For starters, I am deeply disappointed that my belated birthday celebration trip had such unfortunate events occur. I included a screenshot of my confirmation for TWO nights. Night one, I took a cold shower because the water wouldn’t get or stay warm. Then, day 2, I came back from San Francisco to return to my room. All my belongings and travel bag from in my room were thrown in a trash bag and the front desk person gave it to me saying I only booked one night and they were full. I showed him my confirmation for two nights. I had to pay more money to another motel nearby. Thankfully I got there last vacancy. I took a warm shower and was able to calm down. I will never book here again. Good thing I found another vacancy.

When I first booked I had booked for park inn by Radisson. However when I got there it was a motel 6. If I would’ve known it was a motel 6 I never would’ve booked. The beds were very hard and uncomfortable, the ac unit was very filthy. Most of the plug ins did not work . The shower floor was very dirty . And I had booked a room to accommodate 4 people and it was very small to even move around a singular other Person.

San Jose staff members are very rude. Cleaners knock on door at least once per day to make sure you don't damage anything in the room while also offering towels and taking garbage. I had my room knocked on 2-3 times per day in the last 3 days of my weeklong stay. There are no Quiet signs and you can't refuse by not opening the door because they will keep knocking! The front desk does not allow any late checkout and it's at 11am sharp despite Motel 6 corporate policy having checkout at noon for most locations. If you ask them for any sort of late checkout extension, they will charge you money or call security to insist that you leave right away. If you don't renew the same room on time before 11am, you must leave the property and come back at 3pm for a different room. It's more work for their cleaners but the management staff doesn't care. Wifi stops working several days of the week. All of the above despite Park Inn having failed and being run under Motel 6 new management as of May 2025. This hotel is annoying and that's why they are keeping the price low for now. Other than these big staff and wifi issues, rooms are clean. Bed is old spring mattress and uncomfortable. Has fridge and microwave without costing extra. Allows 1-2 small pets for stay included with your room.

A decent budget alternative. Nice front desk staff but very slow to check in. My understanding is they have two different reservation systems right now. I see both Motel 6 and Park Inn by Radisson so I guess they're changing from one to the other, but don't know which way. I liked the room okay. It had a fridge and microwave. Decent hot water in the shower, toilet was great at flushing (you'd be surprised how many motels have poorly flushing toilets), toilets quite rough but adequate for drying off. Having a handheld showerhead was great. I wish all rooms, not just rooms marked 'accessible," had them. Wifi was spotty but working. TV, I dunno, I don't watch TV so I never turned on the set. The wifi could use some signal strength improvement. I never got more than 2 bars, no matter where in the room I was. There are people here who may be homeless but trying to stay off the streets still. I know that makes some travelers from elsewhere uncomfortable but try to cut them slack. I never felt like I was in danger even though the area is a bit rough. Overall, once this motel completes the transition from one chain to the other, checking in should improve.
