What guests think

Across reviews of Motel 6-Tewksbury, MA - Boston, guests repeatedly mention heavy cigarette odors, widespread cleanliness and maintenance issues, and noise from nearby trains or other guests, while also noting convenient highway access and generally friendly front-desk staff.

In-room amenities are inconsistent, with several stays lacking promised microwaves or refrigerators, and there is no breakfast, though coffee is available in the lobby and IHOP and other restaurants are nearby. Service consistency is uneven, with repeated complaints about scarce towels, lack of housekeeping, and difficulty getting help when problems arise. Several guests felt uneasy due to late-night activity and a visible police presence. Expect a basic budget stay with significant trade-offs in comfort and upkeep.

Check in very easy and quick. Room pretty renewed, but the bed is narrow for two. No breakfast, but black coffee is available at reception early in the morning. Great place to spend a night before international flight at Logan

Found clothes left behind from a previous stay. The room was dirty, smelly and had lots of stains. Toilet was leaking. Beds linens looked worned out. When asked a receptionist for an extra blanked he went behind and came back with a photo of empty shelves. I didn't ask for towels afterwards, we had 2 provided for 3 people for the 3 night stay. On the upside thr bed was comfortable and the place had a decent laundry for pay.

It is a pretty rickety old motel 6, but it was clean. It had a fridge (yay) but no microwave to make what we put in the fridge edible. Really guys, you can't spend $50 to put in a microwave? The IHOP next to the hotel and the Applebee's one parking lot over are good dining options.

the rooms smelled of tobacco despite being a no smoking motel. The door safety latch was broken. The tub had no plug. We had our dog, but the dog bag dispenser was empty and broken. However, the staff was very friendly and apologetic about the situation.

The front desk staff were the only good thing about this motel. We had to switch rooms because the first room was absolutely disgusting. Sheets were dirty, the headboard was falling off, exposed nails on the bed, dust/dirt/ashes all over the floor and around the bed. The second room was a little better as far as cleanliness, but I did kill two roaches inside the room. The beds were like sleeping on a fold out couch mattress, thin and uncomfortable. These rooms are worth $50 max per night. So, $100 for the weekend. Not the $245 I paid.

We booked two rooms for two nights for two families and had one of the worst hotel experiences ever. The rooms were extremely dirty, poorly maintained, and filled with a strong marijuana smell. The beds were completely worn out, with collapsed springs and zero comfort. The wall heater was loud and released a terrible odor clearly not cleaned for a long time. We specifically booked non-smoking rooms with a microwave and refrigerator, but none of these were provided. Instead of admitting their mistake, the staff insisted that our reservation was for a standard room. Hotels.com provided no help at all, and no one offered an apology or any kind of refund or compensation. This place is a complete disgrace to the Motel 6 brand filthy rooms, broken furniture, terrible smell, and careless management. If you care about your health, comfort, or even basic hygiene, do not come here. Spend your money somewhere else and avoid this nightmare!

I’m not a snob, just want decent, clean bed and shower. Those were fine. When we walked in the room, it smelled like decades of cigarette smoke had permeated the place. The clerk did ask if we wanted non smoking. Got used to it and the beds were comfy.

I found this location noisy as the windows didn’t seem insulated so every sound came through (don’t go here if you’re a light sleeper). The mattress was on a solid piece of wood & seemed lumpy so not a good sleep ( and we were in the “upgraded room”)

I didnt expect much and I was still let down ; the walls were dirty and stained, the floor had crumbs everywhere and burn stains, the comforter had burned holes on it, and there was spiders everywhere. It looked like nobody had cleaned the room in a long time. There was train tracks at the back and it kepr waking us up and the rooms were not soundproof at all.

There is a train that runs behind the hotel during the night that shakes the building and is loud. The room was not well cleaned and the mattress was uncomfortable. There is a fair amount of weed being smoked around the hotel.

(1) I walked into the lobby to check in and found a policeman interviewing folks who had apparently experienced thefts. (2) The bathtub had many cigarette burns and seemed not to have been scrubbed well in years. (3) While walking our dog in the morning, my husband discovered a wastebasket and its contents strewn around the grassy area - he and another guest cleaned up the mess. (4) The linens were clean, the tv worked, and the free coffee (none in the room) in the lobby was tasty.
