Motel 6 Missoula - University offers a basic, budget-friendly room for the night with an excellent location near the University of Montana and easy walk into town. The experience is described as normal for the chain, with a good clean room and friendly, helpful staff, including kind front desk associates. Many note the cheap price and great value, with clean and well-stocked rooms featuring comfy beds. However, some issues are reported. A significant problem for some is a strong cigarette smoke smell in certain rooms, affecting bedding and air conditioning. Other occasional drawbacks include a bit of street noise or freight train sounds at night, a bathroom door that was dirty and wouldn't close, and a tub that holds water. Guests should also note that amenities like soap and toothpaste are not provided. For travelers seeking a bargain-priced room in a very well-connected location with great service, it is a solid choice, though the potential for smoke smell is a noted risk.
Pam at the front desk was AMAZING. That woman works so darn hard to keep the business running smoothly at literally ALL hours of the day. Service was phenomenal.

Adequate, very clean. Far better than most motel 6s. No microwave in rooms, but could cook in one by office. Location good. No breakfast of any kind.
