Productive and Fun job.
Housekeeper (Former Employee), Fresno, CA –
It is a nice place to work. The Co-workers are really nice. The enjoyable part of being a housekeeper is you can get tips if the customer liked how their room was cleaned. The hardest part would be going up and down stairs.

front desk / house keeper (Former Employee), Minonk, IL –
Pros: meals was free
Cons: only got one break it was half hour
Getting everything ready in its place to open the store and begin serveing happy customers, I learned you can always make someones day,management was the hardest part because you had to think for not only yourself but for everyone around you, I enjoyed that because it gave you a new challage everyday, If i didnt have enough co workers I had to try to – more...  call some in , sometimes that was difficult, i told my boss it was easier to cut people for labor being high then to try to call them in, the most enjoyable part of my job was the hours going in at 330 am and getting off at 1pm and still haveing the rest of your afternoon to do whatever u wanted to do .. – less

a great and fun place to work
Housekeeping (Former Employee), Anderson, IN –
Pros: working the hours that i did
A typical day at Motel 6 was cleaning the rooms that had been occupied, sometimes I would have 5 rooms to clean other days it could be more or less. I learned how to do a great job cleaning the rooms and what I was expected of on housekeeper jobs. I realled enjoyed working with the management there. The hardest part of my job was after I started working – more...  there was having to get use to bending over all the time to move the beds in order to change the sheets, but I did get use to it after a few weeks. The most enjoyable part of my job was the people I worked with and my hours. – less

Pros: flexible, you pick your lunch break
Cons: no overtime
A typical workday at Motel 6 consists of attending costumers (walk-ins and reservations) you must also keep the lobby and your work area neat and clean. The management and staff are all in-sink working together at Motel 6 is key to getting things done. The most enjoyable part of this is the satisfaction you've done a good job by selling out all the – more...  rooms. – less

lots of interesting people to meet
Desk Clerk (Former Employee), Lafayette, IN –
During a typical day I would clean the office, help out with folding laundry if needed, pick up trash in the parking lot, make coffee, but my main focus was taking care of customers; checking them in and out, making sure that thier room is in good condition and they have every thing they need.

The computer system was not hard to learn and neither was – more...  the paperwork. The job was not physicaly demanding. – less
