What guests think

At Motel 6-Blythe, CA, travelers describe a basic, budget stop with often friendly, fast check-in and acceptable value, though experiences vary widely depending on room condition, placement near the freeway, and recent maintenance.

Cleanliness is mixed: several guests found tidy rooms, while others reported dirty floors, stained linens, dusty surfaces, or occasional pests. Common maintenance issues include weak or no hot water, low water pressure, inoperative or seasonal AC/heat, broken fixtures or locks, and thin walls that transmit freeway or neighbor noise; parking by the door and a well-lit lot received praise. Expect a no-frills, variable stop that works for a quick night off I-10.

The pool was nice to use and the room was good and tidy but the floor was very dirty and needed washed. The shower was so worn it looked very grubby but this was more the wear than dirt like the floor. Other than these two issues it was a pleasant stay.

There were holes in the bedspread, the ice machine was broken, no toilet paper and the clothes dryer was also not working properly and not marked. The entire motel seemed a little rundown. Maybe a fresh coat of paint would help or some new linens? But this place is really in need some help. The staff was very nice though.

Parking was outside our room which felt safe enough. Staff was fine. Tough location but ironically the beds were comfortable. It was ok for the money, it did the job for the night and was very kind to accept pets without a big fanfare over it. That is always nice!

Arrived after 1 am and was just needing a bed to sleep on. I needed ice, but was told the ice machine was locked up at 10 pm. Luckily I always travel with my own pillows, and a warm throw. Couldn't get the heat to work, and in the morning there wasn't any hot water. Found the ice machine in the laundry room, and the place was a mess. Overall a very disappointing experience. Luckily it was my last night away from home.

The floor was filthy! Our toddler spilled some drops of juice so we went to wipe it up. The towel was black from the floor being so dirty! The toilet paper roll had 5 squares left on it. This was when we had just checked in. Made me wonder about the rest of the floors as there is no carpet in the room.

It can get very noisy at the middle of night with people walking by and talking outside. No sound insulation. Very disgusting curtain with food on it. Towels are dirty and disgusting. Central air conditioning so you don’t control the temperature.

The room was clean, nothing special but serviceable and check in was super quick and easy. The bathroom light was connected to the fan, which was broken and squealed so loudly we had to keep it off, which was inconvenient but fine. It was super inexpensive, and the kind of thing were you didn’t pay for frills and you get none.

This is our 4th stay in this location. The STAFF is always friendly and accommodating. The surrounding area seems bleak, but does not seem unsafe. Not all rooms have microwave and refrigerator.--which we depend on for a 3 day stay. Did not realize that these had to be requested. There might be a communal microwave available.

This property was a welcome change from the Motel 6 we stayed at in Palm Springs. It smelled good, was quiet after dark (nobody standing outside our room talking all hours of the night), the room was nicer, and there was a microwave in addition to a small fridge. The only issue was with the walls being so thin we could hear our "neighbor\'s" TV. Thankfully, they went to bed early. But for the price, we had a pleasant stay.

Check in was good. Room facing the pool was very Clean. Expedia price for 3 nights was very good! Room was very basic. Extra towels, 2 bars of soap, micro, fridge, nice size tv, comfortable bed. Sink only had luke warm water on the hot side. Hot water in the shower.Central A/C not very efficient, room was stuffy at times. Insulation was poor. Noisy neighbors at 2:30 am! Could hear their TV and phone conversation. Nice people in the office. Better than some other places I have stayed at in Blythe.

Basic motel just off the interstate. Service at the front desk was excellent & check in was detailed & efficient. Plenty of parking available. Room was comfortable & clean. Being off the interstate, the motel is in an industrial type area with some food venues such as Dennys in walking distance. Good value for the price paid & suited our needs for an overnight stop after visiting Joshua Tree National Park.

I needed a quick,ECONOMICAL, overnite stay that was CLEAN & QUIET and within short driving distance to McDonald's for an EARLY morning breakfast sandwich and coffee to go. This PARTICULAR MOTEL 6 REALLY FIT THE BILL PLUS THE LADY AT THE CHECK-IN DESK DID A GREAT JOB. I COULDN'T ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE. I'm from Wyoming so I did not have any preconceived notions about this particular Motel 6. I am a retired airline pilot and I have stayed in A MILLION MOTELS OVER THE YEARS. THIS WAS A GOOD ONE!
