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.
Christina at the front desk was a ball of good vibes and was amazing! We got everything we needed in a timely manner and she even went above and beyond to get us checked in early! Definitely will be back!
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.
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.
Dog friendly. Nice area to just spend the night. Kid friendly. Cheaper to stay here when visiting sb. Carp has nice small shopping places. Great beaches. Got to have rustys pizza.be back when visiting 805

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff was friendly and helpful but unfortunately the room I stayed in had a weird smell to it, even though we asked for a non smoking room.
It was average across the board. I haven’t stayed in a Motel 6 for over 15 or so years, so maybe it just seemed basic compared to the accommodations that I’m used to. It served it’s purpose of having somewhere to sleep.
