What guests think
At Motel 6-Owensboro, KY, reviews repeatedly cite serious cleanliness and maintenance problems—dirty bathrooms, strong smoke odors, pests, broken fixtures, and poor or inconsistent hot water—alongside safety and noise concerns around the property and parking areas.
Rooms are often described as worn and under-equipped, with missing or nonfunctional fridges, microwaves, lamps, TVs, and unreliable Wi‑Fi, plus uncomfortable mattresses. Service feedback is mixed: some friendly front-desk staff, but slow or problematic check-in, scarce housekeeping, and refund disputes. A few guests noted low prices and occasional quiet stays, yet many reported disorderly behavior, loitering, or suspicious activity on-site. Expect a very basic, budget stay with significant trade-offs.

Most rundown motel I've ever stayed at. Balcony was crumbling doors were in poor shape. Bathroom door had a hole in. Poured down rain and rain was coming under the door. Drug addicts staying there like alot of them and they were out on the balcony being very noisey all hours of the night. Mattresses were bad very uncomfortable. We had a homeless man sleeping outside our door. I tried to use the expedia website to report it and it kept saying it was down. Im from ohio and was there for a job interview 5 hours from home and had to go to the interview tired because i was kept awake half the night from drug addicts. We left a day early just to get out of there. Was not offered no reimbursements or anything. Absolute worse motel experience ever id take them off expedia asap before other ppl have this same experience!!!!!

The staff of very nice, beyond that, travelers should avoid this property unless there is no other choice. Dirty, dirty, dirty. Everything is broken and dirty. Holes in the walls, torn sheets, curtains and towels. Blood, yes blood, stained pillows. Water damaged floors and furnishings. Rotting food and trash in the breezeway for weeks. Overflowing trash recepticles everywhere. Matresses with broken springs and giant lumps and dips. I was there for a month for work and had no other choice. I had to clean my own room, change my own sheets and towels, and provide my own toilet paper. Not one single visit from housekeeping even after I requested housekeeping. People milling about the parking lot all night long fighting and arguing. Harleys starting up outside my window every night until 4am. The guy upstairs screaming at his girlfriend nightly while she slammed the door and threw furniture, presumably at him. On the bright side, the prostitute upstairs told me she would make sure nobody messed with my car. I can say, nothing happened to my car during the stay.

The room was disgusting. The bed had broken Springs with giant different in it. There was a hole in the bathroom door it was semi clean. There was mold on the wall behind the toilet. The shower didn't get hot. The outside had trash and people launching around drinking alcohol until the middle of the night around a bonfire.. Do not ever stay at the hotel if you value your life and your safety.

This was the single worst experience I have had with a hotel. I got in after making my reservation online, couldn't find the reservation. Then couldn't get expedia's payment to clear. Then made a key and the first key didn't work. Then I got into a room reeking of cigarette smoke, set my now-cold food on the table, went to the bathroom and my food was already covered in ants. Went back to the front desk and was given two more keys to try. Second room had black hair in the bed and more ants, third room did not have working electricity. All rooms reek of smoke. There were vagrants in the parking lot yelling for a dog or something. The lady at the front desk said I would be refunded when I told her I was leaving but I havnt been. The hotels across the street are an oasis compared to this nightmare. If you are not on drugs you do not belong in this hotel. Zero stars.

First off, let me say that the woman who checked me in and out of my room was a delight. That said, I did find hairs in the shower, a cigarette butt under the toilet, what looked like scrambled eggs and sausage wedged in the sink's drain, a small nickle sized piece of bacon on the ac unit, and either whip cream or shaving cream on the curtains. My feet were also covered in dust/dirt after walking from the shower to the bed. Oh, and there were like 4-5 shopping carts in the parking lot, lol. Cleanliness aside, the room was only $80 which was great, so I'm still giving it 4 out of 5 stars.

DISGUSTING! Floors probably not mopped or swept in years. Feet were black as coal after maybe half an hour. Shower hadn’t been cleaned in probably the same. Counters not wiped off at all. Possibly candle wax? Was slung over the sides of the table and wall. Beds broke down and not sure if bedding was even washed. Paid for extra to have fridge and microwave but one didn’t exist. NOISY ALL NIGHT LONG. People waiting around outside to ask “are you alone” absolutely trash! Will never be back and I’m buying ANOTHER pistol.

I checked in and went to my room. Notice right off a hole in the wall, and safety latch on door missing. Took shower and went to sit down on bed, the bottom of my feet were almost black from the floor. Turn the TV on and started watching a movie, then from behind the TV cockroachs came out. Got my stuff and checked out. Could not stay with the issues.

The hotel was disgusting. When I first checked in, the floors were damp like they had just been mopped but they were filthy and never really felt dry over 2 days. Bedding was basically a flat sheet and it was freezing in the room at night. The shower design basically flooded the bathroom every time I showered.

This is one of the most disgusting hotels. I've ever stayed in the walls were completely filthy. The lighting fixtures were broken. The TV didn't work. There was no refrigerator no microwave. The floors were sticky, where they have not been mopped. The bathroom had hairs all over it on the toilet in the shower. I mean, I wanted to refund and couldn't get one. I don't recommend anybody staying in this hotel. Especially for the price they charge

Staff friendly but unhelpful. Paid extra for delux was given a standard with no rate reduction. Room was in poor condition. No toiletries, bathroom electrical outlets not working. Ice bucket was a soup container, shower curtain moldy, bathroom ceiling black mold, door latch busted, towels soiled, severe sinus issues from over powering deodorizer. Pillows were comfy and the property was very quiet.

No Fridge. No Microwave. No Lamps. No Trash Can in the room. Strange Shower with poor water pressure. No Breakfast of any kind. Coffee was awful. TV Channel selection was garbage. WIFI was FREE but spotty and dropped daily. No Remote for the TV when I got in and it took an Hour to get it and I had to GO BACK for it because they obviously quit looking. I Travel KY a ton and the only thing worse I have ever seen was Roach Infested... but it had a Fridge, Lamps, Microwave, Trash Can etc etc. I will NEVER GO BACK to this place. And I MUST return to Owensboro in the future.

Sheets looked not so clean. The bathroom door had a punch hole in it. The bathtub curtains were dirty. The small table wasn’t clean good. Lamp was missing the shade. We just try to stay out of the room most of the time. The place needs a lot of improvement.

Went back to the front desk and was given two more keys to try. Second room had black hair in the bed and more ants, third room did not have working electricity. All rooms reek of smoke. There were vagrants in the parking lot yelling for a dog or something. The lady at the front desk said I would be refunded when I told her I was leaving but I havnt been. The hotels across the street are an oasis compared to this nightmare. If you are not on drugs you do not belong in this hotel. Zero stars.

We tried to check in 2 hours after we were able to and they said the room wouldn’t be ready for another hour. The condition of the motel wasn’t good so we decided to not stay.

Not that clean. And way too much noise after 10pm. A lot of stuff going on outside your room. I definitely wouldn’t recommend unless you like that type of stuff!!

Most rundown motel I've ever stayed at. Balcony was crumbling doors were in poor shape. Bathroom door had a hole in. Poured down rain and rain was coming under the door. Drug addicts staying there like alot of them and they were out on the balcony being very noisey all hours of the night. Mattresses were bad very uncomfortable. We had a homeless man sleeping outside our door. I tried to use the expedia website to report it and it kept saying it was down. Im from ohio and was there for a job interview 5 hours from home and had to go to the interview tired because i was kept awake half the night from drug addicts. We left a day early just to get out of there. Was not offered no reimbursements or anything. Absolute worse motel experience ever id take them off expedia asap before other ppl have this same experience!!!!!

Got there at 3:30 and was told that the room may not be ready for 3 hours. We were in town for a wedding and had the rehearsal that night. We ended up having to settle for a full size bed. Big gap under the front door, no door handle on the bathroom, low water pressure, dirty TP under the bed, bugs flying everywhere. Lots of weird activity outside at all times. Pretty sure most the rooms have ppl permantly living in them!!! Yes the rate was cheap- but WOW!!! I guess it’s true you get what you pay for!!! Would never recommend this place to anyone. We paid for 2 nights and went home after the 1st. Disgusting that’s for sure.

Dirty!!! Had problems with the door . Found hair in bathroom. Fecal matter on toilet seat. Mattress sunken in. Front was trashy from others partying into wee house in the a. M. Loud music and loud talking. Cigarette butts, beer cans, in front , along with other trash. Altogether a bad experience.

The staff of very nice, beyond that, travelers should avoid this property unless there is no other choice. Dirty, dirty, dirty. Everything is broken and dirty. Holes in the walls, torn sheets, curtains and towels. Blood, yes blood, stained pillows. Water damaged floors and furnishings. Rotting food and trash in the breezeway for weeks. Overflowing trash recepticles everywhere. Matresses with broken springs and giant lumps and dips. I was there for a month for work and had no other choice. I had to clean my own room, change my own sheets and towels, and provide my own toilet paper. Not one single visit from housekeeping even after I requested housekeeping. People milling about the parking lot all night long fighting and arguing. Harleys starting up outside my window every night until 4am. The guy upstairs screaming at his girlfriend nightly while she slammed the door and threw furniture, presumably at him. On the bright side, the prostitute upstairs told me she would make sure nobody messed with my car. I can say, nothing happened to my car during the stay.

Homeless wandering around back off property, prostitute working on back steps trying to get clients, and room VERY smoky. Absolutely disgusting and unsafe. I immediately returned to lobby and told clerk I would not be staying. She didn't seem surprised, nice lady.

The room was disgusting. The bed had broken Springs with giant different in it. There was a hole in the bathroom door it was semi clean. There was mold on the wall behind the toilet. The shower didn't get hot. The outside had trash and people launching around drinking alcohol until the middle of the night around a bonfire.. Do not ever stay at the hotel if you value your life and your safety.

No Fridge. No Microwave. No Lamps. No Trash Can in the room. Strange Shower with poor water pressure. No Breakfast of any kind. Coffee was awful. TV Channel selection was garbage. WIFI was FREE but spotty and dropped daily. No Remote for the TV when I got in and it took an Hour to get it and I had to GO BACK for it because they obviously quit looking. I Travel KY a ton and the only thing worse I have ever seen was Roach Infested... but it had a Fridge, Lamps, Microwave, Trash Can etc etc. I will NEVER GO BACK to this place. And I MUST return to Owensboro in the future.

Should have read the reviews before booking… Staff was very friendly and helpful, but the property was a train wreck. My room did not have a working smoke alarm, in fact it was sitting on the table with the battery compartment opened. Trash can still had the previous occupant's stuff in it. Mattress was thin and covered in plastic under the sheet, so I woke up in the middle of the night sweating from it. There was a loud bang everytime I got up from the bed from something in the frame. Wi-Fi password was not disclosed at check-in but I did not follow up to ask either (just wanted to go to sleep due to late arrival). Floor was dirty. Mostly due to the mattress sweat, would not stay at this property again.
