What guests think

Reviews of Motel 6-Hammond, IN - Chicago Area are highly mixed, with frequent concerns about cleanliness and maintenance alongside reports of basic, budget-friendly rooms, occasionally friendly staff, and convenient highway access.

Several reviews describe the area and nighttime activity as unsafe or disruptive, with people hanging around and noise carrying from outside and the highway. Rooms are simple, with some recent updates, but many mention hard mattresses, thin pillows, smoke smells, and limited in-room amenities such as no standard fridge or microwave. Service is inconsistent—some praise friendly staff and easy check-in, while others report rude interactions, slow help, and reservation or room-change issues. Expect a no-frills stopover where price and access can outweigh comfort and cleanliness.

When i first booked I just picked the queen. When i went in there wasnt any fridge or micro wave. I called fromt desk and they said that was the kind of room i booked and an upgraded one was $6 more. I paid and they switched me rooms. Expedia didnt have the 2 different rooms on there so i wasnt aware. It smelt like a cheap hotel but overall was good for the night i needed. There bed it very hard and uncomfortable but i guess when you look for cheaper prices you get cheaper furniture. Would use again if i needed to.

Check-in was easy as I had used a discount site to place the room. The room wasn't big, but large enough. It had wifi, and cable, that was about it no hair drier, shampoo or microfridge. The bed was comfortable and the Hvac worked well. THE PRICE WAS RIGHT.

It didn’t have a microwave oven or a fridge. When I checked out in the morning. The clerk was not at her desk. She had a sign posted in the window saying she’ll be back in 30 minutes. I was pressed for time and I did not have no time to be waiting for her to come back, and I thought that was unprofessional. I had an early flight to catch, and I had to return the rental car, as soon as possible. I was pressed for time.

There was no wifi in my room. Ordinarily for a property like this I would not have left a review. It was cheap, which was what I needed. But when I went to inquire about the wifi they LIED about there being no other rooms available. I saw several around the property that were obviously unoccupied. That's no way to conduct business.

We were first given hanicap room which had dirty sheets. Smelled funny. I asked for a different room which was dirty still. Bed frames were a mess and had dead bugs. Floors behind beds were gross. Door to the room didnt even seem to be able to close all the way. I was there with my 15year son and we did not even spend the night!! Going to be demanding a full refund!!

The room was really bad, not clean. Super dirty! They stated it’s renovated, it’s really bad actually. Floor was sticking, dirty. Bathroom and shower was really dirty as not cleaned in a decade. Common areas and all the property is dirty and smells bad. Everyone smoking everywhere, and you can smell it in your room. Noisy, people talking all night. One of the worst experience I’ve ever had.

The room was filthy, I would never stay there again. It was so nasty I couldn’t even shower in this room or get under the covers. I rented it for a night because I had an event 15mins away. The outside was also dirty and full of drug dealers and hookers. I wish I could have found something else last minute . We were only in the room like 3 hrs and checked out super early because we couldn’t take it. Horrible!!!!

The room was dirty. It was bugs in the bathroom in the ceiling on the walls. There was stains on the sheets, found hair on the bed under the sheets under the covers. It was just all around nasty. I checked out early because I couldn’t sleep. I stayed enough just to be there for overnight. I checked out about 3 o’clock. It was just too nasty. I was supposed to be there tonight. I couldn’t do it for a second night.

STAY AWAY! I didn’t feel comfortable sleeping due to the ROACHES. The place was disgusting and stunk so bad. The was cigarette burns on the walls and phone. The bathroom had pee on the walls. The floors were sticky and nasty. I wouldn’t let my kids take off their socks. The place is not suitable for a family. They try to say the place was remodeled and didn’t have bugs. I have whole pictures and a video of them. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

Okkkkkkkkkk.... so i thought this would be like the motel 6 around my area. No. Not the case. This is like a budget motel without the budget price. I came here for an event at the civic center so i decided instead of driving all the way back in the same night, we could all just stay here. Not the worst decision I've ever made, also not the best. The rooms themselves were not terrible. The beds were extremist uncomfortable though. The bathrooms were also not terrible, however the first room they gave us, the bathrooms smelled like sewage. They gave us a different room but only after ai waited for over an hour for someone to be at the desk ( this was around 12 am.) The biggest issue i had was with the patrons. The first thing any one said too me was "just so you know, the cops are out front." And them the people next door had chips knocking on their door at 3am to kick one of them out and trespassing. (All of this can be heard through super thin exterior walls.) had i had been myself, This experience probably wouldn't have bothered me so much. Since i was with my family, I will never bring them here again.

I know you get what you pay for and have low expectations but this was a terrific experience. The area is not safe. Heard gun shots just after ariving. Thankfully the police response was quick. All of the beds in the entire motel are full size. We reserved a queen but found out they only have full size beds in evey single room. When we checked in they tried to charge us but we had already paid. Easy fix but no no response from the desk clerk. Just clicked away on the computer and then handed me one room key. When i asked where the room was she shrugged her shoulders and said "I don't know" The towels are so thin and rough. We stayed 2 nights and when we asked for more towels the desk clerk was very rude and said we needed to bring the dirty ones first. We did that but the"clean" towels were stained with black spots and alot of hair on them. The floors in the room were in good condition but filthy. My white socks are now black. There are no hair dryers in the rooms and no battery in the smoke alarm. Again, we didn't expect much not this was beyond terrible.

They did not want to check us in at the assigned time at 3pm due to not having staff to clean up rooms. They also did not want to give us any time in the afternoon, any approximate time. This whole area is bad with hotels not keeping their promises. This particular hotel is not very welcoming and on top of that the stuff at the reception was extremely uninterested and disrespectful.
