for free
I would stay here again.

So on the spur of the «let’s go stargazing in the mountains!» moment — with wife and friends, we arrived at Harrisonburg around midnight. We wanted a cheap place to stay around so just looking at the street with Motel 6, Comfort Inn, Budget whatever, etc. We decided upon Motel 6. I don’t know why… perhaps because of the old commercials I’ve seen as a child back in the day subliminally told me to go here.
Before I get into the chunk of the review — let me just the receptionists for both checkin and checkout were VERY NICE. Welcomed us with a smile and was very clear and helpful.
Now — the actual room haha.
Maybe it’s just me but motels in general at night always look shady — that eerie silence with the occasional car driving by doesn’t promote assurance of safety — buuuut from what I could see, we didn’t have to deal with any suspicious people in the parking lot or anything like that.
We asked for a non-​smoking room which they gave us, but the minute we walked in we were hit with a wall of stale cigarette air.
No Smoking! should have been:
No? Smoking.
I kinda almost expected it. Now — this isn’t really the fault of Motel 6 imo because you can assume that there are people who just smoke in those places even though it’s non-​smoking. This is why we can’t have nice things. So perhaps if you guys aren’t super tired and request a different room because of the smell they may give you one.
It was also kinda cold in the room so we turned on the heater. But then we were hit with a weird mixture of a stench of burning plastic, skunk, and rotten food. It was pretty oppressive that we had to turn off the heater immediately. We laughed it off because of how ridiculous it was but others may not like it.
Other than that — you get what you pay for. It’s perfect if you simply need a quick place to sleep and leave the next morning. Don’t expect luxury. :) Bed’s were good. Bathroom is very very very very simple.
Recommended: Only for a quick stay
Not-​Recommended: if you have high standards and need a nice place to stay for a couple of nights.

Clean room. Friendly staff. big fan of hardwood floors in a hotel room. Will stay here if I’m ever back in the area. Well worth the money.

Infested with bed bugs. Never staying here again.

This rating is based on it being a Motel 6. Non motel 6’ers probably could care less about my rating so this is for those who have chosen to stay in Motel 6. This is one of the better M6’s that I have stayed in. Desk staff very friendly and cheerfully conversant. Rooms excellent. Bed very comfortable. Towels not the usual flimsy M6 towels. Free Wi-​Fi. Very clean. Water from sink actually came out in a good stream and not the standard water saving spray. Converted Red Roof Inn and it shows it. I strongly recommend this Motel 6.

No complaints. Clean, bug free room. Polite staff that checked in on us after we registered. Free coffee. Tons of nearby food places. We were happy with our choice and nice not to be price gouged like other nearby places. Like that it was pet friendly, may try that next time…

Beware bedbugs. Or at least some sort of bug that bites you up through the night. Didn’t sleep a wink. Checked out hours later. The staff were polite and apologetic and gave a refund as they should have but were a little quick to the draw. Almost like they’d had the problem recently.

I’ve actually stopped for the night at this Motel 6 twice now, since it’s a good deal for the price, the rooms are clean, quiet, plus it is convenient to a lot of restaurants and major highways. The desk staff was also friendly and courteous. It is a standard Motel 6, with bare bones amenities in the rooms, but that is to be expected with a Motel 6. The important thing is that the room and linens were clean.

Don’t be deceived by the pictures online like I was. This place is HORRIBLE! It is the dirtiest, smelliest, most horrible place I have ever stayed at. After traveling 8 hours, I thought this would be a decent place to crash for the night with my two dogs before hitting the road again in the morning. BIG MISTAKE!
As a single 30-​year-​old woman, I was afraid for my life here. I slept with my pepper spray and taser next to the bed. I did NOT even pull back the covers, but instead placed one of my own blankets on the bed and used my other one as my cover. I was afraid to touch anything. I made myself shower in the morning, but wore flipflops.
If I had read the other reviews on alternate sites before booking this stay, I would have known about others’ experiences with cockroaches, hairs, and unfriendly staff. Also had to pay an additional $ 2.99 for WiFi, in which they blocked certain sites during my stay, including this one (probably to avoid negative reviews).
In addition to the horrible conditions and unsafe atmosphere, there were flies in my room and even my dogs were shaking. And I was approached by interesting shady charachters asking me to «party» in their rooms. Clearly this is a place where the unfortunate live permanently.
DON’T STAY HERE! Spend that extra $ 25-​$ 50 and stay somewhere safe, clean, and acceptable.
After all is said, I must say the worst part about my stay was the smell. I can still smell it now.

We haven’t always heard great things about «6’s» but we were driving north into bad weather and needed a cheap place that welcomed pets. This «6» was fine. Clean, quiet, and all the staff were extremely friendly. This may become a regular stopping place for us!
