Room was dirty , the keys do not work I had to get about 3 new keys within a 3 day stay. They supposedly deactivate every morning at 11am which doesn’t make sense for someone staying longer than one day. You mean to tell me I have to go to the front and get a new key every time I leave my room? Absolutely not! The water pressure from the sink is trash. The shower hot water does not work and the bathroom was the dirtiest I had to clean it myself. I thought because it was in Tempe this location would be maybe a bit more tidy or up to par and I was wrong.

I’m pretty sure the manager is having an affair with the cleaning lady as she called him from her cellphone to kick me out instead of going to the front desk and having the employee on duty talk to me about why my room wasn’t paid yet. Hey lady not your job. Stick to cleaning

They would rather kick you on the streets than work with you for being late to pay even though you’ve been giving them $80 daily for 3 weeks straight. That’s 1,680 dollars for them to never clean my room or let me use a mop myself. That’s $1680 to be tossed outside in 100 degree heat. I could have rented a one bedroom apartment for less than that(there’s reasons I couldn’t). Motel 6 doesn’t care about their customers at all. They take your money and bang on your door to kick you out. The best part I had the money for the room 15 mins later. Now I only want to put them out of business.

If you don’t ask them to clean your room they won’t clean it
I was not told I had to ask
I asked for towels and toilet paper since they didn’t clean the room
I asked a couple of times and no towels or toilet paper were brought to the room
I had to ask again at night when I was ready to take a shower

Stayed here during Arizona Bike Week and it worked out well for what I needed.

Location: Conveniently located right on Scottsdale Road, which made it easy to get around and ride to different spots.

Area: The surrounding area is a bit older. Not rundown, but there were a few sketchy folks around at times — nothing that caused issues, just something to be aware of.

Room: No frills, but honestly solid. Clean sheets, comfortable bed, and the shower and sink were clean, which is what matters most.

Value: Great price if you just need a place to crash for the night. I wasn’t looking for luxury, just a clean spot to sleep, and it delivered.

Bathroom light flickered and the shower squealed, but over all the property was adequate. Didn't feel like the best area but we had no issues and located near many attractions

I feel that for the price it could’ve been much better, however the staff was nice for the most part. I got the vibe that they didn’t wanna be there. The property definitely didn’t make me feel safe and the room was not in the most optimal condition my sheets were stained and there was previous blood stains as well in the bathroom the shower head wasn’t looking soo right and I could see mold in the shower walls/crack of it
Other then that it was ok could’ve been better I would only come stay for one night anymore and ur kinda just pushing it

I had to walk across the parking lot and have office staff reprogram my room entry card each night of my stay in the same room as the entry card I was given initially wouldnt grant me access to my room the following nights. The entry card also would not unlock the gate to the swimming pool. No towels, tp, or anything else was replenihed by housekeeping on any of my 3 day stay. The room should have been cheaper for the cheap experience I purchased.

While the staff was extremely friendly and helpful and the room had been cleaned, the property was in really rough shape. There was an old water leak in the ceiling just above the bed (2’ sq) that was poorly patched, the sheets and bed were reminiscent of 1973, the tops of the side table were lifted and warped, and the shower area showed mold that was covered by caulking. I had to stay near my health clinic during spring training in Scottsdale and hotels I usually stay at were booked or outrageously priced so my options were limited. Despite the nice staff I will never stay at this property again.

Check in is after 3pm. However when i got there at 4pm the front desk girl said that they're would be a 25m wait unit my room was ready...r u serious?

Yes she replies, there were short staffed. But i saw 4 cleaning ladies doing rooms. So how could they be short staffed considering they had all day to clear and clean rooms.

I asked if any other rooms were available and she replied i'd have to charge you extra...what?

No, so i waited when i came back 25m later. I still had 2 wait anther 10m.

The front desk girl was rude and unaccomdating to other guest about a late check out since she too had to wait 25m as well.

After that was settled the evening was fine.

Staff was not friendly at late check in, 10 pm. The floor in the room was very dirty. There were visible areas that were possibly mopped but it did not seem recent. The floor was only possibly mopped in the walk way. It was easy to see where the floor had not been cleaned in quite some time. We did not take off our shoes except to sleep. The furniture was visibly dirty on the lower portions. The bathroom floor was water logged and there was mold in the corner. On check out the staff seemed surprised that the floor was dirty. We have stayed in a lot of hotels and we understand about some issues, but the floor was nowhere clean enough for family to stay in.
