At Motel 6-Allentown, PA, travelers consistently find a budget, no-frills stay with generally clean spaces, strong dog friendliness with handy pet amenities, and a convenient location near highways and local spots, suitable for short, practical stopovers.
Rooms are compact and basic, with several reports of uncomfortable spring mattresses and some noise from other guests or pets. Policies are strict with ID checks and deposits, and service ranges from very welcoming to occasionally unhelpful. There is no breakfast and coffee is the only morning option, though restaurants and a diner are nearby. Expect simple, pet-forward lodging at a low price for quick stays.

Delivered exactly what was promised. Front desk clerk (both at 11pm check in and 730pm checkout) was pleasant and helpful, room was clean, including bathroom, fridge worked well, no odor at all in room, air conditioning worked well, area was quiet, bed was comfortable. Parking lot was well lit and felt safe. Coffee was ready as promised in morning. This was exactly what I was looking for when I booked the room. The only drawback at all was a trace musty smell in the corridor leading to my room. Can’t rule out being linked to a guest or their belongings though. Would definitely stay here again.

The most pet friendly place I've stayed! My pup gives it 5 barks. The towels to dry off after going outside, treats, and a blanket in the room... loved it! Clean and affordable with friendly service.

This is quite possibly the cleanest Motel 6 property I have ever seen. I traveled with my dog for a show and stayed there. Staff was friendly and welcoming, there were large grassy areas to potty your dog, towels, bags and treats readily available. My only complaint has to do with other people staying there whose dogs barked all hours of the night.

Great Motel 6. It smelled nice. Our room was quite small, but nice. Note that if you bring a dog, you need to call to let them know because they have a limited number of dog rooms.

Because everything in the address was either priced ridiculously or was sold out, we had no choice but to stay at Motel 6. The room was ok size-wise. But it was over all a run-down property. We found what appeared to be a bed bug as we pulled off the sheets from the corner of bed. It was the only one we found and we did not get any bites. The front desk did give us an option of choosing another room, but since we had already been up close to 24 hrs, we’re opted to stay in the room after careful inspection. We did not have any further problems. We did notice that the sheets were torn in some places and not very good condition; the towels were pitifully thin and small. No cleaning service nor trash pick up. I honestly do not see much value at staying at a motel 6. We will not do it again

All of the staff there were very friendly and accommodating. Everything was very clean. The property area was very clean. That was the third or fourth time that I had stayed there and I would definitely stay at that hotel again. The only thing I would say is that there were no hairdryers in the room. There was a refrigerator and microwave in the room which worked. The bathtub area was very clean. I asked for more towels and toilet tree and the staff there was very accommodating.

The overall stay was good for being on a budget, however the room could have been cleaned much more thoroughly. We found a booger on our wall and that definitely gave us an icky feeling while staying here.

This Motel 6 is fairly new and thus far well kept. The rooms are small but adequate for a night's sleep. Nothing posh at all, world's cheapest toilet paper (probably a corporate decision to save a few cents).

The stay was cool for a night or two.. room was very small for a double queen bed but cleanliness was on point which I appreciate.. smelled good and floors were clean. Parking was limited.. I gave 3 stars because the bed was horrible, I could feel and hear the springs popping. Our back and shoulders were in pain the next day.. I don’t expect much in a low star hotel but i expect cleanliness and a good night sleep in a good bed..

Pleasantly surprised given the price. With two queen beds in room, fridge and microwave it was a bit tight but manageable. Room seemed recently renovated with modern flooring, bathroom tiles and fixtures etc. There's not much sitting area in the room and lobby so if you're just looking for a bed and not visiting at the hotel this works just fine. Restaurant and convenience store just a block away. One pro that other hotels should learn from: lots of power outlets, up at table height and accessible! One con which also plagues many other hotels: lack of towel bars. With all that empty wall space in the bathroom, why not put up a couple of towel bars! Overall: good value if you dont mind going off-site for food, coffee and visiting.

If you just need a quick place to crash for the night, this hotel is great. Clean rooms, polite staff, conveniently located just off the turnpike. As others have mentioned, the bed was all metal springs and not exactly the most comfortable, but this is definitely a ‘get what you pay for’ situation, so set expectations accordingly and you’ll have a lovely stay.

Motel 6 is a bare bones facility. My room was tiny and this was the first motel I've ever stayed at that didn't have a continental breakfast. No shampoo and no place to put your clothes-so you leave them in your luggage. I only stayed one night so it was ok for my needs.

In my first stay I was attended by a woman and did not want to give me the check in, the moment was super uncomfortable, she thought I had no reservation and did not want to attend to me then she saw that I had a reservation and it was where she gave me the check in, it was very heavy and I wanted to make everything difficult.

I was disappointed with nearly every aspect of my stay at this motel and would not recommend it. There was no shampoo provided, and the towel holder in the bathroom was broken and falling apart. The security at the front desk was overly strict and maintained a different age policy than what is listed on the website, which prevented many of our teammates from staying there. Additionally, there is a strict no guest policy. When I book hotels for a group, I look for a place that allows my team to be together and gives me peace of mind that everything is handled. My experience with Motel 6 Allentown was just the opposite; it felt as if I had no bookings at all and had to start from scratch while also driving. As a result, we all stayed in different places and were not together, which added logistical complications throughout the weekend. The receptionist even greeted our guests with hostility at the back door and threatened to evict the entire party and call the police if individuals under 21 tried to enter. This absurd behavior from the front desk staff is an experience I hope to never relive, and I will never book this place again.

Absolutely false advertisement the rooms are way more cheaper than it looks in the pictures. They charged 100$ it should be not more than 50$ per night. Anyways We checked in friday 11 pm which took 30 to 40 mins because the system was not responding! However we made to the room and when we were about to sleep somebody got into our room! We were shocked! Wth! When we asked them they said it was receptionist mistake! They gave the same room to both of us! We couldn’t sleep the whole night because of the trauma somebody getting inside! Overall I will never recommend anyone this hotel.

Management is very suspicious of guests, which is noticeable, and not at all appealing. It\'s okay to confirm once, that there are no pets, nor additional guests staying, and that is made clear upon check in. But it didn\'t have to be repeated, when calling to confirm the reservation and pending check-in. Nor did we need to be followed into the parking lot and watched as we unloaded our suitcases and personal belongings, while management acted like they were just going outside for a routine check of the property, but instead walked back and forth like a security team might "walk a property", to see what all we were bringing inside.

I found this hotel on Expedia I wanted something close to the amusement park. It's a severe thunderstorm and I just wanted a place to sleep for the night. It's affordable, the place is clean, and honestly more than I expected.

Was a nice place to stay that didn't cost a lot and close to Dorney Park which was what I wanted.

One night stay. Location of the hotel made it a bit of a challenge to get to from the main interstate but was in a good residential and commercial area. Parking lot was small but well lit. My room was a single queen, clean and as depicted in site pictures. Nicely appointed with a microwave and fridge. The bed was very comfortable! Good extra door lock security. Only coffee, no breakfast and no frills, but great value for the price. I would stay again if in the area.

Pleasantly surprised given the price. With two queen beds in room, fridge and microwave it was a bit tight but manageable. Room seemed recently renovated with modern flooring, bathroom tiles and fixtures etc. There's not much sitting area in the room and lobby so if you're just looking for a bed and not visiting at the hotel this works just fine. Restaurant and convenience store just a block away. One pro that other hotels should learn from: lots of power outlets, up at table height and accessible! One con which also plagues many other hotels: lack of towel bars. With all that empty wall space in the bathroom, why not put up a couple of towel bars! Overall: good value if you dont mind going off-site for food, coffee and visiting.

I was a little disappointed that they did not have a iron or blow dryer. They did not have a coffee machine in the room. They did have coffee in the lobby but you can only get coffee in the mornings, starting at 6am. The coffee was terrible. I had to buy coffee the entire time i was there. They do not have breakfast in the morning so that was disappointing as well. They were pet friendly which was nice. They did not have a closet. The room was a tiny bit cramped but overall, it was ok.

Motel 6 is a bare bones facility. My room was tiny and this was the first motel I've ever stayed at that didn't have a continental breakfast. No shampoo and no place to put your clothes-so you leave them in your luggage. I only stayed one night so it was ok for my needs.

Pros: The price was reasonable, and the location was convenient for me. The staff was polite and professional. Cons: There is no continental breakfast; it is only coffee and tea. I was unable to connect my laptop to the wifi, and there was no one available to assist me on the helpline that the front desk referred me to.

Front desk attendant was super nice and helpful. Elevator worked great. Room was very clean and quiet. Only bars of soap are provided, so bring your own shampoo and conditioner. No breakfast, but coffee, decaf and hot water for tea available in the lobby. We would definitely stay here again!

Overall, it met our needs for the night. Inexpensive and close to our early morning activity. The room was definitely bare bones. Other than soap, no other essentials like shampoo. Morning shower was less than hot, luke warm at best. No breakfast, just coffee, but Dunkin' was two minutes away. No biggie.

It's a basic motel, no frills. It's, in my opinion, good for someone that is passing through quickly, not on holiday. The price is right and pets stay free which is great because some dogs are larger than others. It was clean, people were nice and that's all I'd ask.
