Motel 6

I have stayed here twice a year for the past 3 years traveling thru. Each time has been perfect. As most motel 6 customers may know some motel 6’s are not so great. The rooms are on the small side but clean and well maintained, hotel is pretty new. Have never had ‘smoke smell’ issues in the ‘non-​smoking’ rooms as I have experienced elsewhere. Glad there isnt a small fridge in the room as their noise keeps me awake. Good food chices across the street, low key area, very quiet and right on I80.

I stay at a LOT of motels every year and often choose Motel 6 because they are so welcoming to those of us who would not dream of traveling without our beloved fur babies. Motel 6 can be a crap shoot, but more often than not I find them reasonably clean and inexpensive (I would literally sleep under a bridge if it meant staying with my Chihuahuas).
This Motel 6 was by far the nicest Motel 6 I have ever stayed in. As I said, I find most of them acceptable in terms of being clean and relatively comfortable. But this place is the Ritz Carleton of Motel 6’s. Someone put a LOT of thought and standards in this facility. It should be the model for all Motel 6’s. The woman working the front desk that evening was really wonderful.
(PS — All dogs should ALWAYS be leashed in ALL public places)

Clean, fresh room without clutter at a really reasonable price. Don’t expect frills; that’s not what this motel is about. Ask for tissues, if you need them. This is really a great value.

Shower curtain was nasty, no breakfast, beds are hard and full size, no frig in room everything else seemed pretty clean. Very nice desk clerk. Next time will pay a bit more and stay at cobblestone

Easily the best motel I’ve been to. Not only was it clean, but it was a steal for $ 49!
On my road trip, I randomly stopped at this motel. As I entered, the owner was very cordial and friendly. I noticed they had several awards for great service on display. The hotel room itself was super clean! There were no problems. I was there about 2 years ago, but I will definitely be stopping by again when I am in the area. Also, wifi was free! Enjoyed my stay, thank you!

This was easily the nicest Motel 6 that I was ever in. The staff and owner were first class. I thought that the place was new. The owner then tells me that it was 10 years old. I highly recommended it.

The room was nice. It was good enough for a few hours of rest before I hit the road again. And the price was really good. I had my pets with me and they don’t charge for pets to stay. So save me some more money.

This hotel is nice I don’t know what everyone else is talking about. Smells new, is clean and only $ 50 with no pet charges! Right off interstate, front desk lady was nice. Indoor pool. No complaints.

Efficient, spartan, and clean, like a college dorm room. You’re not paying for extras, so you keep the cost down to just $ 49 for one person. I can’t give it a perfect score though, because while I requested a non-​smoking room, there were smoking rooms right next to mine, so the hallway reeked of smoke, stronger than I’ve ever smelled in a hotel before.

This is a good place to just get a shower and a good night sleep. That’s it. If that is all you are looking for then this place is perfect. There is no breakfast but there is free coffee in the morning. It’s also very clean. So if you need a shower and sleep driving across Iowa, then this is the best spot. The guy at the front desk was the owner and he was friendly and happy. I had a pretty good stay.

This seem’s to be a fairly new addition to the chain. The only thing I didn’t care so much for was the mattress seemed a bit to stiff & plasticy for my liking.

Not impressed.
We travel between NE and MN often to visit family, and are always trying hotels to find a favorite. This is not it.
The place was clean and had a room when we needed it.
The pool was small but working.
The staff however, were not friendly. I was beyond upset by the treatment. We won’t be back.

When we need a place to stay and we don’t have any money, we go to Motel 6. It isn’t my favorite place to stay but it is a place to lay your head down and sleep for a few hours before you get back in the car and drive some more. If this were a rating of Motel 6’s verses other Motel 6’s this particular Motel 6 in Avoca would rank well. But comparing it to other hotels, the Motel 6 will always fall short, just because of what it is a generic cheap hotel.
The room was tiny but the bathroom was spacious. Even though it had two twins it felt like they were smaller twins than normal. Our cats were able to stay, which is a big plus on the road. The rooms were clean and quiet.
