Average overnight crash place
If you're looking for a place to just lay down and crash without really taking advantage of any room amenitites, this is a fine place. We determined that if it was just abuddy and I going to a game the next day it would work.. However, for a family of for, not a chance.

Beware of Football Weekend Prices for substandard.
Naturally a Motel 6 room is just that, basic, however on football weekends the price jumps 100%. If you are not picky and do not mind paper thin walls, thinner bed covers, hard mattresses, scratchy towels and absolutely NO service (my bed was missing the thin blanket under the even thinner bed cover and they were unable to provide one, without apology); go for it. Srictly a place to shower and sleep BUT, if you MUST stay here, ask for a room away from other guests as we were awakened several times during the night by people standing outside our door smoking or hanging out on the sidewalk. It sounds as if they are in your room due to the lovely quality of the 60 year old windows. Perhaps you should keep looking at other options.

Just need a night.
First impression was - no carpet on the floor - how strange. Made the room less comfortable and cave like. Desk staff very friendly, polite and helpful.

I wasn't sure what Iw as going to get with Motel 6. We stayed here a few years ago and it was definitely in need of an update. The rooms are now modernized and upgraded with flat panel TVs. For the price and the location in relation to the Big House and downtown Ann Arbor, this place can't be beat. This is definitely a step up from no-frills, but if you're not spending too much time in the room, its not a big deal. The staff was extremely friendly and the area felt safe. Would definitely stay here again!

Long walk from hotel
Long walk from Michigan Stadium but better off making the long trek back to the hotel after the game as it was quicker then waiting in traffic to get back to the highway

Furnished like a minimum security prison
This was the only hotel in the area with rooms left when I booked - I now know why. If you want spartan at a non-spartan price, this is your place. I would have thought it a poor value at $50/night, but at $90 it was highway robbery. You don't know how much you miss the normal amenities in most hotel rooms until you don't have them. Easy chair or couch: no; only chair a "50's" looking hard wooden one at the desk. Clock radio: no; no clock at all. Shampoo in the bathroom: no; hairdryer:no; carpeting:no; linoluem throughout; free wifi:no; in-room coffee maker:no. Only ammenity besides the bed was a TV that worked. And the room was clean.

Fair for the price
Did not like the linoleum flooring, would rather carpet. Bring your own alarm clock if you don't like wake up calls because they don't have any in the rooms. Location is good, only a few minute drive from downtown and the Big House. Very select amount of channels. Would not recomment this for children.

Convenient for a football weekend in Ann Arbor.
Clean room with helpful, cheerful office staff. Seemed a bit cramped and uncomfortable in the small shower/bathroom, because the toilet bowl had no lid (just a ring), and there was nowhere to set a change of clothes. Disappointed that the WiFi was not free, but you cannot have everything.
