This property was under low standards,when I booked it said there was a pool,breakfast included and the rooms looked nice on the website but the truth was it was ran down,crackheads rented the whole thing,the pool was empty and surrounded by a broken fence,the rooms had dirty walls,tubs,sinks,and cigarette burns on blankets!no pillowcases on pillows,dirty towels and floors,broken cabinets everything about this place was a lie the brochure looked nothing like the motel and to top it all off it said it would be read by 11am for check in and we got there at 4pm from a 8 hour travel and still had to wait to check in after I booked early online!athen I had to spend more money for a walk in hotel (that was great by the way)that I shouldn’t have had to pay for I’m very upset and deserve a refund!

Unfortunately, the hotel room was close to disgusting. I had to ask for a cleaning spray so I can clean the table and the microwave, which was smelly and disgusting. The floors were covered by a layer of dirt. I realized this after I spilled some juice on the floor, and when I cleaned it, the paper towels were absolutely dirty and nasty.

Unfortunately, I was on a bit of a hurry, so I found this property last minute. But had I known that the people that stay there were, wow… I felt unsafe. Not recommended.

I asked a room that don't need to use the stairs because of my walking difficulties when I book this hotel but they don't give that. They only clean our room after we checked in. We wait for so long to clean our room. There's a lot of bed bugs. I got a lot of bed bugs bite. Don't stay at this hotel.

The room was dirty. The bathroom was very dirty. Towels were dirty. The bedclothes were ripped and did not look clean. Location does not look safe. The overall experience was terrible. Will never stay here again and does not recommend unless you are working in the area and do not care about cleanliness.

We didn't stay. We canceled the reservation. When we pulled and about every room looked to be occupied by long term guest. People were all outside and all over the parking lot. The smell of weed was overwhelming. The attendant was outside with all the people. When he came in he couldn't find us in the computer. When he finally did he said it would be another 15 mins. Even though it was an hour after check in. Mean while one guy was threatening another guy. He was talking about everyone that was wanting to jump him.

We did not feel safe. And it didn't look clean.I contacted Hotels.com. They contacted the district manager to get the reservation canceled at no charge. Since we had planned to pay at the property and hadn't checked in yet.

Hotels.com went above and beyond to help. I do not recommend this hotel at all.

Before I arrived I call to let them I was on the way. In which i booked it online and it said I can pay at the place. Why did they try to go in my account to get the money before I arrived. Not only that the room haven't been clean yet, but I still checked the room anyway. The mattress was filthy and had a hole in it and the mattress cover had stains on it. All sorts of people was roaming the parking That hotel need to be shut down. RED ALERT: NEVER MAKE RESERVATION AT A HOTEL ONLINE AND THE PICTURES ARE DIFFERENT WHEN YOU GET THERE. CHECKED IN ANOTHER HOTEL THANK GOD

Absolutely awful property. Was given a room that smelled like vomit and was filthy, with visible dirt on the floor and walls. Two tiny pillows were placed on a bed that looked lived in. It was unacceptable and we were given the last available room. We, two nonsmokers, were placed in a smoking room so thick with the odor, we could barely stand it. Bed was fairly hard with two tiny, inadequate pillows and a thin sheet. The walkways and stairwells were filthy and smelled of urine and unstable with rusted stair treads. On a positive note, the WiFi, shower, TV and A/C worked well.

This was the worst place I have ever stayed. It was covered in homeless people. It was dirty. There were no pillow cases on the bed nor a blanket. There was a nail sticking out of the wall. Someone shot a gun next door in the middle of the night. It was terrible. I was genuinely scared for my life.

Stay away from this property if you are traveling to Portsmouth. The property is filled with long-term residents with a cast of characters from skid row. Some folks were smoking pot under the staircase going to the second floor. Between 3:30-4:00 AM, concert volume rap filled with expletives was blasted through out the compound. Consequent irritability caused by Lack of sleep from the loud music must have been the reason the residents started arguing almost continuously outside our door from 7 AM. Not the type of drama we were looking for on our vacation! We gave our microwave perhaps its first cleaning ever. The shower curtains were covered in mildew and the bathroom door was broken.

The stay was good. Me and wife wanted to get away. This was what we needed. At checking in was a little problem but the manager was very helpful. My room was $145.50 for 2 nights. But for all the mistakes. They charge us only $98.00 So I'm waiting on $47.50. That's the difference. Thanks for everything.

I cannot tell you how scary this place was. Literally, there were drug dealers and addicts swarming the campus from the time I checked in, to 1 am when I returned from my business engagement. If I were you, I would not list this hotel on your site. I had to step over addicts passed out on the steps and was being watched by multiple people, not guests, whenever I got into and out of my vehicle. It was mortifying.

The lady that works in the office is the best part about this hotel. She's very nice and understanding. The first thing I noticed when I pulled up was the amount of people outside; most were smoking weed and some were walking around aimlessly, obviously high. Someone was playing loud music from their car. After getting to my room; I noticed that the latch to lock the door was missing so I went to request another room; which was granted. After entering that room, I noticed that there was hair all over the sink and dog urine on the floor. At that point, I was over it so I asked for a refund. The manager had an attitude but he gave me my money back. One thing to note is that you have to pay a $25 refundable pet deposit.

Worst Motel 6 I Ever Stayed At

The room had dirty towels, TV didn't work, shower knob kept falling off, bed head board was loose and broken. This was room 211. In 5 days the room was never cleaned, trash never taken out, and never any fresh towels. I actually went out and bought some because the ones provided were filthy. Sketchy people partying, playing loud music all hours of the night. Trash was shattered everywhere outside.

Worst motel ever

Worst motel I’ve ever stayed in. Very scary part of town. The pool covered with tarp in August. Charged $50 deposit after paying for room online. Only 1 pillow on 2 full beds. The air conditioning hardly worked. Bathroom door wouldn’t even close. Shower and tub too dirty and rusty to use. TV would not turn off. I could go on but you get the idea, find another place to stay!

Don’t stay here!!!

I spent 3 months traveling across the country couple years ago. I stayed at a few Motel 6 and they were all fine places. This was not the case at this Motel 6! Upon seeing it on the street the Motel 6 sign was decrepit, the pool had a tarp over it as if it was winter(it’s August!). The check in was exceedingly slow. I found later when I got an alert from Citi bank that a charge of $69.47 was made by the front desk clerk tho had already paid thru Hotels.com. Went back to the office in evening and night person said the earlier clerk had credited it! HE NEVER TOLD ME WHAT HE HAD DONE! Also of course I haven’t seen the credit yet! I have filed a dispute with Citi. Also the clerk asked for a $50 deposit. A reputable hotel does not do that!! Of course I haven’t seen that credit either! The room: oh boy! It was clean however it had nothing in it! A large bed with two tiny pillows, one small kitchen type chair, no chest of drawers, no hangers, and no ice bucket! And the tv was a mess! A very helpful woman came by to work on it but the fix did not last long no matter what I did. In sum a perfect room for monk! I would suggest Hotel.com STOP listing this place!! The only good thing(and why I chose it) is that it is walking distance to Olde Towne and downtown restaurants. But while there I noticed others nearby that gave the appearance of a MUCH BETTER establishment!

Just wow!

My family booked 2 rooms one for my Aunt who experienced a terrible night. It’s a good thing she and her fiance were together or else she may have had a heart attack. Someone at her door was knocking and also the windows. When she saw a guy wearing black around 11;00pm and then another guy knocked around 1&2:00am! When she called the frontdesk the lady said just don’t open the door. And when I confirmed with her around 3:00am she said she did not see anyone at their cctv.

This was the worst experience I have had at a hotel/motel. When I arrived in the room, I had been traveling so I went straight to the bathroom. The tub faucet was dripping heavily. I tried to turn the faucet off, but that did not stop the dripping. I went to the office and told the front desk person about this and he told me that it was OK. I explained that no it was not because I would have to sleep with that dripping noise. He then asked if I had done anything in the room. Being a bit confused by this question, I stated I had only gone to the bathroom and that’s how I had discovered the dripping faucet. He then stated he could just put me in another room. Upon entering this new room, the TV was on but the volume was almost off. I tried to change the channel, and turn the volume up, but the remote did not work. The TV was mounted on the wall, and I am short, so I couldn’t reach any biting on the tv. I did not feel safe here. I was in town to visit my son and his family so I went to his home and returned close to midnight. Upon entering the room for the night, I saw a roach and killed it and then saw another one in the bathroom. Coming out of the bathroom, I went to adjust the air and saw another roach. I went back to the bed and saw a fourth roach between the beds. I should have left then, but it was too late at night. I could hear people outside all night. It seemed like a place where people were living. If I could give it zero stars, I would.

When I reached room around 7.30 pm, they said room is yet to clean and will take one hour at least. But ideally room check-in should be at 3 pm.I went to shopping and also finished dinner instead of waiting at lobby. When I back around 9.30 pm, the room lock was not opening and they called technician and given the room around 10.50 pm. The room condition is very bad, lot of cockroaches in the room and bathroom was very dirty

Bed bugs and Beyond

When we first arrived, we were given a room in which was occupied by another customer staying at the hotel. We were told that the people hadn’t cleaned the room, mind you the people stuff was still in there. After given the room beside it, we had problems with infestation the whole time, plus I am partially handicapped on my left side so wasn’t able to use the bathroom shower as it wasn’t accessible.

very poor customer service by Motel 6 & Hotels.com

I had a family illness emergency the day before my planned trip. I, and Hotels.com agents, tried contacting the hotel to request waiver of the cancellation fee (starting ~430p) , given the situation, to no avail. I tried calling repeatedly until 10a on the day of anticipated arrival; I, nor Hotels.com agent could never get a desk clerk. I ultimately forfeiting the 1st night's fee..... I'm very disappointed with the hotel and Hotels.com.....

The place is a little run down. All of the pillows have yellow sweat stains and flat. The floors in the room was dirty. There was no shampoo or conditioner. The towels are very limited and thin/dry. I have better towels to wash my dog. Me and my son experienced bug bits after staying. For $100-ish a night its a nightmare. Spend that extra $30 and treat your self to a place that still has quality in mind. It seems this place only caters to the street workers and tired old men.

I hate to leave a bad review, especially because the staff were so nice!! I chose this stay because of the pet policy (2 free dogs). However, I was unfamiliar with the location and should have rethought booking at this location. I felt a little unsafe staying here with my dogs and did not once take them out on the property. We drove our dogs across the street to let them go to the bathroom. This is no fault of the hotel but one of the guests in the room above us was screaming late at night into the morning hours and was arrested. Waking up to screaming/ yelling and 3 police cars made for a very stressful night. No hot water at the time of one of my showers and limited towels. The staff is the only saving grace of this review they were nice, polite and professional. I recommend spending the extra $$ if you’re traveling with pets and avoiding this location.

False advertisement!!!

When I got to the hotel at 3pm both of my rooms weren't ready. Me and my kids were tierd from the long drive and still our rooms werent ready until about 5pm. We stayed for 5 days and 4 nights and not once was our room cleaned or our sheets changed. The room came with a kitchen and no dishes or pots.That wasnt told to me when I called to inquire about them room. So I brought all this food but couldn't cook it. Pictures and descriptions of the room showed that it came with a full refrigerator which also was a lie. I also called and asked and was told theu do but both room only had a mini fridge. The only good thing was the size and space. The staff were nice but the overall service was trash.

PROS: The staff was so nice and was very accommodating, the room was very clean and very large.

CONS: it appears and I could totally be wrong that perhaps they just bought the property because they were so nice and the property was super clean but there were cigarette burns everywhere, the mattress for the couch bed looked and smelled like a sewer pool and it appears people were living at the hotel with Large groups of noisy people kids’ bikes dogs barbecues all around

All that being said if I was in the area I would stay there again because I expect that they will make it better very soon
