While driving from Boston to San Francisco, I stopped in this little town just north of Iowa City for the night, and was pleasantly surprised by how genuinely nice and helpful the people I met here were. The staff at Motel 6 sort of embodied that good-natured attitude; they couldn't have been more attentive or helpful. When I asked the... More

I had actually booked a hotel through priceline but clicked on a Thursday for the next week. This was a last minute find (it was almost 11 pm and I just wanted a room after a long day of driving). The room smelled like mold. It was clean but I couldn't get over the smell. It did have a fridge... More

Unfortunately, we had to take a room here when we visited during an extremely busy weekend in the Iowa City/Coralville area. This hotel was absolutely TERRIBLE! We travel often and stay in many different hotels and I think that this is one of the worst! Our room was tiny, smelled really bad, was very dirty and was not very secure.... More

We needed a room for one night during graduation weekend and by the time we determined this, this was one of the few hotels available as most required a minimum two night stay. Also, true to form for Iowa City event weekends, prices were jacked sky high everywhere so one night for this hotel was $99, booked through an online... More

My room had decor that looked like it had not been updated since the late 1980s. But the aesthetics of the room were only a minor issue compared to the low quality of the bedding and the noisy location. The pillows were lumpy, mattress felt like there was a bar sticking through the center of it, and the bottom sheet... More

look for a better price elsewhere despite the location. Hope the gas field in the back isn't burning like an enormous propane flame thrower. IT sounded like the space shuttle was launching all morning. Best part of the room was the shower stall, the rest pretty worn out and shabby. Only hotel we stayed at that had a sign outside... More

This motel is in a very convenient location right off of the interstate and next to several fuel stations and restaurants. Check in was a breeze and the clerk was very nice. The room was easy to get to and had a nice fresh smell when I entered. I really liked it because it had lots of light and a... More

This place was one of the cheaper hotels in town bookable on the internet. The bad thing was the rooms, with a VERY CHEAP FEEL to them. Parking was difficult due to the snow piles. There were a number of shady characters that were hanging out in the parking lot and talking loudly, despite the cold temperatures the night we... More

It is what it is. Cheap room. Stiff bed, small tv, no clock or alarm. But, what do you expect anymore for 40 bucks. The location is great and so I would recommend it to any one just looking for a room for the night.
