Worst hotels you’ve stayed at

[Turkeytop]

Motel 6, Emerson Ave Parkersburg WV. What a dump! the floor was uneven between the bathroom and the room, causing a serious tripping hazard. The flooring itself was a poorly installed laminate Pergo type flooring, uneven gaps and all. The A/C unit was on it's last legs as it dripped condensation onto the floor. The place was a cluster mess but it was cheap, so that was the only good thing.



I've never had any reason to ever stay there but there is this dive in Monroe MI called Motel 7. I mean the name alone, makes me think it's the dollar general brand version of Super 8 or Motel 6. It looks quite bad.

Motel 6 are all dumps. Don't go there.

Could never understand why motels like Super 8 would want a brand that might even remind anyone of Motel 6.

We have Motel 6 in Canada. They aren't affiliated in any way with the real Motel 6. They are just paying for the rights to use the brand. Why?

Whereas the real Motel 6 buys old, run down properties and continues running them that way, the Canadian chain, calling itself Motek 6, builds brand new hotels and devalues them by using that brand. I don't get it.

I stayed at a 6 in Erie PA last year, it was decent as it was recently remolded. I could tell it used to be a Knights Inn. I also stayed at one in Western NY state, it was ok as was the one in Traverse City MI was decent.

They start out as a decent, brand name hotel like Holiday Inn or Best Western. But as the property ages and starts to run down they go down brand like Day's Inn, Howard Johnson, Ramada Inn or Knight's Inn. Motel 6 is pretty much the end of the line.

I’ve stayed at the Motel 6 along the Ohio Turnpike at the Sandusky, Ohio (Cedar Point) exit. A very nice and clean modern hotel. When you just need a bed for the night and a shower in the morning, it’ll work…

You could try the Homeless Shelter.

I've stayed at Motel 6's across the country the last few years, never had an issue , did have the Effingham Illinois Police knock at our room door at 5am one time back in 2012, looking for someone, who we had no idea who they were...lol

I'm just a working class guy. I don't need a lot in the way of amenities. I don't need a pool, a business centre or a fitness room. I don't even need a TV. I just want a clean, comfortable room with no bugs. I tried Motel 6 twice and they failed.

The Holiday Inn Express in Greensburg, Pennsylvania is now a "Sheetz" fast food restaurant, gas & party store back in the Summer of 2018!! The Holiday Inn Express moved down by the other side of Greensburg, PA (where the old Greengate Mall is) near a strip mall near U.S. 30!!

Ramada inns I've noticed are quite subpar, I stayed at one around Bowling Green Kentucky. The Air cond was wonkey, the air smelled of tobacco smoke, and the telly only got 15 channels.

This was long ago but when I was young I remembered we were going to Savanah GA and we stopped someplace in WV, I want to say it was Ripley or Beckley. It was a Days Inn and the room had sand on the floor, mind you we were not close to any beach The room did smell like an ash tray and the outside pool looked disgusting. This was back in 1994, so I'm going off memory but I do remember that much.
