Motel 6-Atlanta GA - Downtown, Atlanta

OK, first off, you need to know a few things. One: they say free parking but they lie. There's a parking fee just to park in their parking lot in front of your room. Second, the deposit. So they hit you up (after you have already paid by the way) for a 150 dollar deposit. I offered to pay in cash and they said 'no, it has to be on the credit card. And it will take 7-10 days for reimbursement'. So what would have been a sweet deal at 70 dollars a night actually doubles (then add the parking fee). The room: TV turned off exactly every hour on the hour. The 'blankets' on the bed were no more than 2 light sheets and a very thin top cover. The microwave was tiny (could barely fit a slice of pizza), and the fridge was not even cold, but at least we had one. Reading some old reviews didn't even have a fridge or microwave. The housekeeping barged in because there were no 'Do not Disturb' signs available apparently and when we called front desk there was no answer. When we went down we had to wait 5-10 minutes each time and the staff was very rude. Finally, after check out, we placed a review and called the corporate line after finding out that a lot of people have not gotten their deposits back. They call the hotel and low and behold we are told we are not getting our deposit back because we smelled like smoke. So if you smoke outside then walk inside, you will lose your deposit and they will say you smoked in their room. Never again will I stay at this hotel.

Liked: Cheap Lyft to venue.
Disliked: Everything. Straight up.

Liked: Clean room; free parking.
Disliked: No grass area for a dog to use the bathroom.

Liked: People were friendly and helpful. No complaints.

For $80 I was mindblown. Everything looked brand new - amazing flat screen, really cool lights above bed, and everything had a nice light blue color that made the room look very hip. Amazing staff as well - even the room cleaners started conversations and wished us a nice day.

Liked: Ben at the front desk was awesome - remembered my name later that day as well. Extremely generous staff; cool, hip rooms; full balcony; very clean; right in the middle of everything.
Disliked: None.

Liked: One of the best Motel 6"s that I have stayed in... very nice staff, very clean room and the balcony access was a real bonus. The parking was supposed to be free (according to their web info) but they charged me for parking. Except for this extra charge the stay was okay for a downtown Atlanta motel/hotel.
Disliked: CHARGED FOR PARKING
