I booked on the Expedia website for Motel 6 Las Vegas Tropicana . . . Since i travel with my Siberian Forest Cats, Motel 6 is the "go to lodging" choice. Informed when checking in that "cats are not permitted" ONLY DOGS . Expedia web page shows "pet friendly" . . .Did not feel welcome at the check in reception counter, nor any patience. Asked for a refund, received cancellation doc referencing "change of plans" or some such. NOPE since Motel 6 Tropicana not permitting cats I had to locate another lodging option on a Saturday night IN LAS VEGAS . . . NOT A FRIENDLY ENCOUNTER, but told that no cats is their pet policy, AND IT'S WRITTEN DOWN ON THEIR WEBSITE.
I was shocked!! AND called Expedia to help with my refund, as I did not trust the staff at Motel 6 Tropicana.

For all who don’t know. This was the Howard Johnson, but if you’ve been going to Vegas a lot longer than me before the Howard Johnson, it was apart of Motel 6 as a huge property. Apparently since the last time I was in Vegas (about a year) the old Motel 6 was turned into a Studio 6 and the Howard Johnson was turned back into the Motel 6. So make sure your going to the right building because I didn’t know and the studio 6 people told me I was in the wrong place. But anyways I went to the right place which I remember when it was HJ as I stayed at both places before and I get there and the lady tells me the TV’s don’t work and I need to place $100 CASH deposit. I ended up not checking in and went somewhere else. But as a former guest of this place (remember I stayed at the first itteration of Motel 6 & when it was the HJ. This place isn’t very good, but is a good place when you want to stay in Vegas on a budget.

The room smelled like weed even though it said non-smoking. The hair dryer was burnt and not working. But it is a room and you will be able to sleep and take a shower.

There is a 100$ CASH deposit. They do have an ATM on site for this transaction. However I do not remember seeing it listed when I booked which was part of the reason why I booked. The flooring in the room was a bit suspect it looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in weeks minimum. The ice machines were either missing or inoperable mostly. But for the price you pay, you cannot really expect full blown luxury I suppose.

The rate was good and the location was excellent for my business trip. However, having to put a $100 cash deposit down was disappointing and I only had 2 stations on the TV that went out intermittently. Also, the WI-FI kept disconnecting. This was so bad I didn't even stay the last night I moved hotels since my trip got extended 1 week. When I asked about the TV the staff was like yep sounds about right. The TV was only 32" while the first room had a 50" screen. I was very disappointing since I needed the WIFI to use my computer.

1st of all there was a 100 dollar cash deposit that was not disclosed anywhere prior to except for in the reviews that I read. My room had no garbage can, the TV came on but nothing came in and when I went to get ice in the spot shown on the map I was given, there wasn't even a machine there so I went to the next spot, found one but it was empty. I then ran into a lady with a clipboard who looked important. She said there should be ice in one of the machines and that people were filling up coolers. I told her about the TV, she said its probably the wind. (There was a slight breeze) I told her about the no garbage can and she did say someone would bring me one and they did 5 minutes later. I noticed later in the bathroom corners there was dirt and on the bed the next morning that I was sleeping in the sheet had a big cigarette burn. We had the room for 2 days and I didn't say anything because we had a lot going on and didn't want to have to wait around and at this point I really didn't feel comfortable to give the ok for someone to be in my room without me being there. When I checked out they actually checked the room before handing me back my 100 bill. I had to laugh but I also noticed signs now that say they require the cash deposit and I'm pretty sure now there's also signs saying they no longer take debit or apple pay. Next time I will definitely be looking at other hotel options.

The bathroom floor had hair from previous guest- just gross. The remote control was missing, once one was delivered the TV had terrible reception. The vending machine was out of bottled water. Line at check in long due to only one employee at front desk.

Very inhumane and ruthless staff. Threatened my 84 yr old mother that police will be called to throw her out of room after an error made by their front desk clerk
Kayla
who twisted the narrative & blamed me for the mess/ error she herself made.

Checked in initially for 4 days but on a per day basis when reserved -hence i clarified & cleared w/ front front desk ( Kayla) if all is okey & if i need to check in per day but she assured me “ nothing to worry all is fine , you are all set & paid - and that i only need to put in 100$ as deposit which i did.
After 2 days -a staff went to our room , rudely informed my naive/ 84 yr old mom that the 2nd day is not paid . Mom panicked & begged stating “my daughter is not here what shall i do now?
Staffer threatened Mom that they'll call police and will be thrown away of the room.Mother called me very scared
Of the staffer’s warning.

This caught me off guard & pissed
coz i was assured that all is taken cared of since day one like any hotel check ins should be.
. I spoke with the staffer on phone ( claiming to be the manager)explaining the assurance front
Desk gave me but staffer sound mean, inconsiderate/ sounding determined to throw my mom out. Since im in the middle of an event to drive back - i offered my credit card to pay & settle the issue but staffer will not accept. I rebooked/ paid then w/ all the struggle /stress i endured , the higher price then just to save my mom to be thrown away of the room.
Horrible !

The room floor was dirty, my socks were black, and trying to get clean towels was a mission itself, I asked the housekeeping and they told me to call up front, they were so busy up front they never answered my call. I went up there to get clean towels they told me to ask housekeeping, pretty much got the run around. And they could at least put 2 toilet paper in the rooms. But other than that, it was alright, felt bad for the little dog above me, it was crying most of the night. I give a 3 star.

First of all the drive in from Tropicana is very narrow but set up for 2 way traffic. Causes a lot of congestion at the choke point by the front desk area were traffic has to stop and wait for oncoming traf One staff person at check in was so rude I almost turned around and left. There was a nicer young lady that actually helped check us in. Parking is definitely for sedans and smaller. The rooms were anything but sound proof. You could hear every footstep from at least 3 of the rooms above us. The tub fiberglass was chipped and cracked. A slip would probably lay your foot open. Our stay here was just to save us the 2 hour drive it takes us to get to the airport. We are not gamers and stayed in after dinner. I walked around the room in my stocking feet that evening. When I removed my socks the bottoms were blackened. I don’t think that floor has seen a mop on some time. The bedding, surprisingly, was clean but the mattresses slipped around on the platform they sat on. The TV reception was shoddy. Even the channels designated as cable had several bad reception issues. Adding to the sound misery was the helicopters that flew overhead all night. As we left the parking lot at 4:30 am with none of the sleep we had hoped for, I asked my wife if we had just been in an episode of Breaking Bad or Cops. I will not only not stay here ever again, but I will also most likely not stay at a Motel 6 ever just to make sure I don’t have as unpleasant a stay we did here.

You need $100 cash for deposit no where is that listed on here but posted right at the counter. Also we arrived early stoped to ask when can we possibly do early check in they said 1 we went back at 1 and then they said no early check ins. So we had to wait another 2 hrs . Also the floors are super dirty in rooms. The staff was rude never had to provide multiple ids for a check in ever well they asked and i was Surprised and said oh that’s crazy and the lady got smart about it . Asking me “why is that so crazy it’s our policy” i said Okay i understand but i never Heard of that ever and we stayed at thousands of hotels and motel 6. She then got smart and said “well it’s our policy” my husband handed over his id as we weren’t even refusing. Just stating we thought it was odd and crazy.

So be sure you bring cash ! And have eveyones ID .

Make sure to bring cash. Per their policy, they require a cash only $100 deposit. They do have ATM there for you, but of course it charges you for using it then on top of that your bank is gonna charge you for using a non-branch ATM. Nowhere in the check-in instructions does it tell you of this.

Is it the BEST place to stay in Las Vegas? No. But it does the job. Price at booking was decent compared to everything else in the surrounding area. Room was clean upon arrival. Check in you need to have $100 cash for deposit. I was kinda sketch out so I asked the girl working there why? She said it’s independently owned so they make their own rules kinda. Whenever payed the deposit. Just make sure EVERYONE on the reservation checks in, no damage or smoking in rooms and you’ll get the money back. Free parking, close to the MGM and can take the tram. Pet friendly. Does the job if not staying long

We had to change rooms and they're pretty accomodating with regards to our concerns. The rooms are clean with hair dryers in each room as well. Pretty good hotel if you're up for just a quick stay in the Strip. Parking was also included.

We didn’t use the air conditioner but the room is old, light in the bathroom was out. The room stunk of old cigarette. The bed was too soft and they had plastic covering the mattress. That actually gave me a bit of comfort in terms of bugs etc but it was not a nice feeling to sleep on. The walls were paper thin, very noisy and we were on the ground floor so every car that parked we had their lights shining in our room. We also heard the horn as they locked/unlocked their car. Obviously did not enjoy the stay at all. Go elsewhere

Their cable TV has not worked during 3 visits over the last 12 months. I routinely request $15/night discount for the TV not working. Play the dance and change rooms, after that get an authorization for the discount from management.
$100 cash deposit required at check-in is not stated on this property's Hotels.com listing or their policies anywhere.

The only Motel 6 I've ever been to that requires a $100 CASH deposit which they give back to you the next day provided you remember to go get it. They do this knowing that high percentage of their guests will forget to go in to get their $100 deposit and there's no way to get it back once you leave town. THEY WILL NOT GET IT BACK TO YOU unless you ask for it in person. I Extremely disappointed in Motel 6 for allowing this type of Bad Business practice.
