Friendly staff, clean room, fair prices (especially these days).  Good stop for our drive through.  Lately all of those qualities are quite challenging to come by, so it was a very pleasant surprise to stay somewhere that satisfied those expectations.

Friendly, clean, good price, easy access on our drive

Way overpriced considering the rundown property and lack of amenities. I’m not against budget motels but this was terrible. After this experience I will NEVER stay at a Motel 6 again. Just awful. Proceed with caution.

Never again

Stayed at the Motel 6 in Niantic for a getaway weekend with our furry friend.  Location is convenient right off I95.  Its a budget hotel so no refrigerator, no breakfast and no daily housekeeping was not a deal breaker.  Our room was on the small side and the water pressure was low but the cleanliness and maintenance was really good with a pristine paint job.  Also Motel 6 allows pets with no additional fee so that's a big plus.  All in all, we can't complain and would recommend with the caveat that you know what to expect at a Motel 6 - low cost and minimal amenities but a decent room.

OK For A Budget Stay With Our Furry Friend

This is a decent stay for the price and I love that it’s pet friendly. I stayed for awhile and it was safe and clean.

The good
- [ ] front desk: Janky, Susan, Adrianna are all wonderful . 
- [ ] Brenda and rest of housekeeping are great!
- [ ] Safe area at reasonable price. 
- [ ] dogs allowed, decent space (I recommend going downtown to park or beach in Niantic)

The Bad
- [ ] Manager on a power trip, condescending. He definitely enjoys telling people no. He often seemed like he really had no idea what was going on in his own motel. Treated me like I was a subordinate instead of a paying guest. 
- [ ] Weird things like toilet paper rationed out one or two at a time, you have to go to desk to get it along with towels, flimsy garbage bags that you need to bring to the dumpster yourself. 
- [ ] No toilet lid… wtf? That’s just strange. 
- [ ] two rooms I stayed in worse for wear, brown spots rust ick, one had mold all over door when I got there. 
- [ ] while I was there my heat broke, my door broke, my microwave broke, there were hot water problems as well. The hotel key cards malfunctioned often so I’d be locked out of my room quite often. 
- [ ] Other people don’t pick up dog poop 💩 in dog area and there are no bags in the spot for them. I use my own but maybe people would pick it up if bags were there? Maybe not. 
- [ ] Smokers allowed to smoke next to rooms, smell came into room.

The weird: 
So what’s up with that guys in the red truck who marks his parking spot with caution cones?

Safe and Clean

Room was clean upon arrival.  Bare minimum in rooms...just enough towels for each person in room and 2 snall soap bars....no shampoo or any extras.  Spartan but spacious.  No carpets...had wood" floors which were nice.   Staff was helpful and friendly.  Only complaint is that the non-smoking room still had smoky/musty smell all week....could not get rid of it...think the AC was just bringing in the smoke smell from folks smoking outside the room.  The stench was disappointing...would be nice to be able to have screens on the one window in the room to be able to open and circulate some air.

Clean but smoky/musty smell all week

Excellent location in the center of all stores, eateries, and highways!   The front desk is 24/7 and the staff are very pleasant and helpful.  Rooms are spacious and incredibly clean.   I felt very very safe and never heard a noise of any kind during my stay.  Couldn't expect more staying anywhere else.  I  will be returning for a weeks stay soon.  Thank You Motel 6 Staff!

Very Pleasant Stay

Checked in for a night as visiting family in the area.  This location is extremely sanitized - makes you feel safe except you need to leave the door open a few minutes as the Clorox is a bit strong (I am finding many motels like this these days). Great rate at this time of year - beds are a bit below my home model but for the price/location/cleanliness a good value.  Pleasant helpful staff - walking distance to Starbucks. 

Clean Safe Good Value

This is the best of the local Motel 6 hotels in the New London CT area. The rooms are large & very clean. The surrounding grounds are grassy & expansive so it’s fantastic for people with dogs. The staff are pleasant, helpful & efficient. There is an ice machines, 2 drink & 1 vending machine off the lobby. The hotel wasn’t overly crowded & the other guests were very respectful, quiet & clean. 
(I have stayed at other area pet friendly hotels the past few years but they have been overrun recently by loud, obnoxious, disrespectful & ill behaved customers. There’s drug use & all night partying. That got extremely old very quickly). 

I moved to the Motel 6 Niantic & I am extremely happy I did. I will definitely stay here anytime I am in the area & I will recommend it’s to others. DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED! 

Large Clean Rooms. Expansive surrounding grounds! 

The staff is very kind and professional.  I've stayed here at least 30 times.  I've never had a problem.  Susan and Wanda at the front desk are very sweet.  They're managers are very professional and are willing to help out when they can.  Rooms are always clean.  Close to highway and many attractions in the area. I highly suggest this location.

Great motel

A gem of a place.  Very clean and cheerful.  Everyone was friendly and accomodating.  Susan at the desk was one of THE BEST desk agents I have ever met in all my travels throughout the world.  Kind gracious efficient. She was one of those people who do more than expected.  She was also someone who anticipates a guests needs.  At top tier hotels this is rare, so it was amazing to find this at a motel!!  Highly reccomend this motel.
