As a future law enforcement agent, I had the pleasant pleasure of staying over one night. I had one night there and that was enough for me. I smoke so I obviously was given a smoking room. I went to the bathroom and there was burn marks on the side of the bathtub next to the toilet as previous motel... More

Stayed here for two nights in August 2011 and although it was hardly five star, had a perfectly pleasant stay. The hotel lobby is basic and fine and the staff were pleasant enough upon check in and out. The staircases and hallways are a little dated but clean and nice enough. The room was very spacious and the bed was... More

Every year I take a road trip with my dog and need a place to stay around Albany. Motel 6 allows dogs and I've chosen to stay here. I was surprised to read the negative reviews. As someone who travels a ton, I guess I don't have high expectations for a motel 6, but assume I'll get a clean no... More

We booked this hotel on our way to visit Hamilton College. Although we needed sleeping accomodations for a party of three, we were given one king bed. The woman at the reservation desk was rude, but after some light conversation, she loosened up. Our room was changed. It was a last minute decision and we booked through priceline. The money... More

Me and my Partner were travelling from Niagara to New York. We were getting rather tired so we decided to pull over and stay at the Motel 6. OK, it was a cheap enough night, but considering what you got not really worth it. The room itself was OK. It was basic but clean. However, the rest of the hotel... More

The parking lot was like swiss cheese. The check in person was helpful recommending a good pizza place to order from. When I got to the room, the sign outside said no smoking, but the hallway stunk of cigarette smoke. The room had an ashtray and the comforter had cigarette burn holes in it. The room itself was clean. Smelled... More

I was there for the NY bar exam. I made the reservations 6 months in advance. I was promised certain accommodations (such as an extra desk and chair for my friend that stayed in the room with me, so we can both study before the exam) however, when I got there I was shocked to discover that, not only were...

My husband and I stayed overnight in this hotel, along with another couple, on our way to New England. After reading some of the reviews, I was a little worried. (reports of bedbugs, etc.) However, it was very acceptable for us. We did have a noisy group next door, but when we called the desk to complain it was taken... More
