The Spotlight on Motel 6 Albuquerque NM - South - Airport

Budget Stays Near the Beat of Albuquerque

Modern, no-frills, and super convenient, Motel 6 Albuquerque NM - South - Airport is a budget-friendly option just minutes from downtown music venues and the Albuquerque International Sunport. With clean, air-conditioned rooms, free parking, and a seasonal outdoor pool, this 2-star stay offers comfort without the fuss—perfect for travelers who care more about the show than the fluff.

Why Concert-goers love it

Music fans appreciate the hotel’s proximity to University Stadium (just a 16-minute walk) and other popular venues like the National Hispanic Cultural Center (1.2 miles). It’s also less than 3 miles to the airport, which makes late-night arrivals and departures stress-free. The 24-hour front desk is a plus for checking in after a gig, and the rooms are comfortably quiet despite the central location—ideal for post-concert wind-downs.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking for an affordable base near the action
- Solo travelers chasing their favorite artist on tour
- Couples planning a weekend of shows and city exploring
- Fans after a low-key recovery space post-concert
- Budget-conscious music lovers wanting value without sacrificing location

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn’t have on-site dining, there are plenty of fast-food spots and diners within walking or driving distance. Grab a bite before the show or hit up nearby 24-hour eateries afterward. There’s no breakfast served on-site, but guests often head to local cafés or chains just a few blocks away.

Nightlife Options

The hotel itself is quiet and laid-back, but it’s a quick drive or ride-share to Albuquerque’s downtown nightlife, where you’ll find bars, lounges, and live music joints. Whether you want a craft cocktail or a dive bar with local bands, it’s all within 10 minutes.

What People Say

Reviewers love the location near venues and the airport, as well as the cleanliness of the rooms and the friendliness of the staff. Many say it’s a smart choice for a quick stay before or after an event. The free parking and WiFi are also big wins for guests on a budget.

Areas for Improvement

Don’t expect luxury here—it’s a Motel 6, after all. Some guests mention that the rooms are basic and a bit dated, and the lack of in-room coffee makers or mini-fridges can be a downside. But if you're mostly here to sleep and shower between concerts, it does the job just fine.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want a simple, affordable stay near Albuquerque’s top music venues, Motel 6 Albuquerque NM - South - Airport hits all the right notes.

Disappointing

Liked: I the location
Disliked: Everything was fine untill the last day at this Motel. I stayed there for about 4 years continuously non-stop. Service was good. Staff was pleasant and helpful. But at the last day, staff members conspire to have all my property stolen. I lost everything I had worked for over 15 years : my vehicle, clothes, shoes, hats, wallets, jewelry, sunglasses, tools and some saving s... everything. Unfortunately no lawyers in Albuquerque or elsewhere are willing to help me with my case. It's a shame

One Inconvenience after Another

Liked: Nothing but the price but there wasn't any motel at the location.
Disliked: I didn't like that I was able to book for this location when the motel doesn't exist anymore. I've been given the run around ever since this happened.

Terrible, this location was unsafe...

Liked: Terrible, we couldn’t even get into the parking lot. Photos of this location are NOT up to date as the business is either undergoing foreclosure or major renovations. Locked gate around the entire property, couldn’t even get into the parking lot and no staff was around to talk to. I tried calling the location and every time got a “busy” signal, tried reaching out via the booking app and no response. Most rooms were boarded up with plywood, trash and broken appliances littered the outside, and the building was covered with spray paint. It appeared vacant and we deemed it unsafe. Had to find another hotel to stay in last minute. We had received a notice through booking that said “some amenities might be unavailable due to COVID-19” and gave information about bringing personal protection equipment, but had NO MENTION of the state of the building. Had I known I would have originally booked a different location. Currently trying to get a refund since we didn’t even enter the property.VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE OUTCOME OF THIS BOOKING AND VERY DISAPPOINTED EITH BOOKING.com FOR NOT HAVING UP TO DATE DETAILS AND PHOTOS!!!

They are no longer in...

Liked: They are no longer in business but I still received 'email confirmation' and I was still charged! I need a refund. Booking.com needs to remove this company from their listing asap! I had to stay at another hotel last minute.
Disliked: They're no longer in business and I only found out when I got there, I had to call other hotels when I got there to find somewhere to stay. I need a refund asap.
