Motel 6 is budget lodging. They have few amenities. This one is located on thr edge of town, quite a distance from anything except the freeway.

Went on a Wednesday night had workers working until 11:30 at night outside my window with the smell of burnt rubber or something coming in my room. I packed everything up to leave and find another hotel and they gave me another room that was decent. But will never stay here again

We stayed 3 nights there. One of the sheets had 3 big stains (about 3 inches in diameter each) by the pillow, which was impossible to have been missed b the cleaning staff. On day 2 when we returned to our room it was just like we left it in the morning. When I asked at the front desk about this, I was asked if I had requested for there not to be any service done. After I replied I hadn’t, they said it was too late (5 pm) to have anything done and they would clean the following day. On day 3 the only thing they did was replace the towels. No cleaning, beds were like we left them in the morning (of course they never changed the stained sheet). There was some plumbing work being done and between the plumbers smoking all day long and the shady guests staying there and smoking all day it was horrible getting to our room. When I checked out I asked if what I had experienced is the way it normally is. The lady replied they were short on staff and she was sorry. That was it. Any place you would pick will be 1000 times better than this place. The only thing going for this place is the location (which is why I picked it). Big mistake having picked this hotel.

Room looked nice but the beds felt 20 years old. The sheets did not smell clean at all. Location is good walking distance from the beach. But if u want a good clean sleep just pay the extra $100 and stay across the street.

This property has been updated and has hard floors, seemingly fresh paint, updated fixtures and is close to beach acess. The linens were fresh and since we didn't need full service after the first night, we were able to trade our used towels for fresh ones. They offer 2 tiny bars of soap but no shampoo or conditioner (not a big deal since there is a Dollar Tree, Dollar General, Albertsons and Rite Aide nearby). You do need to drive to Embarcadero St. where there are plenty of shops and restaurants but there is usually parking. If you have bikes, the hotel is near the bike path that leads you to the rock and Embarcadero. For a budget motel I would absolutely stay here again.

When I arrived for my stay July 6-8, I arrived a little early to check in. I already know if you want to check in early you get charge $20 extra. I walked in to the office there was a lady with long hair and glasses. I said I had a reservation for ..... She rolled her eyes at me and said with a very unpleasant voice checking in early is $20.00 extra. I said ok. She rolled her eyes again and checked me in and gave me my keys and said your room is in the back. Other then the staff the stay was ok.

Never again

Last minute reservation for the 4th. After a long drive we were greeted with an unfriendly woman. When we got to the room I noticed the latch was falling off, like something had happened here. The handyman came immediately and “fixed it”. He was nice but I didn't feel at ease staying there. I’ve stayed in other motel 6 before. This was my least favorite.
