What guests think

Motel 6-Grand Rapids, MI - Northeast earns very mixed feedback: some guests find renovated, pet-friendly rooms and a clean indoor pool at a budget price, while many report serious cleanliness issues, strong odors, pests, noise, and a rough extended-stay atmosphere.

Staff interactions are often friendly and helpful, though some guests experienced rudeness or difficulty obtaining refunds. Common areas and amenities feel worn, with broken ice or vending machines and limited on-site offerings such as no breakfast. The location is convenient near the highway and eateries, but some felt the parking lot and surroundings were sketchy. Expect a low-cost stay with significant trade-offs and variability.

Floors are very squeaky, making it not a very quiet place. The beds were not very comfortable. They only have two wheelchair accessible rooms and do not have a shower chair available on request.

The hallway was very stinky but the room itself was very nice. They have a very nice indoor pool that was very clean. This property is attached to an extended stay so it felt very sketchy but wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The staff was very friendly.

It was easy to get to. But some things were in disrepair. Door to bathroom was falling apart. Ice machine broke, and it seems a place that has more than 300 rooms would have more than one ice machine.

The room was full of cockroaches and fleas. When checking out all we got was a so sorry. We did not realize it was so bad until the lights were turned down in the night and out they come. Will never stay in a Motel 6 again in this lifetime. We should have been able to get our money refunded and everyone we know will never stay in one either.

Nothing wrong with the room or the area, but the lack of internet/Wifi is unacceptable. Staff told me it was "unexpected." I had to go to a library down the road to get work done online. I didn\'t realize I was traveling back to 1975 in Grand Rapids.

James at the front desk was vey nice and as accomodating as he could be with the questions I asked. Common areas need some updating, but for the price and location this motel served our purpose. Bring your own hair dryer as there is not one in the room. Plenty of places nearby for food, coffee, gas and grocery on Plainfield Ave.

The room was in extremely poor condition. Safety latch on the door was broken. There was a great big chunk out of the tile in the shower. In the doorway between the sink and the shower and toilet there was a lip on the floor I didn't notice it it wasn't pointed out as a trip hazard I almost fell into the tub. The phone cord going into the phone just fell out it wasn't secure. I did not feel safe at all I had a hard time finding it there was no good bright light signage from the road. I spent $92 in that room terrified that someone would open the door I put a chair in front of the door so I could hear anyone come in. I would never recommend this place

This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. Do not let the photos fool you. Apparently there is PART of this motel that has been updated but the other half (where I got stuck with my 15 year old daughter) is an extended stay where they apparently allow lions, tigers and bears to live. The lobby doesn't seem so bad but if you have the unfortunate luck to be down the hallway to the left, once you open the doors, you will be knocked out by the smell of urine. The ammonia smell will make you sick. People's dogs were barking all day and night. Little kids screaming and crying from 5am on. And I do NOT recommend going to the parking lot for any reason other than to leave. I saw multiple d*ug deals in broad daylight. Even the front desk worker came out from behind a dumpster after a dealer was flagged down by a long term stay resident. All in all, this hotel is very unsafe, very disgusting and very disappointing. PLEASE do not stay here!
