What guests think

Travellers choose Motel 6 Elizabeth, NJ - Newark Liberty Intl Airport for its low rates and proximity to EWR, but reviews frequently cite poor maintenance and cleanliness, pests, and inconsistent shuttle and parking experiences that make many stays feel stressful.

Rooms are very basic and often dated, with many reports of faulty heating or air conditioning, broken TVs or plumbing, cramped bathrooms, and significant noise from traffic or the nightclub next door.

Very good: Very close to Newark airport. Very good: Free shuttle service to airport. Very good: Friendly personnel Very good: Open even at very late hours, and very early in the morning. Medium: the shuttle makes roundtrips. So sometimes one seems to have to wait for 15 - 20 minutes till the shuttle arrives. Medium: very limited dining.

Property is economical (though price up 50% on last year). Less than a mile from NJ Transit - easy walk. Free shuttle to airport 24/7. But room was poor - chest of drawers falling apart and bare screws in closet where coat rail was attached. Top of faucet was stickly. Bed very nice.

The guy working the front desk was rude and didn’t want to deal with my issues, my room was rundown/dirty, location is not convenient. Have to take an Uber everywhere as the bus takes 1-2 hours. The poor reviews on Google are very accurate. The shuttle service is not from the Motel 6 as advertised but the neighbouring parking business. I waited over an hour for the shuttle as they told me it would be a Motel 6 logo on the side of a white van which was incorrect. I don’t recommend this motel to anyone. NOT AS ADVERTISED!

The shuttle from the airport was kind of scary. The driver was talking on his phone, honking his horn at other drivers and seemed very unhappy. He did his speak very good English, so it was hard to understand him, and he seemed to get frustrated by that. At check-in, the man said I ordered a smoking room, which is not true. I don’t smoke and don’t like the smell of smoke, but then he said that’s all he had. I asked for a room close to the front and he also said there was nothing but way in the dark back of the hotel, the area was very sketchy with people in the parking lot and very dark parking lot. The shuttle back to the hotel was better but not great. The room was very minimal and dingy, as far as furnishings. It did not seem very clean, but the bed was OK. I would not stay here again and would spend a little bit more money on something a lot better.

This is an airport motel; convenient to Newark Airport. Shuttle service available and runs regularly. The motel is tired on a noisy road, air conditioning unit was difficult to use, loud, with most of the controls not working. The parking lot is used for long term or neighbor parking so it was active and contributed to the noise both in sound and light. The front desk was quick, efficient, and polite. There is nothing in walking distance, but there are restaurants that deliver. Thoroughly unimpressed - you get what you pay for.

It's close to Newark International Airport, and there's an airport shuttle. The only benefits. The TV screen had a big crack in it that was accentuated by the grainy reception. It was a non smoking room that had the stench of stale cigarettes. There were no bath towels. There was a washcloth and what looked like a tea towel with an ink stain The front desk guy couldn't be bothered to get off his phone call whilst checking me in, and couldn't be bothered to explain anything about the hotel Overall, yuck. Pay more and stay at the Crown Plaza directly behind this awful hotel

The guys at the front desk are awesome! Very friendly! The room is small but was clean & served its purpose. There were no roaches, hair in the bathtub or mold. The remote to the tv was broken. The property is in horrible condition. There was no parking spots. Everyone was double parked & blocking one another. The major issue I see at motel 6 is how many people live there & they don’t care about keeping the property looking nice. It was well lite outside at night. I didn’t hear any of my neighbors through the walls. There was no place for a dog to go potty.

My stay at this hotel was extremely disappointing. I had reserved the room for two nights, but the conditions were so bad that on the second night I was forced to sleep in my car instead of staying in that space. The place was very dirty and had a strong unpleasant smell. The towels were not clean, and the bed sheets were full of holes. The toilet was clogged, and even after asking for a plunger, no assistance was provided. The room phone did not work, and there was no parking available. Overall, the experience was horrible and far below any acceptable standard. I do not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Getting checked in and the people at the desk were the only good things about this place. There was a giant blood stain on the mattress when we went to take the covers off so they’d be changed. Before we checked in I jokingly stop watched a maid clean a room 1.18 and she went to the next and did the same. Parking was a horrible time at night, especially when the whole place wasn’t even completely occupied (they left the curtains drawn a certain way for unoccupied rooms). If you don’t mind something similar to a trap house, then this is your place.

Our room was clearly not cleaned in awhile. Sheets were dirty, there was crud on the floors and walls. The toilet wasn’t attached to the floor, was leaking from the bottom, and smelled like sewer. We all needed showers but opted against it because the shower looked gross, too. We’re no strangers to a budget friendly crash pad of a hotel, but this was on another level. Hopefully the other rooms are in better shape.

Do not stay here. When we landed in Newark Airport, we called to get information on the airport shuttle, but the information on the automated message was wrong. When we finally got in touch with the front desk, everyone we talked to was unhelpful, and did not give us accurate information. When we got to our room, it was clear that it had not been cleaned. There was trash under the bed, and balls of hair on the floor. The bathroom shower was so unclean I refused to shower in it. There was a massive cockroach in the room. The bed was lumpy and uncomfortable. People played loud music for hours outside, and someone kept slipping paper in through our door. I would never stay here again.

The heating and airconditioning unit was right next to the bed and were extremely noisy so didn't get a comfortable night's sleep. During checkout no printed receipt was provided as printer was out of order. Did not receive an emailed receipt despite having requested one. Overall, I wouldn't probably stay at this hotel again.

The guy in the front desk was focus in a conversation with a friend and he was not attentive with the guests at all. Overall, the location is convenient for overnight stay but the service is not good at all, I would not recommend this place.

I read the reviews on Expedia and this sounded like the worst hotel in the world. When I arrived, there was no-one at check-in. After several minutes I made a phone call to the motel, but it was not answered, then someone turned up. The hotel was OK - basic, normal Motel 6, and, to my amazement, there was a free shuttle, which duly dropped me off at Terminal A at 0420 the next morning - brilliant. The bar across the parking lot provided average food, good beer and superb service.

The photo of the front of the motel looks decent but the motel is actually old and not impressive at all. We paid more money for the room compared to Holiday Inn. No proper instructions on where to take shuttle. Emailed hotel for info but no response. At airport terminal was given conflicting info on shuttle pick up ranging from P4 to Terminal C ground floor and finally Terminal c 2nd floor door 5 - took a number of hours to finally get to the hotel. Shuttle from motel to terminal was a wait too. On Google it is stated restaurant on site. Gave the impression that motel includes an in house restaurant. No such thing. There is a restaurant a short walk away. Not part of hotel. Overall - not a great option for a layover let alone a long stay.
