What guests think

Reviews of Motel 6-Fort St. John, BC are mixed, highlighting a convenient location and reasonable prices, but also recurring concerns about an aging building, inconsistent cleanliness, heat and hot water failures, some electrical problems, smoke odours, and disruptive nighttime noise.

The setting near Main Street and downtown, with grocery and bus access, is convenient for errands and transit. Guests describe beds as either very comfortable or sagging, and some rooms have good TV and Wi‑Fi. Service feedback ranges from prompt and friendly to unprofessional and unhelpful, and several note missing in‑room basics like glasses or a coffee maker. Expect a basic stay with variable quality depending on room and recent maintenance.

Unfortunately, I had a bad experience the last time I went there the room they put me in was dirty and had the last person stuff still in it. I had to switch rooms and the lady running the desk said the room is clean. What’s the problem? Would not stay here again it’s very rundown and not very welcoming.

It’s right on Main Street Fort St. John which is a very pleasant area. The building itself is showing its age but the room was clean and comfortable.

Nice quiet & clean room unit $110 with comfortable bed and good tv/wifi. Some minor repairs needed for next stage of renovation .. extras like coffee maker, cups & clothing hooks would be good idea. Service was prompt & considerate.

We had to change rooms 3 times. First room kept blowing breakers, so had no power or heat and it was -40. Taken to next room and would not stay as heater was leaking all over floor as it was freeon. Next room had a night with no water as lines froze. So moved to the last room. Did not receive a refund. Had to book 2 more nights because roads to bad to travel then gave me same price as I original book. Didnt offer anything just not price that is posted.

Stayed 3 nights

No heat in the entire building-small 1500W heaters in each room-breakers blowing constantly-staff obviously sick of hearing the complaints-talked to a worker who had stayed all week and it’s been like this for awhile??? How can a hotel with ELECTRICITY issues be open? There was a water line burst LAST FALL and apparently this is part of that issue. Also mouldy ceiling in the bathroom and no bathtub plugs so had to use a facecloth to plug the drain to bath.

Room was a good price, place was easy to find. However, The overpowering smell of some sort of cleaner was gross. Hair in both beds was disgusting. Then the heater wouldn’t stop running. Was so hot all night. Couldn’t open the window because it was screwed shut. Then people banging on doors and yelling late at night. All in all had a restless horrible night.

The check in clerk was unprofessional seemed annoyed. He checked us into a room that smelled of smoke-all rooms were said to be non smoking-had to request a change. During the night people were yelling and talking loudly outside in the parking lot-no night watchman on duty apparently. They need to have a no smoking policy and a disturbance clause signed at check in-there was no paperwork offered at all. The room was clean and beds comfortable, but would not recommend, for the noisy guests.

The fridge didnt work so whatever food i had left couldnt be frozen. I quietly a hot plate to make a burger or two a night. When a cooked a third burger a smoke alarm went off and he had firefighters at my door saying " thereyre coming for me". He told to complain about the fridge and still hasnt done anything about it. Now it costs to much to stay here and he told me it is a non cooking room. I feel that is unacceptable as if the fridge worked my hot plate wouldnt have been overy used.
