The hype
Travelers appreciate the updated 'wood' floors and friendly staff, but almost everyone complains about the noise.
Motel 6 Rochester Mn

لماذا يحبها الناس
- Free shuttle to Mayo Clinic (Mon-Fri)
- Pets stay free (no hidden fees)
- Recently renovated rooms have wood-effect floors (cleaner than carpet)
نظرة سريعة: A functional highway-side motel that trades sleep quality for rock-bottom rates and a free ride to the hospital.
تمت المراجعة بواسطة @Pbc968: I grabbed this room because I needed something cheap near the Mayo Clinic. It's definitely no-frills, but my room was surprisingly clean and having a Pizza Hut right across the street was super convenient for a late dinner.

Reality check
The 'pool' is often closed or underwhelming, and the 'non-smoking' rooms can sometimes smell faintly of smoke.
- You are traveling with pets on a budget
- You have a 7am appointment at Mayo and just need a bed
- You prefer hard floors over questionable hotel carpets
النظافة والصيانة
5.5
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Some days it's fine, other days floors are gritty. Daily service is not guaranteed unless requested.
- Bathroom hygiene: Renovated bathrooms with granite counters are decent, but grout lines in showers can be stained.
- Maintenance: Renovated rooms are okay, but expect peeling paint or loose fixtures in older units.
- Linens & towels: Thin, well-worn towels. Sheets are usually clean but check for hairs.
- Odors & scents: Non-smoking rooms can have a lingering 'masked' smoke smell or strong chemical cleaner scent.

الأسئلة الشائعة والنصائح المخفية
كل ما تحتاج حقًا معرفته قبل الحجز
Is there breakfast?
No. There is free coffee in the lobby in the morning, but no food.
Is the pool open?
Technically yes, it's a seasonal outdoor pool, but reviews often cite it being closed for maintenance or dirty. Don't book solely for the swim.
How close is the Mayo Clinic?
About a 5-10 minute drive (2 miles). The free shuttle is a major perk.
Are pets really free?
Yes. Motel 6 is one of the few chains with a truly free pet policy (limit 2 pets).
Is it walkable to restaurants?
No. You are on a Frontage Road. Crossing the highway/ramps on foot is dangerous. You need a car.
Is there a fridge in the room?
Most renovated rooms have a mini-fridge and microwave, but verify this specifically when booking as some basic rooms do not.

The 'wood' floors are actually vinyl, which is great because it doesn't trap bed bugs like carpet does.

There is a coin laundry on-site if you're on a long haul.
- ✨
Ask for a room receipt at check-in; some guests report billing confusion with third-party bookings.
5 أشياء يجب معرفتها قبل الذهاب
💡The 'stand-up showers' in renovated rooms are tiny—elbow-bangingly small.
💡The towels are often small and scratchy; bring your own if you care about fluffiness.
💡The vending machines are your only on-site food source after dark.
💡Local pizza delivery drivers sometimes struggle to find the specific building entrance.
💡The heater/AC units are older wall-bangers that will cycle on and off loudly all night.
