Hotel Motel 6-Mobile, AL (Mobile, USA)

According to many visitors, the relaxed rooms weren't the height of luxury but were usually more than adequately comfy, spacious and clean for a brief stay. Those prioritizing affordability welcomed the low-cost room rates. Plenty of guests felt they got decent value for money.

Guests were keen on this budget hotel's location just off Interstate 10 in the south-western suburbs of Mobile, Alabama because it was surrounded by shopping options and places to eat. Furthermore, drivers found it easy to get to downtown Mobile plus local attractions, Gulf of Mexico beaches, universities, medical centres, industrial areas and the port. The ample free parking was another bonus.

Reviewers often said they were warmly greeted and well looked after by a friendly, obliging and professional team of employees. The simple free continental breakfast featuring hot items also won praise. The free coffee service was also popular.

Several light sleepers called for soundproofing measures to be enhanced because they were sometimes disturbed by nuisance noise from adjacent rooms and corridors. Meanwhile, stale smoky smells and musty odours inconvenienced travellers in certain rooms.

Maintenance standards could have been improved, according to critics in some rooms who faced issues such as aging TVs, blown light bulbs, tired-looking decor, outdated items of furniture, saggy mattresses and cigarette burns. Cleanliness issues reported included stained bedding, sporadic housekeeping visits and insufficiently cleaned carpets and bathrooms. A few guests reported the odd cockroach encounter.

The free Wi-Fi proved popular with many guests. Nevertheless, several critics mentioned that they faced an unreliable signal or underwhelming speeds on the network in some corners of the property.
