Motel 6 Toronto East - Whitby

Good : near restaurants, clean room Negative: bed not very comfortable, humid, no fridge. Ok for 1 night only

Motel 6 Whitby is a masterclass in the art of cutting every corner to save a buck. Staff can barely do anything without manager approval, and the manager is rude. She interrupted me saying "No, no no no no no no no no…" while I was trying to describe an issue to her. Rooms are dirty—dust under the beds, grime on the towel racks and stuck to corners of the room, holes in window screens. Hallways and elevator are smelly. The water just barely gets warm, but not not enough for a satisfying shower. Mattresses suck and transfer every movement your partner makes, making it difficult to sleep. Front desk staff gave us 15 minutes after check in to let them know about issues with the rooms. We were traveling with our kids, and all of us were extremely tired by the time we arrived. We didn't notice a lot of the issues until the next day, so I guess we're out of luck then? I was expecting a cheap motel, I've stayed in cheap accommodations before that were absolutely fine. Nothing special, but fine to spend a few nights. That's all I was expecting from Motel 6 in Whitby, and they failed to meet even that extremely low bar.

The room was very clean, we had no complaints there. We could not get the temperature regulated, it was warm! The hallways smell tho,,,they need to rip the carpet out, first floor has a distinct pee smell!
