Motel 6 Ilion, NY

DO NOT STAY HERE. This is not a real hotel. It’s a run-down shell of a place in a scary part of town. It was totally deserted (one ONE car in the parking lot), had notices from the city in the front door about illegal long term rentals, smelled of cigarettes and pee and appeared to not even be a working hotel. Totally abandoned, not a soul in sight. A hand written cardboard note in the lobby said “close”. Some of the rooms appeared to be where squatters were living. A scary experience. DO NOT GO HERE.

This was the worse motels that we have ever been at. All of the rooms that are shown in their photo were taken so we were assigned room 111 on the back of the building. On entering the room it seemed something was off not only was the air conditioner on but the windows were wide opened without screens.

The biggest negative was the coffee, or lack thereof. One pot had some old coffee in it, and the other had old coffee with mold floating in it. Pretty gross, to be honest. The office also was kind of a mess.

The woman that worked there was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond for us, her customer service is excellent. However, the room was completely unacceptable. We were told that they knocked $30 off of the price for us due to them finding water damage in our room before we checked in and the ceiling was not patched yet. We did not know that meant that raw sewage would be actively leaking into our room. We heard a neighbor flush the toilet and then instantly water was pouring through the ceiling. On top of that, the room smelled rancid when we walked in- we quickly realized that was because there were rotten hamburger patty’s underneath both mattresses. The sheets did not smell clean and the bathroom was dirty. On top of this our toilet was leaking all over the floor. There was
