Go to the Motel 6 - North instead.

Typically staying at Motel 6 when I travel for the affordability and decent accommodations, this one was sub-par. The wifi was weak, the AC/Heater was bringing in pot smoke from whoever was smoking outside, the mattress was incredibly uncomfortable and would slide towards the end of the bed if sitting upright on it (against wall) and had no blankets in the room. Because it was a busy event weekend for Cal Poly SLO (and it's one of the cheaper spots), there were many students staying there, who were VERY loud at all hours of the night. At 2 am and 4 am there were college students arriving back (?) and voices carried VERY loudly to all the rooms. There was unexpected maid service during my first day there, which was nice and the staff was all very friendly. However, I've stayed at many other Motel 6 (even the North one in SLO) which are better/nicer.

Nice quiet clean property and affordable. My only wish would be for a few more towels but I could have asked for those. Will definitely stay there again on my next trip through next month!
