Motel 6 Grand Rapids, MI - Northeast

Marsha Gregory

Came into town for a concert so needed a place for 1 night stay. Price was inflated because it was a holiday weekend...no problem. Staff was pleasant. Bathroom was fair in comparison to other motels. Cracked and falling tiles on walls. Towel bar missing, and sink was clogged so water would not go down. Wash clothes and towels had pubic hairs in them which was disgusting! Thank goodness I travel with my own! Sheets and bedding were clean but itchy. Would not go there again! Upon check out; I relayed this information to front desk clerk & she seemed irritated by my unhappiness and didn't even offer an apology.

Just a heads up, the pictures do NOT match the actual facility. Well, where to start. How about the smell. Like fresh urine soaked urinal cakes and dirty unwashed bodies. The hallways are the absolute worst smelling walk to your disgusting room. Let's move on to our room. We rented a two queen bed room. First thing I did was check for bedbugs due to the uncleanliness of the lobby and hallways. Didn't find any thank goodness. The room itself was very dirty. There was dried splattered blood on the bathroom floor, door and ceiling. Our towels were rolled up with long black hair in them, we didn't dare use the shower due to the filth caked in it. The floors were unvacuumed and filthy. The absolute best part as we went to leave we turned around to be sure our door was closed, there staring back at us was a cockroach. If I could rate it zero I would.

Our stay here was excellent. James helped us immensely and was extremely kind. Our room was clean and the pool was nice. All motel staff was very welcoming and friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

Headline: More of a hostel than a motel. If you have a fairly sturdy constitution and don't mind changing your own bedsheets, this could work for you! I'm quite the Motel 6 connoisseur, having stayed at many of them across the country. I love their pet policy, which allows me to confidently book any branch knowing they will be able to accommodate my large dog. In my experience, the staff are almost always friendly and welcoming, as they were here. However, my stay at this location ranks in the bottom three all-time worst Motel 6 trips. The property is a run-down rabbit warren of a conference center. Security is low because the outside doors are accessible without a key card. The steps and sidewalk are sunken and crumbling. They don't seem to enforce any smoking policies as the halls reek of stale smoke and the bedclothes have cigarette burns in them. The mattress springs are poking through. The worst part of this visit was when I pulled back the bed covers to see that someone had clearly used the bed before I got there. There were the crumbs from a cup of noodles on the sheets, someone else's hair on the pillow, and the clear imprint of someone having slept on the sheets. I returned to the front desk and requested clean sheets, which I put on the bed myself. The pillows were awful. I slept on a scrunched up sweater. The space under the bed was not only filthy but also full of trash. To be fair, I don't expect luxury at a Motel 6. I'd settle for somewhat clean. I didn't get it on this visit. I really would have expected a token of acknowledgement from the management, beyond the verbal apology I received from the receptionist who gave me clean sheets. On the bright side, the water pressure was fantastic!
