    The door had a deadbolt on it and you could tell, do to the lose screws, that the door has been kicked in a few times, obviously people want to stay here. While there were significant number of people doing drugs in the parking lot, I couldn’t find the dealer.☹️

    So day 1 go to turn on the heater heaters broke it only blows out cold I asked the office to fix it they say unfortunately all the rooms are booking there's nothing we can do fine I'll deal with the cold room I go into the bathroom to start washing up and getting ready for bed there's a pile of ants the wall is cracked the shower curtains molded it's disgusting. Let's say about 1:00 in the morning I hear people outside my window they're literally dealing drugs yelling screaming I call the office to ask them to get it under control he says he will continue to go on for another two and a half hours that was the first night I stayed there... Let's say Saturday we leave come back everything seems so calm and quiet I say oh yes tonight's going to be a good night wrong I'm in the downstairs room at 11:00 in the night people above me have their child running from the hallway bathroom to the window doing circles back and forth and the child is just laughing I want to see the child was about two or three being that I was able to run around so therefore why is your child not laying down WHY is your child running around back and forth I asked them nicely can you please quiet it down sure sure sure we'll get it under control go back to my room within 10 minutes it's back going again I finally decide I'm going to put the pillow over my head and go to sleep I get woken up at 3:00 in the morning to I called the office they say they will go ahead and make a call yet it continued till 4:30am

    The mattress was halfway comfortable Nobody at the check-in office nor does anybody answer the phones I have people knocking on my door at 11 o’clock at night wanting to know if I wanna smoke crystal meth with them and I have a 13-year-old with me it’s not a good place and when you try to call to get help because you’re right next-door to the office but don’t wanna go out of the door because they’re literally crackheads out there. Nobody answers the phone. Not calling the office or the reservation line for the motel nor did they come online at all with anything when we got here they wanted me to write down the name of my 13-year-old granddaughter so that they had her name on the records, which is absolutely a no, no I do not need door. Should I have to give a minor‘s name to a facility owner that they’re staying here at least I would not think so. Also, when I did the reservation, I was pretty sure it said $89. It could’ve been 98 and then when I checked in, I had to pay 111 I thought that was a little different but I know there’s sometimes the taxes that they don’t tell you I didn’t have to put a credit card down. I was very thankful for that but nothing in the rooms no alarm clock no nothing a TV with a funky TV stand no microwave no kitchen bathroom is decent and that’s about it.

    The clerk was rude, he didn't want to give us the wifi password even though we are paying customers. He said it was company policy not to give it to guess. No hot water to shower with. It was extremely noisy from guess up stairs from us and company didn't do anything to quite it down. we never got our microwave or refrigerator, all in all it was the worst stay we ever experienced. We will never book a stay there again and highly recommend that no one ever go there

    Room said it had a microwave and a mini fridge but nothing, second if you couldn’t find a parking spot you were forced to park on the side walk and possibly get a ticket if you don’t move it between 8-9 am, the only convenient thing it close by the convention center for events and some fast food restaurants.

    When we got there our room was not cleaned so they put us in another room. The t.v. wouldnt work or wifi. There was bugs in the bathroom. The microwave had to be put on the floor to plug it in, at night time we had a guy yelling for abiut a hour, and the manager never came to tell the guy to leave. The next night people were fighting in the parking lot. The 3 days there hardly got any sleep, the comforter had stains on it. Wont ever stay there again, i have stayed in nice motel 6, but this onecwas bad. Oh and i was going to pay in cash there, they already took the money off my bank card, now i dont have the money for rent.

    The room smelled heavily of cigarettes. The water, even on its hottest setting, was never over lukewarm. The water pressure in the shower was also little to nothing. This made it very difficult to wash any soap off. There was no mini fridge or coffee maker and no options for any kind of breakfast snacks or food in the lobby. The staff was amazing though and they would be the only reason I’d come back to this location specifically.

    The hotel is nothing like the pics! The dollies had soda? spilled and the entire room was sticky. Holes in walls. Ashes in lamp. Lamp without lightbulb. Top comforter had cig burns. TV tilt was broken and it slanted up toward ceiling. No hand towels. Wash clothes had pubic hairs. Towels had very long gray hairs all over! After I dried my hands I had to untangle grey hairs off me!!! And to top it off, when my son and I woke up, the floor was flooded. We grab our stuff and left very quickly!

    You get what you pay for. My partner and I only settled for this hotel because of how close it is to the climate pledge. It was a 7 minute walk. The actual hotel itself was not good. We ended up door dashing some towels, sheets/comforter, and air freshener. The towels were dirty, they had red hard sticky stuff on it! Like food or I don’t know what it was but I was not about to use those towels. The bed sheets had cigar holes on it and reeked of smoke. The whole room smelled like cigar smoke even though it was a non-smoking room. I would not stay there again but if you decide to because it’s affordable and close to climate pledge, I recommend taking your own sheets, towels, and air freshener.

    Location is convenient. This is very close to the oregon convention center. The room is what we can expect from a motel6. Note that while the description said there are fridge and microwave, it actually doesn't have fridge and microwave in the room. Previous reviews complained about noise on the street. To me, noise is not a problem. In fact, I believe all lodgings in the area are noisy due to the tram service but it is not that bad.

    Other than the bed, television, and a chair, the room lacked furniture. Two of the light bulbs were bad which the manager immediately fixed. Three of the six wall outlets did not work which the manager could not fix. Parts of building were falling apart such as the grille in front of the fan and a buckled exterior support column. The light rail stopped in front of the motel which could be heard in the evening.

    Disgusting place. If you’re thinking of staying here—don’t. You will be up all night, beyond uncomfortable, tossing and turning, wondering if you’re safe. To those who run this motel: CLEAN YOUR ROOMS!! REPLACE YOUR BEDDING!!! There is no reason these rooms should be this poorly maintained. Fix the light fixtures half-hanging off the walls and the pug ins that don’t charge. Change the stained, ripped sheets. Scrub the writing off of the doors. Air out the rooms so they don’t REEK of cigarette smoke in Non-Smoking rooms. If you had any pride in this place, you’d do better for yourself and your guests. And update your website, stop lying about providing amenities you did away with years ago. At least be honest when trying to sell this place. Unless that is intentionally deceptive and you’re running a scam, which I’m well convinced you are given your don’t-care attitude.

    No mini fridge, no microwave, and cigarette burned sheets. I am not sure if most of their customers steal or destroy all their furniture. The first night was woke at 1am where the neighbors was screaming at a crackhead about smoking his stuff. The attitude of the people running the place is understandable. I was booked for two nights and getting clean towels was like a hostage negotiation.

    Most of the time I consider Motel 6 to be a clean, no frills sleeping box and nothing more. While this was not by any means the worst hotel I’ve stayed in, it definitely skews a bit on the grungy side. Mostly it was the little things like; the tv was crooked, it had this old beat up dinette table with a very uncomfortable wood chair, the bathroom fan was extremely loud and the bedding seamed very old.

    The room smelled like someone recently smoked something in it, but it wasn’t a smoke I was familiar with. The smoke detector was covered in plastic. The sheets on the bed had about 8 burn holes in them. They were cleaned, but still put back on the bed. Someone also dropped a little straw behind the bed, that I would assume they were using to snort cocaine. Luckily I found it before my son did. All of this being said, I was VERY entertained by the homeless lady tweeking outside. The large window points directly at the sidewalk where she had her tent set up. She was up all night fidgeting with her tent and reorganizing her stuff. They clearly can’t do much about the homeless population, but they should maintain their parking lot, and should not be putting sheets back on the bed that have burn holes in them.

I was on hold with them for close to an hour, I tried to explain this to the people there, but they didn’t care the just kicked us out, even tho I explain that I will keep the room just need to clear with the bank. They didn’t care, was worse they didn’t believe me. The manager was rude and according to the girl up front order us out. I use hotels.com with all my bookings. I’ll never stay at another motel 6 , again this place was pricey too. $95 for 1 night here, I’ve stayed at the Sheraton or Hilton for less than that.

Lack of sprinkler and smoke alarm is against fire regulations. I expect a voucher to reimburse us for such a disapointing stay at this Motel 6.

    The pictures on the website must be from when they first build the motel because it was in terrible condition. Dirty beyond belief and slept on top of the sheets in fear of what was under them. Fixtures off the wall, obvious rips/stab marks in the bed spread that had been patched back together and stains on the lamp that did not work. I have stayed in some pretty cheap places but this place was beyond filthy and such a disappointment. If I could have canceled upon seeing the room I would have slept in my car. I do not recommend this hotel at all.

We booked a non-smoking room however the bedspreads on both beds had multiple cigarette burns, unknown stains (I don’t know when the last time they were washed is?!?), the floors were dirty, they don’t use protectors under the super thin pillow cases and the pillows are all brown and gross. The shower was dirty and there was something black floating on the toilet. The only good thing about this property was the front desk clerk. I was pretty upset about how dirty the room was and didn’t want to stay here. He let us cancel/refund the room after checking in so we went and stayed somewhere else.

    This property was AWFUL !!!! I would not advise ANYONE to stay here EVER !!!! They must have 1 or 2 rooms that they used for their online photos, I did not even shower because it was that disgusting AND they did not even give you shampoo !!! There was mold in the bathroom on the tile floor, the door did not even lock properly. The tram runs all night long right out front which is VERY loud, I did not sleep well AT ALL !!! From the 1 bed you could not even see the television and when my son laid on the bed he rolled in the middle because the mattress was so old. I will NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN !!! The cost for 1 sleepless night $110 dollars, what a waste, wish I had read the reviews before booking !!! BE WARNED DO NOT STAY HERE !!!!!

    The room reeked of cigarette smoke even though it was a non smoking room. The smoke detector in the room was disconnected from the wall.

    The door handle was barely holding on. The room was not really clean, as in the floor wasn’t swept and the sheets were awful and the pillows old and lumpy. It was actually kind of a scary location, and the parking was filled up by early afternoon.

    Absolutely terrible stay at this motel. Our room wreaked of bleach when we entered. The toilet seat was broken off and just set back in place. The bed had hair and fuzz all over it. The pillows felt like lumps of cotton stuffed into an oversized sac. There were homeless people all over the place, including one that I caught checking doors to see if they were locked. Police were called. One of the guests below us was banging around in their room from 11pm until we finally fell asleep at 3am. Around midnight, we saw this guest come out of the room and wander around outside flailing his arms and talking to himself - he was definitely high on something. We saw this man go up to the night window and speak with the front desk staff as well. At about 1am, after watching several people go in and out of this room, (doors slammed with each person as well as banging around in the room) we asked the front desk if they could do anything and he acted like he didn’t know what we were talking about. I told him we saw the man come and talked to him and he still played dumb. I would not be surprised if they knew something illegal was going on. I am not afraid to stay in junky hotel rooms but this was absolutely unacceptable.

    Showed up early to the area wanted to check in at 5:30am Typically one would pay a reduced rate or a fee for it, but clerk wanted to charge a full days rate for 4 hours. I left and returned at 1:50pm then again the clerk had me wait the 10 min for check in. He asked for my name and didn’t ask for ID. Got to the room and it smelled of weed, the sheets had burn marks on them or patches of areas that where burnt and the bath room towel bar was broken. I would not recommend this place to anyone unless it was a last resort.

    The ONLY thing that I liked was the location to where I needed to be. It says free parking online, but when you get to the motel it is first come first served, there wasn't even enough room for one car per room. I had to park a block away and pay extra for parking. The calking around the tub was black, the phone didn't work, fridge and microwave were broken, and one of the queen beds was broken as well. I will never stay at this hotel again

    You get what you pay for with this Motel 6, and I think I'll pay more next year. It's close to the Oregon Convention Center, but so is The Inn, so I will be staying there next year.

    Wasn’t the best motel I stayed at in Portland. Some of the outlets did not work. I only have 1 lamp that was working in the room, only had 1 light in the bathroom because the light above the mirror had burn out bulbs. Bed was okay, not the best motel in the area. Won’t stay here again.

    Constant rumbling from the tram on both cross streets felt like I was staying in the proverbial shack by the railroad tracks.. Every 15 minutes a loud rumble shook the entire building. Convenient to the convention center though!, and saved about 40 bucks on additional parking. Wifi was abysmal. Staff acted like they would rather be somewhere else. AC wasn't much quieter than the tram rumbling - Stay here if you are a really sound sleeper.

    The room smelled like poison-what ever cleaners they use are super smelly. The beds didn’t have frames just box springs on the floor. The bathroom had holes in the drywall and exposed electrical outlets. The shower sprayed water all over the bathroom from a crack in the pipe. Our front door didn’t close all the way. We had to engage the deadbolt to keep it from being just shoved open. I’ve stayed in third-world motels that we’re better than this.

    We chose this place as one of the cheapest with a decent location. It is right near the rail line and the sound proofing is quite bad, so you hear the transit line all night. The non-smoking room smelled like cigarette smoke and there were cigarette burn holes in the bedding. The tv had no remote. The room had many fruit flies, especially in the bathroom. It was a very unpleasant place to stay and we got out of there as soon as we could in the morning.

    Door bolt not working. Bathroom light over sink not working. No spindle for toilet paper roll. Curtains falling off rod, several hooks missing. Reported these problems - door bolt - no locksmith available that day, I was offered to move. Other problems never resolved. Asked for a wake up call- never got it! Very noisy neighborhood with trolleys nearby rattle and noise not blocked well. Vagrants outside thru all hours of the day/night, one man a seeming schizophrenic talking to himself/ or suffering from a psychosis. Called to report this - 0800a.m. no answer from hotel clerk. Informed him in person and I was told to call 911, apparently can not answer the phone at times. I won't stay at any of your motels now. I saved money, but felt unsafe and the noise was not conducive to sleep. I lost many hours of sleep due to noise/worry. On my reservation, I asked for an upstairs room, never got it.

    Pros: Location is excellent. Staff we encountered were efficient and reasonably friendly. Our room was pretty clean and fairly spacious, with comfy enough bed. No frills, but provided basic needs. Decent price for what we got. Cons: Property is definitely showing its age... lots of little things like torn curtains, cigarette burns on the linens, broken lights, etc. The biggest issue was that our door lock had some issues, where the security latch would not close from inside (deadbolt worked fine), and door would not lock behind us from outside, unless we sort of lifted it up while closing it. Once we figured out that little trick, it was fine.

    Generally there is at least a refrigerator or a microwave or coffee pot there wasn't any of those in the beds were horribly uncomfortable. There was one restaurant which was closed when we got out of the concert from the Moda Center and nothing particularly close open for late-night dinner. Only convenient part about it was being close to the concert venue. Our door was broken and the guy came immediately to fix it oh, so that was pretty awesome. Also it's a good thing we didn't drive because there was nowhere to park as the parking lot is really small. I don't think the beds had been replaced in a hundred years oh, that's how uncomfortable they were. It was clean and quiet though

    This is a BYOSL hotel, (Bring your own shampoo and lotion.) It’s kind of an unpleasant surprise to find no shampoo when you arrive and have just one hour to get ready for an event. The areas around the doorway& steps were dirty. The door knob was missing from our bathroom. It’s noisy- I can live with the sound of MAX rumbling past, but the verbal skirmishes & rants from the local drunks managed to wake us up periodically. The location is convenient.
