What guests think

At Motel6 Winchester, VA, travelers describe a budget, pet friendly stop with generally clean, no-frills rooms, friendly check-in, and a convenient location near I-81 and shopping, though experiences vary with noise, occasional cleanliness problems, and area concerns.

Many praise the helpful staff and the pet-friendly grounds with grassy walking areas.

There is a nice field to walk the pet and they do have a Pet Bags/Trash place to put the bags after you clean up after your pet. I was only there late overnight. The room was clean and fine. The basic hotel room but I felt safe.

Love that its pet friendly, nice grassy area, staff great but witnessed a couple outside our room smoking pot or something. Around the other side of motel, paths going into woods with lots of litter. Definitely must have been hang out for probably someone up to no good. Overall, loved being there and felt comfortable walking pet in main grassy area.

Good for short stays. For longer ones, not so much. Room was clean and gave plenty of space. However, the bed was very small and hard, and one of the blankets was itchy. Other than that, there was plenty of parking space and a lot of shopping complexes nearby. If you need a pit stop or somewhere to rest, this Motel 6 was fine.

Quick one night stay to get some rest on a long trip. Simple, no frills place to rest you head. I like that they removed the carpet, means it’s easier to clean between stays. One thing to note, there is no elevator.

Daily coffee from 6am to 10am. Bring your own toiletry. Only soap is provided. No hairdryer. Only negative is thin walls. Our neighbors blasted their TV but noise level went down around 10:30pm. Not much trouble after that.

First, the night manager who was there when I checked in and out, was fantastic. I hate giving a bad review because of how great he was. There was no housekeeping for the four days of my stay. I’d be out all and day and return later at night to not even a new set of towels. Some of the guests were living there and will bother you tremendously in the parking lot to the point you no longer feel safe. There’s an individual walking around in their boxers telling about you their “top surgery”and there’s others routinely walking by your rooms and cars. Slept there 4 nights and feared my car would be broken into every morning when I got up. The increasing number of bugs in the room wasn’t great either, but the least of the issues. Never again.

The price was amazing for the convenience and access to Winchester. The rooms were comfortable. It'd be nice if they could have half-n-half for the coffee in the morning, but I understand why they don't. I thought, for the price, it was a great deal.
