Tracy was very helpful in helping me with a complicated reservation for my son. I am grateful for her knowledge in a complex request for this reservation. 
My son says the room was perfect and nicely furnished and sparkling clean!

Excellent help with check in at this Motel 6 in Elko NV

After reading the negatives reviews we were a bit hesitant to stay here.  With no expectations we stayed 2 nights in July on way to Wyoming and 1 night in August on way home.  On both stays the rooms were spotless and all the staff went out of their way to be friendly, kind and helpful.  We would definitely book again and the price is unbeatable!

Excellent Experience 

I had a sinking feeling in my stomach as I drove into the parking lot.  This hotel is old and tired.  But I was delighted when I opened the door to my room.  It was spotless and the beds were comfortable.  Perhaps there's been a recent renovation of the rooms?  The bathroom was nothing to rave about, but it was clean.  I paid $50 for the room, so my expectations weren't high.  Overall, I was happy and I slept well.

Looks pretty tired on the outside, but my room was nice

I road trip a lot with my dog so have stayed at many Motel 6s around the country.  Some are quite nice, some are not so great.  This one is in the not so great category.   The outside of the motel is rundown and looks seedy...looks like the type of place crimes are committed.  It was only missing police tape across a hotel door to complete the look.   The inside of my room stunk of overly perfumey air freshener, it seemed dirty even if it was just cleaned.  The shower looked filthy (I didnt even end up taking one because of it) and the walls in the room had dirt on them.  I checked the sheets, seemed clean, I went to bed and was up at 4am to leave again.  The guest wifi did not work either.  I could not wait to leave this place.  The only reason I gave it 2 stars was because the guy at the front desk was so nice.  This Motel 6 is off of Interstate 80 which I travel on a lot across country.  Surprisingly I had never stayed at this Motel 6 before and never will again.  Like I said, I could not wait to leave.

Not the best Motel 6

Ok, so we stay at Motel 6 when we travel because they allow pets. Other nicer hotels in Elko are cheaper but then we have a pet.

Twice we have stayed here and the Wi-Fi doesn't work. Wife heard the new owner (it is now a franchise) tell a lady that they have recently had trouble with their provider. That is not true - it hasn't worked in the last year - so if you advertise Wi-Fi then get Wi-Fi. Pay for something reliable. Quit lying.

So there aren't that many people staying at the hotel but they pack everybody into one area instead of spreading paople out. We were given a downstairs room and they gave the room above us to a 400 pound gorilla in army boots. Ok, I am exaggerating - he was probably closer to 500 pounds actually. He paced from one side of his room to the other all night long in his boots. Office says "He will probably go to bed soon". Thanks a bunch. No internet and no sleep.

So in the room the beds were made and the bathroom was clean. We found the previous people's stuff in the fridge so we took it out and put our stuff in (yes we put it back in before we left). 

So in case it isn't perfectly clear yet, I do not recommend this Motel 6. We just want a clean room to sleep comfortably like other Motel 6 hotels AND WANT THE WI-FI TO WORK! It happens in Grand Junction, it happens in Wendover, but it does not happen in Elko. Next time the dog sleeps in the car and we sleep in comfort anywhere but Motel 6. Sorry Fido...

They are remodeling but it will still suck...

Not sure what is going on with the Motel 6's in northern Nevada but there was no A/C in Winnemeca & now at the Elko Motel 6 there is no heat.
I book Motel 6 online as that is usually the best price.
I booked this location, Elko, and received a confirmation which I kept on my phone (fortunately).
When I arrive to check-in here the reception said it was something like $50. I showed them the recept on my phone which was $32.57. The receptionist said that was for the 7 day rate but I showed here on the confirmation that it was for 1 night only.  I then told her I wanted to call Motel 6 corporate customer service because of the discrepancy but she then said she would honor the online rate.
So be careful; not sure if it is just at this location as I stay at a lot of Motel 6's & never had an issue with price when booking online.
Last night it was very cold in Elko due to a cold front & there was no heat. Fortunately I carry an electric hot plate so used that for heat.
The room was clean with a small outdated TV.  Certainly not worth $50+ as this place has not had renovacations as other Motel 6's.

No heat during a cold front this week!

Stayed here on the 24th and 25th of January 2024. They charged us $100 deposit. We went into the room and it smelt like stale old cigarettes. There is a no smoking policy at this Motel. The bed sheet was stained with blood. And the mattress cover was stained with what appeared to be urine and fecal stains. The mattress cover smelled very bad, like body fluids. And we had to argue for quite some time to get the bedding changed since it was not to sanitary standards to sleep on. This room is an ADA room. They absorbed our deposit because they claimed we stained a hand towel. The hand towel was used to dry our freshly washed hands. None of the towels were stained that we left behind.

Poorly managed motel

Do NOT stay here. I got there, there was water leaking from the refrigerator,  towel rack was broken , room smelled like urine, one of the locks on the door was broken. A few days after I checked out I noticed they didn't refund me my $100 deposit, even though the room was left clean. They said on the phone when I called (though NEVER told me when I was actually there) that they charge $25 per use of each towel. What the heck? I called corporate and they said they do NOT charge for towels. I called the front desk and the lady I spoke to was really rude and said they did. So I disputed the charge. Luckily my bank sided with me, but I will NEVER stay at this dump again.

Stay FAR away from here!

We left before even unlocking our door!! Got our deposit back but lost our hotel fee. This place posted quiet hours after 7:00 pm and No Smoking. We arrived after 8 and people (apparently "residents") were hanging outside their rooms, both upstairs and downstairs, drinking and smoking. We asked to move our room because it was in the back in a dark area. Before we even unlocked our door to an upstairs room, there were uncomfortable characters lurking around our door. Didn't feel safe.

Motel 6 Elko, NV - didn't feel safe

The story begins on my east bound side of the trip. I called the hotel to check out a detail and the clerk who answered made it sound like a dive. Said the maids didn’t show up book at your own risk…
I skipped but after 2 other M6 stays on the way out and 3 heading back west I decided to gamble…
I requested a first floor room I have 2 small dogs that don’t like stairs. One is a tripod. They gave me a second floor room in the most in accessible corner of the building overlooking a pool being sand blasted. The (guests?) in front looked like homeless, there was a sign on the door quiet time 7pm to 7am…
No one was at the desk, I tried calling out no one there. So I left. Got 3/4 the way to the car and a woman comes up the sidewalk won’t let me leave. Goes in and apparently I was the only reservation of the day. She called me by name.
My card was charged $64.00 at check in. After seeing the guy sandblasting I decided I’d eat the loss and find another place down the street.
This morning I got up and found my card had been charged a second time during night audit, this time for $100.00 I tried contacting hotel and motel 6 I couldn’t get anyone anywhere. Not even their automated customer care thing worked. This was the LAST time I ever try motel 6. The downside risk is just to much. They don’t have any quality control any longer.
