The Spotlight on Motel 6-Tacoma WA - Fife

Simple, Budget-Friendly Stay Close to Tacoma Dome

Modern convenience meets wallet-friendly pricing at Motel 6-Tacoma WA - Fife. Located just off I-5 in downtown Fife, this no-frills hotel is ideal for travelers who want quick access to Tacoma’s top music venues without breaking the bank. With pet-friendly rooms, extended cable TV, and an outdoor pool, it’s a solid base for concert nights and laid-back mornings.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is just 4.6 miles from the Tacoma Dome and under 3 miles from the Emerald Queen Casino, making it a convenient choice for catching a show. Its location right off I-5 makes it easy to get in and out post-concert, and there's free parking—a big plus for drivers. While it’s not a luxury hotel, the quiet setting and simple rooms offer a restful space after a loud night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Couples looking for a laid-back weekend with music and local flavor
  • Fans needing a quiet place to recharge after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who'd rather spend on tickets than lodging

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, you’ll find several fast food and casual dining spots within walking or short driving distance. Late-night bites are easy to grab nearby, and most rooms come equipped with mini-fridges for storing snacks. No breakfast is served on-site, so plan to fuel up at one of the nearby diners after a late night.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself doesn’t offer nightlife or a bar, it’s just a quick drive to nearby casinos, lounges, and bars in Tacoma. You'll find everything from live music venues to laid-back taprooms just minutes away, making it easy to keep the night going after the show.

What People Say

Guests appreciate the affordable rates, easy freeway access, and pet-friendly policy. Many say it’s a solid pick if you just need a clean, simple place to sleep after an event. The pool is a bonus in warmer months, and the parking is free and plentiful.

Areas for Improvement

The motel’s minimalist vibe means no frills—don’t expect fancy décor or extra amenities. Some reviews mention the occasional noise from the nearby freeway, and the lack of breakfast or coffee service might be a downside for early risers.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for an affordable, no-nonsense stay near Tacoma’s music venues, Motel 6-Tacoma WA - Fife hits the right note.

Passable

Liked: It was close to the Tacoma Dome which was the primary reason for our visit.
Disliked: No fridge or microwave. Also, there was a shooting in the parking lot of our hotel our first night there. We were woken up in the morning at 645am by police asking if we saw or heard anything suspicious. It appears this motel has many long term residents.

Not worth the money

Liked: Nothing really to like, the beds were old and uncomfortable, the rooms were right out of the 1970's with no updates since then.
Disliked: The broken T.V. the gaps between the door and the outside, the uncomfortable bed the dirty sheets, I could go on but you get the idea

Liked: I liked the location
Disliked: I didn't like the Hispanic Lady that worked the front desk in the morning. She almost made me.not stay there. Had the price not been such a better deal then everywhere else I definitely would've chosen to stay somewhere else.
