a mildew smell overwhelmed me when I enter my room. I could not tell if the sheets on one of the bed have been changed... a constant loud noise was coming from a AC unit even when I turned it off... oh yes! and no remote control for the old TV. Horrible fluorescent lights. Those rooms have not been remodeled... More

While it does look a little shady around the building the inside is just fine. I wouldn't say the room was overly clean when we got there, but it suited our needs. Each of the 3 nights we were there, we had an AMAZING cleaning lady, who not only cleaned the room, but straighted up all our crap! And we... More

We wanted a cheap alternative to paying $400 a night in Newport....we got it. The rooms reeked of mildew (at least I hope it was mildew). The carpets felt damp. There were many drunk people....screaming , yelling, slamming doors. A fist fight broke out in front of our room and the police came and cleared out 3 rooms. No sleep...and... More

Its about $60/nt for a double bed room with wifi. So whats the difference between Motel 6 and other hotels in Newport? There is No Fridge, No Microwave, No closet,... More

We stayed here last year for one night, and this year we stayed here for 2 nights, one week apart, in different rooms. We routinely stay here for one night after driving up from where we live and before we check in to our regular place. I remember last year being pleasantly surprised - stunned - that we were able...

We decided to do a last minute trip to Newport with our 2 babies, and since we were only going for 1 night, we didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars for a place to stay. I went on a mission to find the least expensive place to stay that was still pretty close to town, and Motel 6 it... More

Really the only affordable place in Newport, it is located across from a porn shop and adjacent to a Walmart. Our first room smelled absolutely horrible and we immediately requested to be moved. To her credit, the front desk person was extremely nice and helpful so no issues w/ service. The room was outdated and cheap and did not feel... More

Smells of urine, feces and cigarettes, across the street from porno shop As soon as I walked in the door the combined smell of urine, feces, and cigarettes overwhelmed me to the point I could not breathe. After being in the hotel for a few hours I drove to another hotel and got a room there and moved family and... More

It was worth the price we paid and more. It is absolutely no frills but it is clean and the service was good. If you are going to stay in the area to visit the mansions and are out almost all day and then dinner out, this is the place to come home to and go to sleep.
