Motel 6

My room was clean, very affordable. I only had one washcloth in my room however and when I called down to the front desk, the woman working was less than helpful. Shortage in washcloths. No big deal. The motel is in an ideal location, I walked right over to JC Penny and bought a new set of cloths. Very nice steaming hot showers. The WIFI is NOT free however, false advertising for sure. All in all I would say the staff need an attitude adjustment. I’m pretty sure they hate their lives. Not friendly at all and not helpful, staring blankly off into space when I asked them where the nearest Walmart was. Very clean comfy rooms. I will stay here in the future. Less than $ 80 for a night, very affordable.

Stayed here for a week while waiting on our apt lease to start, here are a few of the issues we experienced:
1. WiFi isn’t included… wtf? Had to pay $ 5 per day, PER DEVICE just to have Internet access in our room… which is usually free at every other hotel/​motel. Absolutely ridiculous.
2. No fan in the tiny bathrooms which sucked
3. Very limited number of tv channels, although they did have hbo
4. Had to hold down the washer in the vending area because it wobbled so bad that it would just shut the machine off with about 3 minutes left.
Just not worth the money or the hassle they put you through when the price really wasn’t that much cheaper than other motels in the area.

Disgusting. We made a reservation in advance for a queen room, but it reeked of cigarette smoke (100% smoke free?!) so they moved us to a double room that smelled like an entire hockey team and all of their gear was decomposing in it. We were very tired and really wanted to take a hot shower and go to sleep, but the smell was so bad we couldn’t. Finally they put us in an odor free double room. It was small and sparsely furnished, but met our basic needs though we weren’t thrilled with the choice between sleeping in separate beds or sharing one double bed. We were just happy to finally be able to breathe and sleep in the same room… until we tried to use the bathroom. Apparently we were put in a handicapped room, which meant the highest point the shower head could reach was my shoulder and even then the holder was loose and drooped slowly until the head fell out and hit me, so my boyfriend and I had to hold the shower head up for each other while we washed! The worst part was that for the first couple of minutes the water ran dark brown, then light brown, then rust colored until finally clear– it was so bad there was a greasy orange stain left in the basin. (It was like a scene out of a movie, I didn’t think that really happened!) The towels were like sandpaper, and had several different human hairs in them that were definitely not ours, but they smelled faintly of bleach so I figured they were at least sanitary. When we finally made it to bed the sheets were rough, but clean and we slept well despite the fact that his feet overhung the end of the bed by a several inches. The icing on the cake came the next morning when housekeeping banged on the door so loudly and aggressively that it sounded like we were being raided by the FBI. It was extreme, to the point that we both jumped out of bed and my hands were shaking I was so startled. We asked the woman to go away because we were sleeping and still had plenty of time before checkout, but a couple minutes later she did it again! That was my breaking point. I went to the office and complained to the manager who did sincerely apologize and assured me he would speak with the housekeeper and discounted my rate, but in the end I think we would have been better off sleeping in the car at a highway rest stop. I mean that sincerely. I have to mention though, that with the obvious exception of the housekeeper, the staff was very gracious and courteous throughout our ordeal and this alone kept this from being a one star rating.

Motel 6 has a saying «The lowest price of any national chain». They should add «The lousiest internet of any national chain»
I try to book Motel 6 because we like to travel with our pet. I don’t mind paying a little extra for internet but the code is only good for one devise. If I use the code on another computer it kicks the last one out. We travel with two tablets and two computers and the way Motel 6 internet works, it is not convenient for us.
Enough about the Internet, the room… the sink will not drain, the maid did not remove the trash from the room, the water is luke warm so no shower and every morning the traffic makes it very noisy. Consider staying here only if budget or work demands it.
Update: the towel bar fell off the wall when I grabbed for a towel in the shower.

Check every other motel or hotel in the area. This place is a haven for drug deals and prostitution. The Town of Leominster records have the proof. Do your research!

fine for $ 72 for 1 night. the room was clean but bare bones. $ 2.99 per day for WiFi. like another reviewer stated, the area is a little sketchy but not scary. you get what you pay for.

Motel 6 is a small but quite and also around everything you might need. I stayed here for one night and I had a good time. The room was warm and the people at the front desk was extremely nice. Also it was very cheep for a 19 year old

after a bad experience with the super 8, we wisked away to this palace, amazing how contrast change your perceptions. at $ 60 and available, we were very happy with a room that was worse, far worse than our house. we’re used to motels being nicer than our house!
very basic room, very cheap, near fast food for breakfast.
wifi is paid
there were noises outside, but they appeared to be benign, and the checkin was pretty friendly and helpful, or so it seemed.
no bed bugs. no rats, and no bugs.

Fair warning: I didn’t end up staying here, but here’re my thoughts anyhow.
Pro: Cheap, which should go without saying. It was basically $ 60 for a one night stay for one person for a queen size bed. Also, from a distance, the outdoor pool seemed clean and moderately-​sized.
Con:
1. Mad sketchy people hanging around the motel, which basically negates the idea of using the pool
2. Well meaning, but hard to understand receptionists
3. Slightly smelly non-​smoking room
4. Hairs in the bathroom of my «clean room»
5. The implied/​obvious main purpose of the motel as expressed by the four sections devoted to condoms in the vending machine
Yikes.

Not so great except for the pool

Since nobody else apparently wanted to share their opinions on this place, I guess I will be the first.
I stayed here awhile back in 2010 in the area and had to stay here because all of the other hotels were booked. I would give this place probably 2 ½ stars. The beds were reasonably comfy (but I did notice cigarette burns in the covers) the TV worked as well as the air conditioning. Maybe it is just me, but has anybody else noticed that most
budget motels have a Denny’s/IHOP next to them?
For a one night stay and if you are on a budget, It’s not too bad. I can’t comment on if the motel had breakfast or not because we left before/​after breakfast if they had it.
So to sum it up, it’s not too bad if your on a budget and need a place to stay.
