“Great Experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 1, 2012

This was a clean property: grounds and office with nice grass area for pets. The front desk staff, especially the early morning woman, were pleasant,helpful, and funny. Yes the rooms are small but have most of what you need (no coffee pots, no alarm in rooms) plus items that were a pleasant surprise like a micro and refrig. for no extra charge. With two beds in the room the beds are smaller and one is kind of against the ac unit but I only needed one bed so I easily slept on other bed. Because of a horrible experience at Super8 University in Reno I was only willing to book one night at a time. But with the good experience I ended up staying four days and the front were happy to extend my stay with no problems. The room was clean, and yes with bedbug issues I even checked under the mattress, in the corners lol, and even under the bed all areas were clean. There are some small glitches but its an inexpensive motel that has no pets fees or check in times. Everything, casinos to food even Starbucks, is all very close but most is not within walking distance.
I would just say, know you are not on the strip, its just an ok area but I felt safe. The rooms are clean but small with no frills but a micro n fridge at no charge but wifi is not free. Coffee is offered in office in the morning but not offered all day or in rooms. Its clean and most of the staff was not just cordial but happy, nice, funny, and helpful. Very pet friendly.

Room Tip: I stayed on a front (office side) corner away from highway, the room and area on that side is quiet...

“realy bad motel 6”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed May 7, 2012

OMG, never ever again!
Smelly room, dirty bed, unplasent staying there, feeling unsafe. Me and friend ware traveling across USA and sleep one day in Motel6 Reno. After that experience we have allways first ask if we can see the room that we would like to rent before paying for it. So bad motel that i have never seen before or after. All I whant for my money is a clean place to sleep. I dont care how big rooms are or how many TV programs that it have I just whant cleen bed and bathroom. After we chek out I told a guy on the counter that the room and bed was terrible dirty and his answer was that he know that and dont understand why did they give us dirty room. Thats 69$ i will never see again so as Motel6 will never see me again. We have slept in motels all over USA W coast and Nevada and this was the only dirty motel in our rute!
Motel6 will never see us again!

Room Tip: Good room is not in Motel6 Reno

“Not the shining star in Motel 6 chain”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed April 29, 2012

Full disclosure: we decided to stay an extra day in Reno and were able to extend the room by one night. We suppose we had the choice of switching to another motel (there are so many in Reno) but it was just more convenient not to pack and move. Having said that, this was a grim property. First, it is really hard to find. The signage leaving I-80 was OK but then vanished, leaving us to hunt for the building (Tip: turn downhill at the CVS). First one then both ice machines were out of order and the receptionist didn't know about one of them, claiming no, it's working," until we showed otherwise, when she then said "we are trying to figure that out." (???). The area is really noisy. I don't know which rooms would be best to avoid this, as it is like being right on the side of the highway. The aircon/heater unit ran right up into the side of one of the two beds, so whoever is in that bed is going to be putting up with that noise too.

Like all Motel 6's I have used, you have to pay extra for WiFi but the company they use only seems to have limited bandwidth and the connection broke down often--each time, hijacking the websites and leading back to the Motel 6 home page. And also the water-saving device on the sink's tap meant that the water comes out in a needle spray that is almost not wet. One amusing touch, though I don't think they meant it to be this way: the toilet flushes almost like an airplane toilet (Whooooooooooooshhhhhhhhhhh) but that's not a complaint!

A very no-frills property, not ever going to be the most memorable part of your visit.

“Decent inexpensive motel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 31, 2012

We were looking for an inexpensive nights stay because we were closed out of the Donner Pass. This suited us just fine. Pleasant, efficient ladies at the front desk, clean rooms and they accepted dogs. Just what we needed.

“If I could rate it a zero I would!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed December 22, 2011 via mobile

The "non-smoking" room reeked of cigarettes so badly we could hardly sleep. At dawn the traffic on the I-80 on ramp sounded like it was coming through the room. Coffee was cold. Not sure how this place earned earlier ratings, but not worth staying here at any price.
