Hotel was clean. A economical late night stopping point for my drive. Like the location next to gas station and restaurant. Would stay again. They could use more parking area though as I had to get permission to park in the employee parking spot as there was no other place to park.

Being a Motel 6, this place is nice. My daughter’s cat gets her out of seizures and we usually have to pay extra at other places. Of course, with any cheaper place, the ceiling and walls are thin enough to hear walking and toilets. We would stay here again. I just wish I could find this value closer toward the PNW.

This is a great Motel 6 that allows pets to stay for free. Probably one on the cleanest and best maintained motels for the price we have stayed in. Overall, we were very impressed with the room, staff, parking, and price. Definately, if you want a reasonably price great hotel to stay in, this is your hotel. I notice they also have good designated parking if you are towing a trailer that is easy to get in and out.

The room was dirty, the bed looked like it had been slept in, and they literally were roaches running when I turned on the light in the bathroom. I left immediately and demanded a refund. I know that some Motel 6 are clean and well kept this one is simply disgusting and should be renamed roach motel , stay away Unless you like roaches and filth

Very clean, well appointed room. Clean bathroom. Staff was friendly and helpful on the area. Coffee or tea was nice in the morning before leaving. Would be nice if some sort of food were offered. Not a full breakfast but a pastry or microwaveable breakfast sandwich. Not a negative, just a comment. Nicer than I expected from a budget motel!

I’ll start by saying that as a frequent hotel user I am well aware that Motel 6 is a budget hotel. I never expect frills, or breakfast or luxury. With that said, I do expect basic cleanliness and that is NOT what we got. The room smelled stale from the moment we walked in. We quickly noticed dried shoe prints throughout the room and it was clear it was either not washed or done very poorly because there were streaks all over. We took towels across the floor and it came up completely brown. The mirror was disgusting, the toilet appeared clogged at times but would then flush properly after 2 or 3 tries. Just a bad experience and not what I expected after reading the reviews quite thoroughly before booking. It was late and we were exhausted from driving all day so decided we’d just wear shoes around the room since all of our stuff was already laid out and we were only there to sleep, so we did not request another room, but honestly after seeing this room we weren’t really sure what to expect with the next one. I will say, the lady at check in was absolutely lovely..

Hands down, this was the loudest hotel that I've ever stayed in in my entire life. The air conditioner blower was very loud, but I could take that. What I couldn't take was when the upstairs room ran their shower it sounded like a jet engine was going off the entire time. When shower and AC went, I had to cover my head. I actually recorded the noise because I didn't think anyone would believe It was as loud as it was.

I travel for business and when you advertise that you have free WiFi I expect to have a computer connection. After traveling for 10 hrs and needing to finish up on business correspondence I expect to have the amenities you advertise, and I use to make my decision based on my travel needs. The front desk person was very helpful in trying to correct the problem, even calling the owner to resolve the problem. Another 1 1/2 hrs on the road to another hotel is NOT the experience needed. Will remove this hotel from my travel itinerary for future travel stays. 6/17/2024

Overall, it was a pretty good stay. However, when we checked in, we were told that someone who lived in Kearney could not be checked in which we thought was odd. I went to visit my parents and my father was paying for my room. They looked at my drivers license to see that I was out of town, but I thought this was pretty ridiculous. The person you checked us and said it was policy that they would not rent to any locals because of previous damage however is that not why you require a card so you can charge for any damages. This policy seemed pretty bizarre to me.

For my first Motel 6, this was a very easy experience. It must have a bad wrap in my state but it’s a very good place to stay. The staff are very helpful and nice. The rooms are clean and all the amenities work better than expected. They don’t offer breakfast but they have cheap vending machines and free coffee in the morning. A walk away is Casey’s or Nebraska Ale Works for a bite to eat. Multiple other spots to eat at too but those were the closest for me. Fort Kearney museum is also right across the road. My only issues with this hotel are very minor nitpicks. The price is cheaper compared to nearby hotels, but it’s very close in price to hotels that offer more. A couple unwanted guests seem to roam the area too but I felt safe and don’t know enough about Kearney. I would definitely stay here again.

Don’t usually stay at Motel 6, but the reviews for this location were pretty good, so we took a chance. Since we’re on a 4,000 mi road trip we need to keep our costs down. We were not disappointed. While the accommodations were spartan as you wound expect, the room was very clean and there were no funky smells! The desk staff was friendly and professional. Great job!

This is the best hotel I stayed at in Nebraska. It's clean and new, the check in was a breeze and the staff perfectly fulfilling every checkin need. Easy breezy. The room was just right for me traveling solo. There are dining options nearby, including a pub that is just a short walk of 2 parking lots away. Everything a traveler needs for an overnight is readily available at this end of town, and this hotel made me feel like my money was worth the night. They're doing a great job. Even replaced the coffee when they noticed I was having issues. All around great service in a nice new building where everything works well.
