I’m very satisfied with the Motel 6. The room was clean. The manager and staff were helpful. It’s right by the ocean. The rates are the most reasonable. I seriously hope to return year after year.

I’ve stayed in other properties with the same rating and felt that it was cleaner and safer than I felt in this hotel. I have minimum expectations when staying in a budget hotel, but I don’t think that a clean room, bedding that’s not stained, furniture that isn’t broken, walls that don’t have weird substances on them, a sink that can drain or “clean” towels that don’t have mysterious hair on them is too much to ask for. Positives are location, it was quiet and the front desk person was friendly.

Great location! It was my first time at a Motel 6. It was clean, but total BARE bones! There were NO extras. No blankets (I slept with a sweatshirt on & used my jacket as a blanket), no hair dryer, Kleenex, toiletries, coffee maker, or anything else. Towels were kid sized! Check in was easy. Bed was on the hard side & I could feel springs. If I ever stay here again, I would bring all of the above to make my stay better. But we loved the location. Maybe 2.5 stars, not 3.

The property is near the beach but thats literally the only perk. There isnt a range of walkable dining/cafe options around the area, which is a bummer. The rooms themselves are plain and dated, the wall outlets were loose and nothing stayed plugged in, there appeared to be mold in the shower and over all there were "short cuts" in the room and bathroom, the heater/ac is in a corner and carved into a wall that is unconventional, the shower had a short curtain and there was very apperant water damage along the base of the shower. Minor things like no toilet paper holder are just a mild inconvenience. The front desk was helpful, they got me a new fridge in a timely manner. The housekeeping staff is another story, they were rude and unpleasant each day I ran into them. Overall its good if youre pasing through the area with low low low expectations

Microwave won’t heat. Blinds have major holes in it. Shower handle broke. Tv remote broke and the clarity of tv reminds me of days of moving rabbit ears to get better reception. Called front desk multiple times and no answer. Looks like all kinds of people sleeping in cars in parking lot. AVOID THIS PLACE IF IT IS THE CHEAPEST ITS NOT WORTH IT. Tried to complain to staff or owner and he literally threaten to beat my a$$ and told me to get off the property. The pictures are lies.

We were coming from a different hotel which we had to check out of at 11am with our luggage, so we had asked to check in earlier. They originally said yes but the guy who was working when I came said 2 at the earliest. We decided to just wait outside since we had a lot of luggage and I’m assuming the manager saw us and within four minutes he was able to get us a room. I was very happy about that accommodation!! The room was very nice and the bed was comfy! I would stay again!
