Beds were comfortable. Easy off street parking that was well lit. Multiple dining options within walking distance. Room smelled of cigarette smoke. Only 2 tiny thin towels in room for 3 people. Requested more towels twice before we got them.
We were there for a week as family member was hospitalized at OHSU. Access to hospital was easy and 15 min away.
Poor area full of homeless other people that they were stay here not respect others at 3 am 4 am fighting, talking loud no one cares about nothing at arrival bed was super dirty the matress sheet was terebile not clean at all not recomended at all
They checked me in but told us we couldnt both staay and wouldnt cncel my room. Charged me anyways. It was super messed up. Ive never had such terrible service from motel 6. Im going to write reviews on yelp googlend facebook. Im also contacting better buisness bureau since i cnt seem to get anyone to reply to me or call me back
The only problematic thing about the room was the mattress slid around on the platform bed frame. It was just me & I'm small, but it still moved around quite a bit. With 2 people, it would be a PITA. The room was clean & smelled nice. It was fresh looking & modern. Everything was clean & tidy. The staff that checked me in was just fantastic & so friendly. They knew I was disabled & checked to make sure I didn't need further accommodation. I just stayed the night prior to my early morning surgery & it was a totally peaceful experience. Thank you so much. Can recommend & would stay again.
The room absolutely reeked of pot smoke and stale cigarettes. The AC was vandalized. Car alarms and drug use right outside our window, and suspected prostitution in the parking lot and nearby room. The shower pressure and temperature were decent, so that's something I guess.
The front desk personel are always very kind and helpful. They call me by my first name and make me feel as they truly enjoy my company.

Motel 6, it's there where you need it.
Hotel was clean, front staff very friendly, 4:00 am conversation outside my room asking someone to leave who wasn't registered, not so great.
Make sure to ask for shampoo, they don't provide unless you ask. You get 1 bar of soap.
