Founded in 1962, Motel 6 is synonymous with a great travel value. The first Motel 6 still leaves the light on today, but a lot has changed for the motel chain that pioneered the first real economy motel designed for the no-frills traveler. The original price of a night's stay at Motel 6 was just $6.00, and thus established the brand name for an American classic.
The brand continues to grow and currently has over 1,100 locations with over 100,000 rooms in the United States and Canada.
