The staff was very welcoming and the room was clean and well kept. If you stay on the west side of the building it can be a little noisy due to the freeway next to the building. However, later at night the freeway traffic lightens up and there is less noise.

Location is not great if you want to be close to the beach. The room had an infestation of little flies that were all over the walls. The walls looked like they never get washed.

This property is very unsafe. Homeless people in the parking area, people living and hanging out in the property all night, etc. I stood one night and hotel did not even want to give me a refund for the additional days I didnt spend there. I even had a stranger knock on my door accessing and asking questions which was the last straw to why I checked out the next day. Dont Stay In This Hotel!!!!!

Decent

We stayed here for a 3 day soccer tournament the room is not terrible. The shower curtain needs to be replaced ASAP surprisingly it wasn’t noisy. Most motel 6 hotels are noisy. We didn’t get room service. Parking is free. It’s ok! Not terrible like some of the reviews.

This was just a quick stay and will be the last I ever stay in a Motel 6. I guess you get what you pay for. The outer part of the hotel was doable. When we arrived, there were tweakers right in front hanging out. I booked a non-smoking room and the room smelled like cigarette smoke. The office staff weren’t that friendly. Straight to the point and that was it. We returned at night to sleep and there was this guy smoking two doors from my room. I felt that it wasn’t safe for my family & considering the location it didn’t seem like a bad area. Pillows were super flat, shower was insanely installed in reverse and the floor got super soaked. The TV channels were not clear at all. Again it was just to sleep but I think it could’ve been a bit better.
