Reviews for Motel 6 Memphis Downtown

Review 1:Unsafe area old dilapidated furniture with a "Goodwill" Smell.Elevator so raggedy it squeaked and made noise. Just a blight on Memphis

Review 2:We checked out immediately. It was nothing like what was represented onbooking.com. Staff was courteous but they had nothing to work with.That's a shame for a beautiful fun. City like Memphis. And theyhosted a major college bowl

Review 3:Stayed here for St. Jude Marathon only because everything else was booked. Room smelled terrible. Sheets and linens were old and disgusting. Very small room. Never would recommend to anyone.

Review 4:Staff was nice!

Review 5:Room was filled with a very overwhelming bleach smell upon arrival, we had to have the door open to unpack. The bath, toilet and sink were clean but the place is so old and run down it must be hard for the housekeepers to put lipstick on a pig. The place is in serious need of paint, new carpets, silicone repairs and a freshen up. The top covers had cigarette burns in so they need to update those but the sheets were clean

Review 6:Location can't be beat for the price as far as distance to downtown, wouldn't suggest walking it at night though and the front desk lady was great, very friendly

Review 7:Clean room, very easy check in and check out. Location was great, but if you're in Memphis YOU NEED A CAR. Can't stress this enough! Roads are wide and everything is very spread out with very little public transport.

Review 8:The room was shabby. My towels had all different kinds of other people's hairs stuck to them. The shower light/fan sounded like a rocket was taking off inside the wall, the floors hadn't been properly swept or vacuumed.

Review 9:The location had conveniences around it (Walgreens, gas station, food, etc) which was appreciated.

Review 10:There were some guys hanging out outside our door, would've been nice to have an upstairs room as requested.

Review 11:Did exactly what it said on the tin, felt pretty safe at most times. Staff were helpful and fellow guests were pleasant.

Review 12:The stuff for house keeping was not very nice she woke me up by knocking hard the door and yelling for housekeeping. When I open the door never apologize. That's the only thing I don't like from my stay in your motel 6.

Review 13:I like the ambiance of the room. But the TV need to upgrade for HDTV and need microwave in the room and fridge. Then my stay should be perfect.

Review 14:The mattress cover came off the edge of the mattress, oh my. Except to sleep we were never in the room.

Review 15:We were greeted nicely. Annette at the front desk was friendly and efficient. Room was clean. Looked at it in advance which was encouraged and not an issue. We walked to Beale Street and biked to Riverfront and Overland Park. It is on a bus route. There were all sort of concerning comments. We are biking the length of the Mississippi River and in 52 days will have stayed in bed and breakfasts, luxury and casino hotels...non were better values. We stayed three nights during labor day weekend. Memphis is great ... it is a model room...don't spend much time in it. Have lots of money left over to enjoy Memphis.

Review 16:We had to change rooms as the toilet was broken. The second room we moved to the sink had not been cleaned - had bear hair around it and also what looked like snot on it.

Review 17:I tried to cancel my Friday and Saturday booking since my father who is in a terminal stage of lung cancer was transferred to a different unit at the VA hospital up the road. The woman at the counter said I couldn't cancel my Friday booking and would have to come back in the morning before 12 to cancel my room for Saturday.

Review 18:It was close to the VA hospital. Affordable and they have cable. The quick mart at the gas station next door and the nearby fast food places and Walgreens make for convenience. There is also a Chinese restaurant across the street.

Review 19:We enjoyed the stay while there, but after leaving everyone had bug bites, from bed bugs

Review 20:Location was great!! Close enough to downtown, only a 4$ uber ride

Review 21:Room was supposed to be non smoking, but strongly smelled of smoke. There were also very loud noises coming from the pipes on and off throughout the evening that made it difficult to sleep.

Review 22:A/C did not cool the room, water in sink did not have any pressure, only had 1 chair in the room and that was for the desk, needs to be updated.

Review 23:Close to places we wanted to visited, friendly and very helpful staff, very quite at night. Room was clean but outdated. For a short stay it was good.

Review 24:The whole place was just a little run down, and it looked like they only did the decor part if the recent chai wide renovation.

Review 25:The ladies at the front counter were very friendly.

Review 26:I usually book budget accommodation accepting it wont be great but all I expect is it to be clean. This place is not. Towels had dirty marks on them and when we asked for different ones, they were even dirtier.

Review 27:Nothing.

Review 28:No coffee making facilities and no fridge in room,it was very hot during our stay and a fridge would have been nice.

Review 29:Staff very friendly and helpful, especially Patty on reception.

Review 30:The bed was horribly uncomfortable, there was no breakfast or coffee, the lady at the front desk was so concerned about my safety that she put me right near the front desk and the location was very hard to find. A bad part of town! Not well lit and no defined dog area for them to use.

Review 31:I was able to have my pets in my room. 2 Bigger dogs. The front desk clerk at night was very friendly and accommodating.

Review 32:Dirty sheets, only 1 towel in room, no iron and if u need extra anything you has to walk and get it. Staff would not bring upstairs

Review 33:The front desk staff was decent.

Review 34:people laughing (probably drunk) outside woke us up at 2 a.m.; finally subsided after a half hour or so

Review 35:Very secure lock, single mom, so it was nice to feel safe

Review 36:The room was dirty, blankets and sheets have never been cleaned and werefull of hair. The toilet didn't work. Motel's costumers were ofdubious reputation and kept screaming and yelling all night long, evenknocking randomly other doors (mine included). The motel staff doesnothing to prevent it. Motel's public areas were moreover dirty andsmelled of urine. The price (57$) was way too high for this very badquality service.

Review 37:Nothing

Review 38:The bed should have been replaced about 10 years ago, T.V. Was very outdated too small. My only two complaints.

Review 39:It was safe, clean room, very comfortable. Also great location in Memphis was centrally located. Property was light well.

Review 40:It's a bit of a walk into town, but I was only there for a day so only had to walk it once in either direction and it was fine. Plus for tourists (like me) it is close to Sun Studio which is on the route into town so you can make the location work if you try.

Review 41:Full marks to the polite and helpful woman staffing the office early in the morning for a nice welcome, and assistance. Free coffee in reception, clean rooms, decent shower. I was worried it would be dodgy based on other reviews, but this was a fine place to grab a night's sleep - and really cheap.

Review 42:About 40 minutes walk to Beale street. Ok during the day but a bit remote for the evenings.

Review 43:Cheap and easy to locate from motorway 15 mins walk from RCA

Review 44:Comforter had stains on it and could hear everything going on in the room beside us.

Review 45:Went for a concert and was close to our destination. Easy to get in and out. Easy to find.

Review 46:There were bed bugs everywhere...and the receptionist knew that but still sold us the room. Unbelievable, should be illegal. Also the room smelled like smoke, the carpets were stained with semen like sticky stuff. Most disgusting experience ever! It's also located in the hood so nothing about it feels safe. Lastly, the elevator was like riding the towers of doom ride, pretty sure they need some funds to repair that before they end up killing someone...but I guess those funds won't come as long as they have to return everyone's money because of bed bugs.

Review 47:The deadbolt mounting plate was held by one screw and needed to be manually manipulated to allow the deadbolt to be used (to clear the opening on the plate). The A/C was VERY loud. There were multiple pan handlers on grounds. The bed was too firm, the pillows were too thin. We actually got up and left earlier than planned just to get out of there.

Review 48:the price

Review 49:The decor is beyond outdated and the beds are far to small for the average adult. The vending area could also use some maintenance as the ice machines were broken. However, the most troubling aspect of our stay was being repeatedly harassed by other motel guests. I'm aware that the staff cannot regulate the behavior of their patrons but perhaps increased security would be in order. We will not be returning to this particular establishment.
