The high ratings are either fake or from people with extremely low standards. The only positives were the size of the fridge and the bathroom being updated.The room window faced the freeway, literally less than 20 feet from the cars passing by speeding at 60+ mph. It was extremely loud and felt like our beds were in the middle of the freeway lanes! There's nothing besides small hand soap, so you have to bring your own shampoo, conditioner, lotion, etc. There was no fitted sheet on the bed, so the flat sheet didn't stay in place. The platform the mattress is on is smooth and the mattress kept sliding off of it whenever we sat up and leaned on the headboard, or got on or off the bed.There was hair on the bedsheets and on the "clean" towels. The towels were gross, full of brown stains. I asked for clean towels and they were also gross, with hair and stains. There's no "Dot not disturb" sign for us to use like in most hotels. Room service knocked on the door our second day there and insisted on entering the room, saying it's policy.I said it wasn't a good time (I was sick in bed and not properly dressed). She called the front desk to tell them and they called me about it! I asked for clean towels and the housekeeper insisted on coming in to put them in the bathroom and take the unused "dirty" ones, with me in my sleep gown! That was so intrusive and unnecessary. They also allow pets and there were several dogs barking late at night and at 7 am. Definitely not returning.

Our room was literally 20 feet from the freeway. The property was ok by Motel 6 standards. For the price, it worked.

Air conditioner is great, that's our semi-comfortable, television works great, first room that I stayed in the don't give complimentary shampoo. I liked the parking is free others are on a daily charge. It was pretty quiet for my three nights, people were out and about talking throughout the night which didn't bother me. Some of the people that I ran into coming and going were very polite and greeting you. I'm always enjoyed staying here when I'm in the area.

If you are on a budget. This hotel is clean and great location. Close enough to the beach. About 10mins away. A lot of budget restaurants and grocery store around it. Free coffee in the lobby area. Very convenient for family on a budget. You know we all can save a little money with the economy. The staff are polite and housekeeping is on time always in cleaning your rooms. The best thing is that they are PET FRIENDLY. !!!

It wasn’t my first choice of places to stay because Motel 6 doesn’t have the best reputation. The room was clean. And there was one towel for each of us. We asked for more towels and we were told we had to turn in our other ones before we could get another towel. I also was unaware that we were literally right next to a freeway. We asked the hotel if they had beach towels to use and we were told no we were also told we couldn’t use the bath towels. Parking was pretty good the first two nights the third night. We couldn’t find parking and had to use the flooring people’s parking lot fearing our car would be towed. After the first day, the room got a funky smell to it like feet. Overall, I can’t complain. It was what we needed in a pinch.

Pros: clean rooms, great location with lots of food and grocery options, quiet area Cons: they don’t provide shampoo, parking is extremely rare at nights

Parking is ONE car per room! We had to park my friends car on the street off property... Just be prepared...

Spacious room, convenient parking, comfortable bed, good location with pet relieving area.

Room was clean and comfortable. AC worked well. Parking was easy and well lit so there were no security concerns. Shower head/water pressure left something to be desired. And they only provided a bar of soap in the room. They might have had shampoo if I had gone to the desk and asked but it wasn't that critical for my stay. On the one hand, location is good. Easy access. Convenient to several places to eat. One the other hand, most of the rooms back up right against the freeway. It is only several feet outside my window. Fortunately, they have quadruple paned the glass which dampens a lot of noise, but without earplugs (which I always use when traveling) I can imagine it would be unpleasant. The nice things is, they have a pair of earplugs sitting on the table in the room for you to use. Very thoughtful. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here if I needed a place in the area again.
