I didn’t even get a chance to stay at the hotel because the staff at the front desk was rude and very disrespectful had no compassion or empathy for my situation. I was stuck at the Newark airport for several hours and very disoriented when I spoke to Arctal I believe that’s the name I was given and all I asked was if I can get a room before the 3pm check in time. Of course that didn’t happen so I had to book somewhere else.

Property was horrible. I couldn’t even stay for 10 minutes. I walked in and turned around. Even though I didn’t stay, the attendant charged me $140.00 anyway. The beddings was terrible, the place is not worth the nearly $800.00 they were charging for 5 nights. I would never recommend it to anyone. So disappointed. Then the attendant became irritate when I refused to stay.

We arrived at Motel 6 late and were checked in quickly. Typical US motel. Reasonably large room, with comfy bed. Bathroom very dated. Air con worked well. Struggled to get any hot water from the shower. Motel is near a busy road and a very busy bar is only 100m away, so there is some noise. This motel was sufficient for our needs, but its only really a place for a one or two night stopover nearby to Newark Airport.

To visit New York City, it's a 1km walk to the NJ Transit Station (North Elizabeth) and then about 30 minutes on the train to PENN Station, New York.

Stayed four nights and no hot water. Reported it every morning but still had to take cold showers everyday. They use car park for valet parking for lounge/nightspot next door and cars parked 3-4 deep nightmare to get parking spot after 9pm. Should not say free breakfast included when non (not even coffee) available. Heard other guests complaining no hot water. Wouldn’t recommend or return.

Do not waste your time & money. Spend the extra $25 & get a better room/ definitely not worth $125 a night. Rooms & bathroom are really small & compact. just take one big step & that’s the entire room. Tub all rusted, holes in the wall, sink not even attached to the wall it wobbles. it’s regular open wood on sink not even painted, oh don’t try to open cabinet to put anything in it!! It’s no shelves on the bottom to hold anything anyway. Do not have microwaves buy your own I guess ( even though it’s advertised). Blankets thin as hell. Air conditioner make too much damn noise. Traveling a lot I’ve stayed in Motel 6 that was NOTHING like this. PICTURES NOT ADVERTISED! Everything needs to be updated & replaced. Why is there holes in the tub?? Paint coming up from it?? Faucet look like someone been nippling it chunks of metal gone. Do better & have the nerve to be $125 a night.

Well, the property is very unclean. The staff is very unprofessional. I think the room, as far as cleanness, was okay, not decent, not good, but it's okay. However, the hotel has a lot of noise, a lot of music at night, and is full of suspicious activities around, so I think it's a bad location to go to stay in.

This is not a place I would recommend unless you only need an overnight stay for the airport. The place doubles as a parking lot for the airport, and it is quite possible that you will be blocked in, or if you have to double park, you will get a knock on your door at who knows what time. His forbid you shall walk to someplace nearby and leave your vehicle behind. What parking there was, was very tight and you worry about walking out to a damaged vehicle. Vending was almost non existent. Outside noise could have been less. Cleanliness could have been a bit better. Housekeeping never showed while I stayed, for four nights.

First and foremost parking was terrible! Then while trying to check in the gentleman at the front desk was on his phone the whole time. When we finally got to our room, there was no refrigerator no microwave. The ceiling was coming down in the corner. The bathroom felt like an after thought. The tub was not full-size. It was barely enough room for one. The bedding had burn marks. there was dust everywhere. I will never stay at this location ever again.
On top of it, our neighbor to the left I’m pretty sure was living there as she was outside, barely dressed with her cat and when we tried to pass to go use the stairs, she looked at us like we were the problem

This motel misses the Motel 6 promise of “a clean, comfortable room with great service ” by a LONG SHOT! The room was filthy: the rug black with tracked-in asphalt from a sloppy parking lot paving job; the motel parking slots filled with spillover from the adjacent airport parking area (I was glad I didn't have a car); the shower temperature control didn't work properly; chewing gum was on one chair seat; there were long black hairs on both chairs and the in the shower. The staff were unhelpful in the extreme, disinterested, and rude -- the airport shuttle driver disappeared inside the shuttle trailer office without a word, leaving passengers with planes to catch in the van for 15 minutes. He reappeared, chewing, only when I pounded on the door. Even then he claimed he had only been inside for 5 minutes until I pointed at my watch and said I had timed him.

I have written to Motel 6 about this. In the future, I will be sure to look up reviews of any Motel 6 I am considering booking a room in.

Due to an airport shut down from a storm, we had to find a place with 2 rooms to stay overnight. The reservations were made online and when we called to confirm, no one answered. We tried again and reached someone; we asked if there was a shuttle service, they said yes. What they didn't tell us was that the shuttle was a van with the name Apex on it. So we did not get on the first time it came around. We called again and then again to finally get someone to answer and then we were told this vital piece of information. When we arrived exhausted, no one was at the front desk, there was no bell and again the phone was not answered the first time. Even more disgusting was that the man in front of us checking in was asked to pay over $400 for the night. We got to our rooms and were mortified. The filth and stale smell in the first room was made worse by the beeping of the fire alarm in the room. The person at the desk said just to unplug it. The second room where my parents stayed had graffiti on the wall reading \"I love drug dealers\". The jacuzzi tub looked like it was breeding a colony of mold. We felt unsafe and did not sleep, but there was nowhere else to go. It was disgusting and when we finally got home we treated our clothing and luggage with disinfectant. I will never stay in a motel 6 or any hotels in that hotel chain. They obviously do not care about safety, service, or cleanliness and were happy to price gouge due to this airport shutdown.

The bathroom toilet chain was broke, so the toilet did not work. There was mold and mildew running down the wall from the ceiling to the floor. There were roof panels missing, and the ceiling insulation was falling in. We asked to swap to another room they gave us a hard time. Tried to jack up the price, but then accommodated us in the room which just the same as the other one.
