Overall, this stay was exactly what we needed for a group of 5. Giving a 4 star rating due to the room itself, floorboards were lose, uneven and one of the doors in the room didn’t close/lock. There was a lack of shampoo/conditioner provided but that one is a small detail. Staff was helpful, quick check in/check out process. Very convenient location for the activities we had planned for our trip. Close to the pier, stores & restaurants close by. All in all good stay for us.

Location very good, a/c excellent. Staff was horrible, they never cleaned the room in 3 days and I had to ask for towels 3 times. They insisted they were in the room. They weren't. Only 1/2 roll of toilet paper. They shower was horrible - it took over 6 minutes to get warm water! Overall based on location and price it was ok, but not recommended.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I am a travel, nurse & stay in hotels often sometimes inexpensive stays for a night. Doesn’t give it a reason to be an unsafe place. I was traveling with a mountain bike going through SF to Oregon. I stopped for a night to rest. Searched for a hotel where I can bring my bike into the rm. which I had on a bike rack on my car,I found this hotel. It had parking which made it very convenient, considering all the hotels around the area charge a lot. I was going to bring my bike into my rm. When I arrived, there was an out of service sign on the hotel elevator. I immediately expressed my concern to the front desk, guy with his blank stare. I’m healing from a total shoulder replacement and it was gonna make it almost impossible for me to haul my bike up two flights of steps. I complained asked if he was going to haul it up for me. Again no reply. last night when I walked to get something to eat I asked the front desk guy if he could just keep an eye on my bike because I couldn’t take it up to my room due to elevator, I got back from dinner, checked on the bike. Woke up this morning and my bike was stolen! The hotel is convenient to fisherman, but a bad area. & I’m from LA there is 11/2” gap under the door that is quite troublesome. Room was ok nothing special with stains on the comforter. I asked about cameras and he said they didn’t have any. I’m lucky my car wasn’t broken into. For a hotel this is unacceptable! Will not be using Expedia anymore! Do not book motel 6.

The area was located in a rather lower class of people. The TV kept shutting off as well as the room lights. There were no appliances the shower handle was broken, only one half roll of toilet paper for the 4 nights that we were there. Considering I paid well over $1000.00 I expected better. I would not recommend this dump to anyone!

Here's the lowdown, you get what you pay for. I was traveling alone for work and the place was exactly what would be expected for $100 in a great location. Room was a little worn but thats to be expected, bed was comfortable, no insects and $10 a day to park is dirt cheap. Its not the Four Seasons but my expectations were met. No complaints here.

Gross

The location is awesome but the filthiness is unacceptable. I dont expect much with Motel 6 but at least a clean towel and bed sheets. After we slept we felt so gross.Because the sheets looked disgusting.
Stain on sheet looks like blood.
The floor towel was disgusting looked like she just hung it up and didn't bother to change it.
