I've stayed in many a Motel 6 primarily due to their rare & awesome "dogs stay free" policy. Some are better than others. This one falls in the lower range because the refrigerator froze everything, wifi was slow, no blanket was provided, and worst of all...killed 2 cockroaches. On the plus side, Benihana is literally next door and open late if you don't feel like driving, and there are [expensive] vending machines onsite for snacks/beverages in a pinch. Staff very friendly. Overall, I'd rate this as "fine for one night".

location is not that bad, its next to the freeway. the room is barely hanging on, overall clean but needs more renovating. No Toiletries, no microwave, no fridge, no breakfast, towels are thin, the tv remote didn't work. parking stalls are narrow, bed cover were just a scratchy blanket and sheets, the a/c worked well. for the price, its not worth it. the staff is friendly although the housekeeping forgot to place extra towels, not sure if front desk forgot to communicate this but i had to go down to get towels. No ants or bugs or dirty room, just low quality motel. overall, id give this place a 5/10.
