Staff and overall cleanliness top notch...for a Motel 6 - and I mean that with all due respect. They were very respectful, professional and courteous, for any hotel. Only problem IMHO was the floors weren't clean to match everything else.

I enjoyed my stay at Motel 6 Costa Mesa. Víctor at the front desk was friendly as I checked in. I didn’t have any issues while I was there. The room I stayed in smelled like smoke somewhat, so that was a bummer, but it wasn’t horrible. The room was clean, especially the bed and shower which I was very grateful for. There is not much as far as amenities go, but you get what you pay for. Overall it was a good stay.
