Its just an old property. Motel 6 tries to take good care of but after time it shows it's old age. Price was great and location was great. Staff was spectacular. Not sure I would stay again because of the old mattresses.

The stay was inexpensive for the area, but what it lacked, was not worth the trade off. Staff is wonderful, especially Dot. However rooms are tiny and worn out, with thread bare sheets and towels. Bedding actually dips in the middle with worn out mattresses and is hard. Towels are more the size of large hand towels. Very old pillows. No coffee maker. Shampoo and conditioner are in two tiny packets. Not even enough for one person . If the price difference between here and a higher rated hotel is 40 dollars, just pay the difference and have a better stay.

The motel faces the freeway. I was told there used to be a sound barrier, it was removed when a lane was added to the freeway 2 years ago, and never rebuilt. As a result, some rooms are extremely noisy all night.

Not worth even a cheap rate. Dirty. Go elsewhere

The beds are hard and lumpy old spring mattresses. The heater- a/c is loud and can’t keep a temp making the rooms unbearable at night. The cleaning ladies take out nasty trash from the parking lot bins before they start cleaning the rooms with the same gloves on. We had a complaint and talked to 5 staff members wanting a manager to contact us, they all promised us things, but no one ever contacted us. We gave up and left. If it’s a cheap rate then you get what you pay for here.
