- Robert (3/5): -
- Diane (2/5): Wasn’t fit for a dog!! $214, not worth $50!!! - Close to the wedding reception. Whole place reeked of cigarette smoke, one hand towel in room, filthy tub, smoke detector in our room was covered up, 2 tv remotes , neither worked.
- Remy (4/5): you get what you pay for… - convenient location good value holes in the walls the ac didnt work no screen on the window no blanket on one of the beds smelled like cigarette smoke. tv was damaged
- Amanda (1/5): -
- Gary (1/5): Awful - Nothing I booked two rooms, one room had a party of about 15 21 -year-olds drinking with the door wide open and loud at 3:30 in the afternoon and the other room stunk of urine and cigarettes. We had to leave the property to find a new place to stay because it was that bad.

- Kacie (1/5): Human trafficking sign catches your eye right when you enter - Nothing. This was a horrible experience. From the man at the front desk hiding his pill bottles to his creepy friends eyeing us when we came in it was horrible. We felt so unsafe we didn’t even spend the night. Do not waste your money on this smelly property unless it is your absolute last option!!

- Brunson (1/5): If you wanna be overcharged or robbed when asking for bare minimum like a clean room this is the place for you - Horrible experience they lost my business Upon checking into my stay, the front desk associate was nowhere to be found. There was some random guy sitting in the lobby and then he got up and started yelling her name in the hallway she came out, gave me my key and when I went upstairs, my key wasn’t working because there was somebody in the room. The room was already checked in by somebody else I went back downstairs she put me in another room. I had asked for a king room and she gave me two queens on the second floor when I had already preference first floor king room I asked for my refund back and she had told me that she didn’t want to would you like a first floor room I had let her know that I had just worked a double and had been up for almost 24 hours so I’m willing to compromise in regards to a room upon walking in the room to check it before I grab my bags in my car I go into the room. There’s a bed that was as if somebody was laying in it upon going in the bathroom the toilet seat was lifted, pee all over the toilet pee in the shower and on the bathroom sink was toothpaste and a blue liquid on the countertop I go back out to the front desk and I tell her could you take a look at this room and she asks the random guy that’s sitting in the lobby to walk with me to the room to check the room and he doesn’t say anything he goes straight to the bathroom. He comes out of the bathroom leaves the room I go back to the front desk. She says OK we’ll refund you. I wanna talk to my manager. She’s gonna refund you and I wait for my refund the manager walks right past me outside of the front door and leaves and nobody tells me anything so now I’m on the phone with Booking.com in regards to this and they’re saying that the property is not going to refund me after they told me that they were I had to sleep in my car that night because they would not refund me after telling me they were.
- Brunson (1/5): -
- Dorothy (1/5): Worst stay ever! - Cleaning people were curtious but severly understaffed. Room was not ready (cleaned) at 5 pm and had to wait in a cigarette smelling hall until 5:30 pm which made us late for our concert. There were other guests waiting outside thier rooms to be cleaned too. No TV remote so we were unable to turn on the TV. We tried to call down to the office but the room phone was dead. Shower leaked. Bathroom fan was unbearibly loud. Avoid this hotel!!

- christine (3/5): - There was no breakfast offered The soda vending machine was broken, no sign on it when asked the desk associate was informed it’s been broke for a few weeks now. Patches holes in walls, towel rack so loose didn’t hang anything on it bc it was that loose. Lack of cleanliness and appearance when you walk in. Staff was friendly but no one answered when we called for an extra blanket
- Nancy (1/5): I would like my money refunded as I never even brought my luggage up to the room - I did not end up staying at this motel and am trying to get my money back. They had given my room away. The parking lot was filled with trash. The hotel itself did not look clean. The room they gave me smelled so strongly of smoke. I could not even stay in there. There were no simple amenities like shampoo conditioner, and there was one tiny bar of soap for both the hand washing and bathing.
- Sarah (1/5): - Booking.com booked me into a smoking room and when I arrived they told me that this happens all the time with booking.com. due to my asthma I couldn't stay in a smoking room so I had to leave. I worked very hard to try to get a refund but was still charged the full amount. Nobody gave me any help from booking.com and motel 6 was completely unresponsive. I won't ever use booking.com again and obviously, will never stay at this establishment again
- Edward (1/5): Terrible! - I had made 2 reservation at this hotel and when I got to the hotel, they told me that one reservation would not be available. Why was this reservation not available when I had already paid for it. Worse hotel stay of my 74 years. Will never stay with you guys again!
Please refund me my money for the second reservation, you did not honor it!
- Robert (1/5): - The hotel right from the lobby was abysmal, it reeked of marijuana and s
Cigarettes. The room was almost just as stinky. I grabbed my family and ran for a different motel. Refused to give a refund. Absolutely worst experience of my life with any hotel Everything about this hotel was awful. It should be shut down. It is not acceptable conditions for anyone
- Claude (7/5): -
- Holly (1/5): Bad Experience Overall. Hotel Was Unkept. Rundown. And Appeared Unsafe. - Absolutely nothing The hotel looked decent on line but in person it was extremely run down. We walked in and the tv was on but there was no remote control. We checked in around 4pm and checked out around 9pm. There was a police officer in the parking lot moving around which gave us a bad feeling of not being safe.also when we got there a man was sitting on his tailgate of his truck drinking alcohol and was there when we returned from dinner around 8:45.welove newport but this place was not somewhere we would ever sleep overnight and we felt forced to leave.between the other guests,the man drinking by the entrance on his truck and the police presence we definitely felt the need to leave and drive home.we lost our money which did not make us happy.
- Andrew (10/5): -
- JOHN (5/5): -
- Marcy (6/5): It was good enough for one night - Pet friendly. $100 was fair for 1 night room in Newport. Got it on sale tho There was wicked stinky dog pee on the wall. It was a non-smoking room but reeked of cigarettes. Leaky bathtub faucet was annoying. Back door didn't recognize my key card. The entire place had an awful smell.
- Robert (7/5): -
- Sohada (5/5): -
- Andrew (5/5): Best price around. - The ac in our room the first night didn't work and the hot water took forever to come out. The second room was fine but the beds were shy the middle blanket and it was cold!
- Greg (1/5): - We showed up and they were full!! Turned many away that booked with booking.com. It was very stressful finding a room because everyone was full!
Do better!!! I heard it’s common. We will not use your service again!
Paying the difference in hotel prices is not enough for the stress. We want a $100 credit towards a hotel!

- John (5/5): Place needs a renovation. - It was clean and comfortable. They should make all entrances and exits wheelchair accessible. Back door key reader didn’t work.
No housekeeping if staying multiple days.
- Marie-Ève (1/5): Pire hôtel jamais visité. Ne jamais réserver là-bas. - Rien du tout. Pire endroit pour dormir. Sens le cannabis, l'humidité et les animaux. Nous sommes partis en demandant un remboursement et nous n'avons jamais réussi à avoir un remboursement. Tout. Très malpropre, senteur terrible.
- David John (10/5): I will return - Great location. Everything great
- Gily (10/5): Great place to stay when on a budget. - Incredibly friendly staff. Safe location. Well-lit on outside. Plenty of parking. Close to nearby shops and restaurants.
- Bennett (5/5): -
- Katarina (1/5): - Haven’t gotten to speak with the manager or gotten a call back. Have tried to go about it respectfully an was treated poorly by a guy at the front desk
- Keith (9/5): Great hospitality from staff - Next to Walmart Wasn’t nothing
- Angela (1/5): They canceled our reservation when we got there cause we were late but also we re-booked and on their website they said - They never had our reservation and they canceled it. This is the worst place to ever stay at. Dirty and gross
- Branch (7/5): -
- Abunaser (5/5): I stayed at other motel 6s. Those were cleaner. Inside the room It was ok. - Location The carpets outside the room not very clean. Smells bad.
- Maksym (1/5): - Hello. On October 4, 2025, I booked two rooms at your hotel on Booking.com (reservation number 65/1404496). When we arrived at the hotel, reception told us that all the rooms were occupied. I would like a refund for the money I booked. Thank you
- Antonio (1/5): Unreliable property, poor Booking service - Unreliable property, poor Booking service Terrible experience – reservation cancelled without any notice
I had a confirmed reservation at Motel 6 Newport, RI
. When I arrived, the front desk told me that the property had cancelled my reservation on their own and that no rooms were available.
I never received any message, email, or call about this cancellation, neither from the property nor from Booking.com.
On top of that, my reservation still appeared as confirmed on Booking.com, clearly showing that I did not cancel it myself.
The booking was not refundable, which makes the situation even worse and extremely unprofessional.
Because of this, I had to find another accommodation more than 70 miles away, completely changing my travel plans and missing several places I had planned to visit.
I also tried several times to contact Booking.com customer support, both by phone and through chat, but never received any proper assistance or resolution.
I’ve been using Booking.com for many years and this is the first time something like this has ever happened.
It was a very disappointing experience that made me lose trust both in the property and in Booking.com’s customer service.
I strongly advise against booking this hotel – they cancelled my reservation without warning and left me stranded after a long trip.
- Justin (1/5): I will never go back. - Guests were making very loud noise until well past 2 am.
- Freemantle (5/5): - Room smelled like smoke but they swapped it for us Room smell and noisy bed
- Andrew (4/5): If the alteranive is staying at a highway underpass, go for it. - Easy and quick in/out The shower did not function well ... low water pressure, constant trickly of water ... about as good as showering with a backyard hose. When I mentioned the problem in the morning of day one ... hoping for service or, at least, a room swap, no action was taken. The excuse was, "Maintenance does not come on Sundays." Apparently, neither does housekeeping; the bed was not made and no service provided. Coffee offered in lobby was not potable.
- Kenneth (2/5): -
- John (5/5): Place to lay my head down!! - Reasonable price All good
- Nicole (5/5): It was fine and worth noting this is a motel six, I was not expecting the plaza in New York City! - It was very convenient location We were put close to an exit door on the far end of the hotel. Throughout the night consistently people were coming and going, but slamming the door and you could hear it from our room.
- Joon (6/5): -
- Sarah (6/5): Basic no-frills - Comfortable bed, clean linen, good heat/AC. Convenient location near shopping and brewery/restaurants. Musty smell, rundown hallways and public areas.
- Meaney (4/5): - Location, staff Up all nite with people in hallway. Very loud.
- Brittany (2/5): Not worth over 200$! - The check in fella was amazing! We had issues with our room and he moved us to a better room at no cost! Dirty, AC/heat completely broken, beds very uncomfortable, brushed our teeth in the parking lot bathroom was so gross. Little roaches everywhere even on my pillow.
- Stuart (4/5): Sleep with the lights on the cockroachs stay in the walls - The price was ok room smelled clean The cockroaches and the knats
- Vincent (4/5): -
- Ana (10/5): - Very clean, very professional, and very helpful thank you to all of you, you guys are amazing and you guys work hard and you are great team you deserve five stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
- DaleShaffer (5/5): Economical. Gentleman that worked evenings was very nice. Looks like the rooms were renovated recent -
- Patty (10/5): Bare Bones Hotel.Living in Substandard conditions - No coffee pot! No drawers! Room 220. No plug outlets! Rugs. Wet outside in hallway and a ghastly stench of disinfectant everywhere! Opened window; dangerous no screen! Bathtub running constant trickle of water. Toilet roll holder broken; someone left us a toilet paper roll small roll that had already been opened and used.No clock; no Kleenex. No refridgerator. No elevator. No ice machine on 2 nd floor. Unsafe to go downstairs at nite for ice.
- Anna (5/5): It was a great deal and an okay place to sleep for one night. We were thankful for the price point. - Staff was pretty nice. The price was so much cheaper than any other hotel in the area that weekend. The location was close to downtown Newport where our events were. The room wasn't ready when we came in at 4:30pm. We were able to leave and come back. The beds and bathroom were clean, but as other people have said, the floor was not swept or washed. There were remnants of pizza on the ground. The walls were thin, but I had brought a white noise machine. We heard someone's music playing till the early hours.
- Bruce (2/5): We checked in but didn’t stay it was so bad. - It’s in Newport. Dirty and smelly.
- Vincent (5/5): -
- Anatoliy (1/5): -
- Siqueira (8/5): -
- Catherine (2/5): - My boyfriend and i think this place is a sex hostel. Comfortable room and nice reno. However, i had stayed at hotel previously and had no issues. Wanted a cheap hotel. But this visit was hell. Walked in and some random guy was sitting in the only 1 of 2 chairs. I had my bag and i couldnt sit in tje other one because he had trash in the other one. When told the staff, he rolled his eyes. Then i came an hour early and they stated no. I went to walmart and came back at 315 for 330 checkin an
- Eileen (1/5): The place was depressing and unsafe. - Nothing The place was dismal! My jewelry- a precious pearl necklace and a pearl and gold bracelet were stolen from my luggage while I was out. I went out for a while, later when getting dressed for an elegant affair, my jewelry was gone! It was atrocious! I will never step foot in another Motel 6.
- kevin (2/5): - Go any place else
- Amelia (1/5): - Really bad smell in room. Couldn't stay there. Many broken fixtures.
- Bernadette (4/5): - -Inside the room was clean. Bed was great.
-Outside the room a bit dirty( hall rugs, air vents)
-Faucet in bathroom sink sprayed water all over the sink area.
-soap a little too small.
-Coffee bar only had powdered milk, instead of small individual creamers.
- Agnes (2/5): - Everything is TERRIBLE
- geoffmQ7056ZJ (2/5): Total Scam! - I booked one night Using AAA, When I arrived at check in time the very rude receptionist told me they don't take reservations from AAA. Now I am stranded and she refused to reimburse the charges on my Credit card. She said AAA would have to reimburse me. AAA tried contacting Motel 6 several times with out any luck. I am still disputing the charges. This is a very shady operation and on arrival seeing the condition of the place and the shady looking people living there maybe it was a blessing to not have a room. do yourself a favor and do not book this motel.
- Michelle (10/5): - Nice place to stay!
- Edward (2/5): - Smelled like cat pee. Nasty, dirty, sketchy
- thomas (5/5): I miss county Jail - Check Out The smell
- Christina (10/5): -
- John (4/5): - Plumbing issues, room not ready, some inattentive staff
- angela (6/5): Over all for the price it was decent. Some e could clean up trash around premises. People were very kind - The location is great Back door kept getting propped open at night . Felt a little insecure. Bathroom smelled like urine
- McVay (5/5): Overall it was a pleasant stay would do again. - convenient location no elevator
- Paul (4/5): - Very skeevy. I walked into my "non-smoking room" and it reeked of old cigarettes, the bathroom worse than the bedroom.
The plates to the electrical outlets were smashed and puckered and the hair blower (did not try) had the electronic circuitry at the base of the plug exposed. Appeared frankly dangerous.
Soap and shampoo was of the lowest quality but shower, bed and towels were fine.
TV worked well and over-sized.
Staff-minimal interaction, but again fine.
Would avoid in the future.
- Maria (10/5): - Check in was quick and easy. Great for a one night stay. Although sleeping wasn't easy, very noisy plus barking dogs..No coffee in the room.
- George (4/5): - Staff not helpful. Your room does not get cleaned until after you leave. You are not informed of this until you return in the evening and find your room uncleaned. When question about this regulation, I was told that it was because the visitors complained about the rooms being cleaned.
- Tucker (4/5): - Great location, just really dirty. Paid $400 for my friends and I to stay there for 1 night. Place was so dirty I didn’t even want to put my clothes on the ground. It was the closest one to the concert we went to, wouldn’t recommend unless under the same circumstance.
- Sandra (2/5): - You should take this property off your list it is a dump . No hot water no pressure toilet over flowed . When I went to report the problem they were rude didn't even say they would move us or say they were sorry . They seemed upset with us I use Expedia all the time never have I had anything like this.
- Nicholas (1/5): Bad - N/A Didn’t get to stay there didn’t have our reservations
- Norman (1/5): - We chose not to stay at this motel. There was no official staff at the front desk on our arrival (admittedly before check in time). The person looking after the area allowed me to use the staff toilet. The toilet was messy, untidy and soap scum and filth everywhere. A large unkempt male was hanging around the reception area and was still there on our return two hours later. We waited 15 before a staff member turned up at the desk. She addressed a customer who was returning his key because he didn't want to stay The receptionist was rude and unpleasant to him. She refused to allow me to check the room prior to swiping my credit card. we viewed the room which was old and badly in need of refurbishing. The hallways smelled and the hand rails on the steps were sticky. We decided to leave. Fortunately we received a full refund several days later, the only good thing about this business.
- Rostislav (4/5): - Sheets were dirty, didn’t clean room next day
- Vijay (8/5): - Good value.
- Osborn (2/5): This was terrible. Don’t waste your money on it. - We liked the easy on/off from the freeway. The staff was rude. The room needed several repairs. No towels in room. Bed was not comfortable. Only 2 sad pillows on each bed. Breakfast food was stale.
- Diane (6/5): Not worth the price at that location - Too pricey for what you get. Toilet seat needs fastening. Shower curtain rods needs repaired.
- Laura (3/5): -
- Mapi (1/5): No volvería - Nada Había telas de araña, humedad, olía a tabaco, el pestillo de la puerta estaba roto, y se notaba que no se acababa de romper, que hay dejadez en ese hotel. No me atreví a usar la toalla, la ducha no paraba de gotear, había quemaduras además de ser de plástico. El jabón que te dan es de risa ( un sobre pequeño) horrible experiencia
- Osudar (8/5): -
- Stacey (10/5): - Got to speak with different workers
Very helpful and friendly. Manager is a very hard worker and makes my day.
- Peter (2/5): - They didn’t have a room for us after we booked
- DAVID (1/5): -
- Betty (1/5): No one even offered a discount for the inconvenience and showed no concern - Location We were given a room that someone else occupied we walked in on someone in the room!
- Liane (10/5): - Easy check in and check out
