Motel 6

Nothing says stay here like three or more cop cars in the morning when you take your dog potty. We pulled in last night and ugh… while it was definitely better outside than mesa south location (basically a glorified crack house) it was still lacking in the i feel comfortable taking my dog outside department. We figured oh well. Lock everything, and it’s just the night.
Room…Yuck. I love that motel 6 had installed laminates instead of carpet. Hotel carpet Is just nasty. And laminates is so easy to clean! Si is very frustrating when a room is super dirty. There were crayon pieces on the floor, some questionable tampon looking item my dog found under the bed and was gnawing on, hair in the bathroom, and visible debris everywhere.
The room smelled very smoky, and like most non smokers any hints of that smell give me issues. The ac smelled like a cigarette was just blowing stinky air in the room that made both my husband’s asks myself have raw throats in the morning. His was deserved for violently open mouth snoring all night!
Cigarette burns everywhere. Stains on blankets. Sketchy area. ironically next to a mini golf course, paid internet that seemed to slow down and then totally quit on me, just stay somewhere else if you can!

DO NOT STAY HERE!!! Booked hotel through
. Requested a non smoking room and we arrived at 2am, as soon as we drove up there was people (drug dealers/​people getting high) hanging out in the front and all along the stairs, as we walked towards our room we can smell the stench of cigarettes! It was even worse when we opened the door. Luckily we were able to cancel our reservation and get our money back! Never again!!!

Stayed here to go to an event in Phoenix. The area was not horrid but this Motel 6 was just this side of OK. The room said non smoking but you could tell the room had been a smoking room (funny thing was it said no smoking but there were ashtrays in the room) We got to horrible beds that sounded like crunching paper when you got in and moved around in them. The sheets felt like they were washed in straight starch. And for 2 people in a room with 2 beds there was 1 hand towel and 2 bath towels. There was a couple of long stray hairs in the tub. We only paid 55.00 for the room I think we got over-​charged. Live and learn. We had a reservation at the La Quinta and it was 40.00 more… we should have paid that.

I had a horrible experience at this place. Room had fake hard wood floor with crumbs and hairs everywhere. Appeared like it hadn’t ever been swept. Bathroom had long hairs next to the tub. Bed sheets and pillows had stains on them. Bed spread had cigarette burns in it. Air conditioner stopped working half way through the night. Found a plastic tearoff piece of a panty liner behind the night stand. Dead bug smashed into the wall behind door. Tweakers and really sketchy people walking around the hotel. I would advise anyone to keep going and not stay at this hotel!
I told desk clerk and she said, «it sounds like no one even cleaned the room.»

We had to switch to this hotel after running from a different one. The Manager was very helpful and all around a great guy. The staff was friendly and helped where needed. Even though we had to witness a horrible attack/​dispute between two people, it was a great place to stay. The pool is warmed so we was able to swim even at 9am!

I attempted to book a room at this establishment via phone a couple days ago. The process was unnecessarily tedious including them faxing me a form, me faxing it, my card, and my license back to them, and having to repeat because it came out too dark. Finally the manager gets involved and decides to have me send a picture of everything via my phone. The email never makes it to them, and I double and triple checked the address provided. This means now my information is floating around on the net somewhere, not a happy feeling. I pointed out that I spend more money on take out from grub hub than this room will cost without jumping through so many hoops and the manager says he doesn’t like my tone and is denying my friends a room. Then he hangs up. No thank you for calling, an «I am done with you» hang up. Everyone in the room with me was shocked at how rude he was.
So maybe its just me, but I am pretty sure no one in a management position should simply hang up the phone like that. I called back and asked for his supervisors contact information and he hung the phone up on me again. I KNOW you should never do that to a customer.
Long story short: rude, incompetent staff including the manager. Do not stay here, there are a ton of other cheap options out there.

I am NOT having good luck with my cheapie motels this trip. First I get a room at the Chandler Inn, which I have successfully stayed at before, that had hairs in the bathtub, a broken bed frame, and dirty female underwear stashed in the bathroom sink cabinet, then I check into the Motel 6 in Mesa that I have stayed at previously (though years ago) and the first room they assign me to has all the lights on, totally disheveled, unmade beds, trash in the wastebaskets, etc, obviously not cleaned since the previous occupants, and the room they re-​assign me to has hairs all over the hardwood floors throughout, tiny hairs in and around the sink and even a few on the sheets, though they do look washed.
You should not put hardwood floors in a motel room if you are not going to clean them properly.
And what’s up with all the TV remotes everywhere I go being sticky, greasy and dusty? They should include a wipedown with a sanitizing wipe in their daily cleanup.
On top of that the room above me sounds like it has hardwood floors as well with a family of kids running back and forth on them (I got here at 10:30pm and it’s nearly midnight now). It’s a non-​smoking room but still smells like smoke as if it is coming in from other rooms through the ventilation system. I will not be staying here another night.
The only good thing was the front desk clerk was very nice.
Is it that hard to find good housekeeping employees these days? With all the unemployment you’d think they could find better.
