A blown opportunity
I don't use this chain much because often I am just skeptical of the places. But the rates compared to others was just too good. I don't mind a cheap alternative but I want safety too. This property is right next too Scottsdale Fashion Square mall and that is often not Motel 6. The motel has an attached breakfast restaurant. The property was well cared for in my opinion. My room was in good shape and housekeeping over three days was outstanding. The problem is during one night the front desk called me at 2am yelling at me about making too much noise. After trying to explain I was not his culprit he went on to a nearby room. I never got back too sleep and had three important business meetings and didn't get back until 11pm. Although I got a bit of an apology the last morning I left I was disappointed in the treatment and attitude. A simple get your butt off your chair and go look could have solved this. He was lazy. The fact is I won't stay here again due to the attitude of indifference. It's a better building than I thought but for me they just blew it.
So so bad!
When you book a room you are doing so for a nights sleep and hopefully a good one. We stayed in room 103. The front clerk while friendly enough could not tell us any of the local area restaurants so we drove around til we found a restaurant. In the morning we were surrounded by stores and restaurants. The floor was sandy and the tub dirty. We got a double bed that was so uncomfortable that I swear it was stuffed with rags. I went to the front office to get more pillows and ask for another room. He just said yes I get that complaint alot. We could not sleep for the entire night. When I went to check out I stated again how unhappy I was with the bed and the refusal of a new room. So very noisy as it is right on a main road. An older lady, talking with her mouth full, said well lots of people like it here and I hear the Marriott has nice beds. Never again.
Perfect Location
Perfect location, a short walk to town. Mark and the lady on reception are very helpful and friendly. The rooms were not too big but adequate. They were clean. The swimming pool area, was clean and relaxing. It is like a little oasis amongst the tower blocks. Perfect and quiet. We had a room out the back.
Basic Needs Motel - Noisy! Near Fire Station
I stayed here for two nights from 11/15-17/2019. I was in town for a seminar and flying out early Sunday morning. This motel is centrally located and in a good spot as far as the downtown area is concerned. It's noisy though. Lots of people at the motel outside talking loudly, laughing, and sounding like they were drunk. This was 2 a.m. on a Sunday morning. Also, this motel is near a fire station because ambulances and fire trucks were passing by full sirens and lights at all times of the day and night. The room was clean and the bed was OK comfortable. Basic needs only, but that's what I wanted on this trip. It was clean! No problem with towels, wash cloths, TV etc. Wifi was slow. Total for two nights with tax was $182. Free parking.
Clean and simple
it Is hard when you make a reservation at a place you are not familiar with. I worry if it will b safe and clean. This hotel filled the bill perfectly. It is next to the fashion square mall and we were very comfortable. We had to wait a few minutes as they finished cleaning a first floor room for us and the floor was still damp from being freshly mopped—definitely a good sign! I would definitely stay again!
