Hey for 45 dollars and remodeled how can you go wrong? The flat screens are nice. The showers have good power and the heat works great. The staff is friendly and really care. Why spend over 100 a night when you get a clean room for half that. read more

Overall, it was a decent stay. The location was great, not far from the UM campus and close enough to a mall and other useful shops and eateries. Costco is across the street if you have a membership! Staff: super friendly and accommodating! Once I got to my room and settled in a bit, the front desk called to see how I was doing. I let them know the room was a little smoky smelling so they quickly moved me. Room: it is was quite decent for a motel. There were a few cobwebs but nothing crazy. The pillows were kind of sucky, more like bag of cotton balls rather than a pillow. Make sure you bring some slippers, the floor of the room is sketch. Motel location: it was off the road a little and looked abandoned during the day but at night the parking lot filled up quickly. There's also a pool, if you're into that. read more

Motel 6 - Shot of a 2 queen bed room - Hotels Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

See all

Motel 60's! We were surprised to see the 2001 A Space Odyssey/IKEA/Danish Modern style rooms. They redecorated after the new anti-smoking law a couple of years ago in Michigan. More about that below. We came here during a power outage (we live down the street). Decor might seem a bit cold to those who don't understand it but then again, this is how I decorate at home and I liked it. They now have Pergo flooring, which is much easier to clean up after the puppers have an accident. We were very disappointed that the advent of the Michigan No-Smoking in any hotel room law has resulted in the fact that ABSOLUTELY EVERY ROOM IS NOW A SMOKING ROOM. They're supposed to just smoke outside out of the goodness of their hearts? Smokers care about their hearts? Our bed cover actually had cigarette burns in it! And it smelled horrible. Like Mother in Law's house. Bring air freshener!!! Good price, cool flat screen TV. read more

Well, you get what you pay for. Price was around $100 during the Michigan-MSU football weekend. Cheapest price around, but definitely a cheap place. They *say* they are strictly non-smoking, but unfortunately it smelled like a hooker-ridden bowling alley. A few improvements could really go a long way here: - Include shampoo! those tiny bottles that hotels provide would suffice, even if they charged for them - Make the doors slam-resistant. The building structure feels like that of a storage unit, which produces an unmuffled boom when the doors are shut. It was kind of odd that they invested in a fancy, modern TV setup but skimped on the basics. I'm here for a shower and sleep, not to hang out in the room. Overall, the staff was friendly and they had a decent laundry room, but the location and aforementioned shortcomings left it at about, for me, a $50 value. read more

I stayed here because of the price of course when I booked online, and proximity to the Dr. office I would be going to. But when I got there I noticed that I was really in the center of everything I would need. There was food everywhere, right off the freeway, the mall, Walmart, and Michigan University. The room was very clean, and the staff was great, from my check-in with Denise who saved me even more money, Lori the cleaning lady that was very efficient and concerned when I finally let her in to clean my room after my surgery, to Melissa the lady at desk when i checked out. My first few days was a lil noisy. Not overwhelming noisy, just distracting. The first day, the guy in next room was snoring so damn loud I called him "bear". Second nite, a couple checks into same room and I want to think they were maybe celebrating their honeymoon. I called them "rabbits" because there's no way in hell you have sex that much loud sex in one nite with each other and actually enjoy it unless you're celebrating something or new relationship :). The walls was so thin, I even heard the open their cans of beer in between sessions lol (no joke). Third nite, guy checks into same room with the worst gas. I called him the "communicator" because his a$$ and his stomach was having a serious conversation. Yes you guys, that's how thin the walls are. Oh yeah, the toilet in the room would start running out the blue, but all I had to do was call Denise at the front desk, and she and her maintenance guy was right on it. Let me just say, after all the distractions from that one room and the sink, Denise did offer to move me to another. I declined at that point it started to get amusing. read more

I booked through an online service and was supposed to be charged $76. She rang it up as $85 and stated there were additional fees. After entering the room, I almost went to request a refund, but we were only there to sleep and wouldn't be in the room much so I shrugged off the dirty and damaged room - #427. The room was half-assed remodeled to look modern. The laminate flooring had huge gaps in it and one spot was broken. My boyfriend and I never went barefoot in the room because of that and the dirtiness. There was a hole in the bathroom door as well. The fridge/freezer was dusty on the outside and dirty on the inside. It looked like gum and a layer of ice in the freezer. The towels and sheets were scratchy and low quality. We decided not to shower as there was mold...and didn't want to exfoliate with the towels. Oh...and it smelled slightly like smoke and pets. As we left, we spotted a man hanging out his door while scratching himself and smoking a cigarette. The only plus was the location, which was easy to find and close to downtown. read more

Had to get my money back after checking in and seeing my room. There were dead roaches in my room, burns all over the floor and shady characters hanging out outside. When we spoke with the woman at the front desk she didn't seem fazed at all and only offered us another room and said the fire alarm would be going off all night in that room for some reason. Got the money back. Adios. read more

This was quite the experience. I checked in last Friday night. The floor was dirty. Someone's hair was all over my pillow. The bed brought back memories of my military days when I slept on cots out in the field. The mattress was thin and covered with a thin blanket. I unrolled a towel to use and a big centipede came crawling out of it. I apologized to the bug cuz I didn't know he was using it. So I let him keep it and I grabbed another one that thankfully was free from any unseen occupants. My next door guests enjoyed their pot so much that they shared the lovely smoke with me. Yep, it felt like camping- dirt, bugs, and maryjane smoke wafting in the air. So if you are looking for an experience then this is the Motel for you! Bring shower shoes, a hair dryer (cuz they don't offer you one), a broom, air freshener, and a sleeping bag. read more

After reading some of the reviews here I had some trepidation about staying there, but it turned out the stay (three days) was fine. Room was clean, bedding was clean. The WiFi was terrible, but had my own MiFi so not an issue. And the TV would work for about five minutes and then lose signal. Again, I did not really care since I don't watch much TV. Good location, near a Tim Horton's. The staff is very friendly and they know what they are doing. I would stay there again, and most likely will. I gave four stars instead of five for the WiFi and TV issues. read more

Staff was friendly and the room was clean. WiFi is not free. Basic rooms few amenities. Wouldn't stay there again .

Suprisingly nice motel esoecially coming from someone not very fond of motels. Great place to crash after a 6 hour drive. Newly renovated and so very clean. Spacious Rooms. Nice staff. Close to the Briarwood mall and UMICH. Awesome price $49/night. Will definitely stay here again. read more

I didn't want to splurge on accomodation at the Ritz Carlton when I was visiting schools in the area so decided to opt for Motel 6 instead. My first motel in the US! haha. Pleasantly surprised at the great room facilities for the paltry sum I paid for accomodation. Since I got this as an online rate, I was given the room furthest away from the reception. Oh well... still bang for the buck. However, if you were to ask me these days.... I try to steer clear of motels :) read more

We love the new design of the Motel 6s. They're clean, contemporary, fresh, and the staff was very friendly. Our family slept comfortably and quietly, and we would definitely return. read more

This had to be the dirtiest room I've ever seen. The sheets where dirty, there was piles of dirt in every corner of the room and it looked like someone got sick on the wall in the bathroom. DO NOT STAY HERE!!! read more

Simply not impressed as a customer of their level of customer service. If you want to be the best, you have to start training like the best... I can't tell if these are actual policies or just a new & nervous associate! read more

Our non-smoking room stunk of cigarette smoke. I wanted to change rooms, but they were full. After eleven hours on the road we decided to tough it out and stay anyway. In retrospect we would have been better off sleeping in our car. read more

I stayed there with a friend and her 1 year old daughter this past weekend. It mostly seemed OK to me, but my friend had a one year who's walking now, and she was upset about how dirty the floor was. I didn't really notice it. But there were stains and cigarette burns on the comforters. The beds were very uncomfortable. The bathroom was small and not very clean. It was almost impossible to shut the bathroom door. I think it was painted too many times? I'm not sure. And my friend said the place where the towels were stored were full of dust. That annoyed my friend when we saw a cleaning lady cleaning an outside window. Like why was she doing that when the inside wasn't cleaned? They didn't give us enough towels and didn't give us any more washclothes. They left the used ones in the room like we were supposed to reuse them? But the thing that really annoyed me was that when we checked in, I paid for two nights. We spent the first night there, then went out the next day. When we came back, the keys to our room didn't work. I saw a housekeeper and asked her for help. I had to go to the bathroom urgently. She said oh sorry, you'll have to go to the office. OK no help from her. So I treked over to the office and the lady behind the counter was leisurely checking someone in. I sort of cut in because I really had to go. I said my keys aren't working and I really have to go to the bathroom, is there one I can use while I wait? The lady behind the counter said I could use the bathroom at the pool, but it requires a key card. Duh! I just told you mine doesn't work!! So I said um there isn't another one I can use? I don't believe there isn't an employee one. And she was like sorry you'll have to wait until I'm done with this customer. The customer even offered to let me go first, but the lady ignored her. Finally she checked in the lady and she ran my keys and said you should already be checked out, so your keys are deactivated. I said what? We're here for two nights and I PAID for two nights yesterday! She's like, oh yeah I see that. Eventually we got it fixed and I was able to hold it. But needless to say, I was very annoyed. I understand the room isn't going to be perfect, you get what you paid for. But I expect a little better service. I'm just going to splurge and not try to go with such a cheap room again. read more

Have to agree with other yelpers. The room was updated and seemed to have a cozy feel to it but it could have been cleaner. There were corners with dirt spots and seemed like they did a quick clean job in the room between guests. It was nice that the parking was outside your room so you can keep an eye on your car. It's a great alternative if you don't want to stay in Detroit or if you want to stay Cheap. Will be a decent place to stay but don't expect it to be above 3 stars. They did have a nice tv though. read more

Pretty decent hotel. No complaints. The little banquette was cute. Close to everything.

We had booked a reservation through an online service for this hotel based on it's reviews score. Arriving at the hotel the entrance driveway was full of potholes trash and Unkept Landscaping. As we pulled up to the hotel; doors were open, windows were open and some very sketchy individuals were loitering around the property. When I walked into the lobby to check in there was a woman arguing about her key and another woman arguing about payment. I felt extremely uncomfortable and unsafe in the neighborhood. They were nice enough to cancel my reservation because they did not have a king-size room available as we requested on the site. I politely left and drove 1 mile down the road to the red roof Inn which was such a complete surprise for being so close to the other one and $10 more. I am sure this hotel is adequate. it just wasn't for us. read more

I was here for a boxing tournament and I encountered very rude workers and disgusting bathrooms. I can't take a shower without the tub getting clogged up. read more

So happy to find a perfectly nice reasonable priced hotel in Ann Arbor. Nicely designed, clean, simple room. Everything worked well. Liked the fact that the floors are not carpeted, seemed much cleaner than most hotels. Found the room to be very pleasant and the staff to be nice and helpful. Location very close to the highway but not right on it which was nice. read more

i was shocked...this was actually not a bad stay! fun, retro styling. i like that fact that there was not carpeting, but hard floors. wish that they would have provided some shampoo or conditioner, but this place is certainly worth staying at if you're crashing in ann arbor, mi. friendly, helpful staff. great water pressure. they even had a 32" hdtv with inputs so you could hook it up to your laptop! way more up to date than some place i've stayed at. read more

So what this isn't the best motel in the world or the state, it doesn't try to be. Sure there are a few douche-bag employees. The rest of them are very hard working and friendly as anyone you would hope to meet. I've stayed here a total of 12 days over 2 stays and never had a sour experience. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because It doesn't have gold faucets. 4/4(with a spiritual 5 for the golden faucets.) read more

We booked our room through an online service, check-in date of Aug. 10 & check-out date of Aug. 13. On our way driving from the office to our room #227, we had to drive through a 4x5 ft. hole with dirt, stones & debris in the middle of the road. After entering the room, we noticed that there was no shampoo, no Kleenix, no hair dryer, & no coffee pot. Twice we had to have our key card reset, because we were locked out. When we went to the ice machine, it was empty. There were dents & gouges around the lock on our door from the outside. The floors in general & the bathroom floor were especially filthy (turning a white washcloth black). The toilet was very dirty as well. We were extremely disappointed in the condition of our room for the amount of $264.15. read more

Stayed here for two years in a row while in town for a Nascar race. Last year was better-this year, bedspreads had cigarette burns even though it's a non smoking hotel, and we got stuck in a room right next to the pool. Being the germaphobe I am, I clorox wipe/lysol everything, so it killed the stale smell in the room, but the phone was nasty (and missing all buttons except the keypad), and parts of the floor looked iffy. The bathroom door had scotch tape stuck to it, and there were dirty finger prints all over the back of the door. The 'nightstand' between the two beds has a piece of the edging coming off, and it looked like nobody bothered to clean the shelf next to the table, because there was a wadded up piece of paper there (that didn't come from us). There was a microwave/fridge in the room, and the fridge had a horrible smell in it, so we just didn't use it. The beds were clean minus cigarette burns in the bedspread. They jack the price up to $95 a night on race weekend, but because it's relatively convenient to get to the track from the hotel, the price isn't so bad. read more

Motel 6 has a cheep price compared to other hotels, so you can't beat it for economy, but I am finding that in 2 different motel 6's that I have stayed in, the quality was not up to the standards that are advertised on TV and the radio. When I arrived at this motel late at night, I walked into my room and it smelled like cigarette smoke and there was a burn hole in the bedspread (strangely enough I had the same experience at the Motel 6 in Laffayette, IN - smokey smelling room and burn hole in the bedspread). I asked to be changed to another room that didn't have a burn hole in the bedspread and didn't smell like smoke. So they put me in a room for disabled people, which they didn't tell me, so when I got to the bathroom after settling in, I saw that there was a built in wooden bench in the tub and a handheld shower head, which I didn't want. I wanted to be able to take a bath and the built in wooden bench was in the way, and I wanted a normal shower head. The 3rd room they put me in was nice, except that I had to slam my body hard against the door to try to open it, but I couldn't. I got a man to help me open it, and he also struggled to get the door open by slamming his weight against it. It finally opened for him. When I asked if they could fix the door the girl at the desk got huffy with me and said that they were all like that and there weren't anymore. She had an attitude with me ever since I asked to get a non smoking room. So I called the main Motel 6 number and complained, and now I am moving to a 4th room, which I can open the door on, and the room seems nice. I am working hard every day while staying in Ann Arbor, so I don't need the extra aggravation. What I was asking for was normal standards of any hotel. I shouldn't be made to feel that I am a bad person or bitch just for wanting normal hotel/motel standards, but I was made to feel that way by the staff. This hotel was been substandard. I am beginning to think that all Motel 6's are of low standard quality. So, you get what you pay for. read more

Ehhh. I found a large toenail under my pillow, which was surprising because everything else was very clean. The wireless is horrible. I write this in a window of probably 3 minutes I have before the wireless crashes for the fourth time during my stay, and stays out for another hour or so. However, the staff has been very nice. read more
