Motel 6 Frederick MD - Fort Detrick, Frederick

This place is a dump. The maid service is horrible. I stayed there three days, I had no maid service other than when I went out to find her and asked for towels. They never stepped foot in my room. The towels stank, were thin. Mattresses were hard. The room card key demagnitized itself daily, I could smell marijuana smoke coming in from the room next door. Worst of all, there was a drug bust there while I was staying there with the actual SWAT Team raided the hotel looking for a murder suspect. I verified this with the local news. This place is a hole. Oh...and I had to cut the air off at night becuase it was so noisey, I was then woke up by people partying outside the room. STAY THERE AT YOUR OWN RISK

rude staff. Would never stay at that hotel again. Price is not worth putting up with the staff

I have had the opportunity to stay at this hotel on several occasions and always found the rooms clean affordable. Have not delt with the staff other than checking in and out. no problems there. If your looking for a place to stay in Frederick you will not find a better Value.

The Quality Inn was bought out by Motel6 in June. We had a very pleasant stay at Christmas time and were happy to have found a decent hotel near my sister. We found out the hotel had changed hands and figured it would be basically the same. Boy, were we wrong. The new front desk staff was HORRIBLE. They could not get the billing correct- we were overcharged and they acted like it was our fault when we tried to have it corrected. Way too much time was spent on trying to get our bill straightened out. Also, no one could properly answer any of questions we asked. My husband spilled his soda on the bed one night so we called the front desk for some news sheets so we could change the bed. They said they'd call back. An hour later, we called them back. The desk said (pissily, I might add) that someone was bringing us sheets and hung up on my husband while he was mid-sentence. Needless to say, my husband slept on top of a towel and we got fresh sheets from housekeeping the next day. When we made the reservation, we were told they had a pool. The pool was closed (mid July) which is probably a good thing considering the water was dark green and looked like a mosquito breeding ground. On the bright side, the housekeeping staff was very friendly and helpful and gave us whatever towels, tp we asked for. 2 of the ice machines were broken, leaving only 1 usable. It looks like some of the rooms had been renovated but I don't think ours had been done. the carpet was stained and was a different pattern than in some of the nicer looking rooms. Maybe they put us in an older room because we had our dog with us. The pet amenities are great- a big grassy yard with plenty of room to play and sniff around. Actually, the setting is very pretty with nice shade trees and plantings and a pretty gazebo. The rooms were pretty standard for a hotel of this price- nothing special. HBO is free but the channel selection otherwise is not so good. Wi Fi costs $3 for 24 hrs. The hotel is close to several restaurants and there is a convenience store right across the street. we ate at Hard Times Cafe across the street and had great burgers and even shot some pool for free. Also, on saturday afternoon a small farmers market set up in the discount movie theater parking lot right next door. We stayed for 9 days so we had a bit of time to explore. So, if you can deal with a front desk staff with absolutely no customer service skills whatsoever, it's an ok place to stay for a few days.

No hot water for 3 days. The staff moved us to 2 different rooms before they found that the boilers were down. They told us that we should have hot water in a cuple of hours. We neaver did get hot water. The rooms were very damp and dirty looking. The rooms smell really bad and the bath rooms are cruddy. Their were a lot of scary looking mexicans working on repairs to the outside stairs. A lot of sloppy looking hood and mexican regular employees.

The hotel needs a lot of work. When we opened the door to our room the smell was aweful. They sent someone to the room to spray Febreeze. The bathtub had black mildew all around it. There were cigarette burns on the tub as well. The breakfast was a glorified contenental layout for $11.60 per person. The staff was very friendly and did the best with what they have. We will not stay in this hotel again. We can find a better place to spend $99.00 per night.

This hotel has seen better days. While the staff was friendly and helpful, there are other issues one should consider before staying here. I attempted to take a shower at 5:45 a.m. and there was NO hot water. All of the rooms are accessed from the outside, so security could be a concern. The hotel is run down, with concrete chipping all over the common, exterior walkways. The entire hotel is in need of renovation. Internet access is free, but one must obtain a wireless router at the front desk. No where in the literature within the room does it state that. The restaurant does not open for breakfast until 6:30 a.m., which could be too late for some travelers. It's rather pricey also. There are many restaurants, as well as a grocery store and K-Mart just down the road from the hotel.
