Just like another guest wrote in his review, we spent one night there back in July of 2012. No A/C, but it was a cool evening and the circulation fan did work. Now we stayed two nights earlier this month of April 2013. With two beads, non-smoking we were in the same block of rooms. Same thing no A/C, maintenance... More

We were intending to stay at the Best Western but was full as it was a holiday weekend - then tried Quality Inn across the road who tried to charge us $189.99!!!!!! And admitted it was profiteering. Went next door to Motel 6 - normal rates, courteous desk staff - clean basic room - everything worked - absolutely no complaints.

Woke up Saturday morning July 30th with about 12 bites on my face, left hand and arm. I advised the front desk that evening that I had woken up with the bites, the next day they changed the bedding. We stayed a total of 3 nights and every day more bites showed up. After we got home on Monday, I... More

Stayed here in July 2012 for a night while visiting Monterey and Salinas. The Motel 6 was nothing more than expected: a convenient but inexpensive place to sleep for the night. The front desk had a worn and tattered sign taped to it noting that the air conditioning was broken. Indeed, the A/C in the room did not appear to... More

Stopped here after flying in to San Fran on the way to LA. Quick, easy, no frills. Everything as as you expect at a Motel 6. Website claims this location was refreshed but I didn't noticed. Choosed this location because it's the closest to Pinnacles National Monument,

All motel 6's are what they say they are basic but OK. they have clean beds, clean rooms, clean bathrooms, in fact the showers are great and powerful & finally TV - what more do you need!? I think they're mainly used by travelers and lorry drivers. We had no issues with the motel and slept well. The location was... More

Generally lacking comparison, but this Motel6 was exactly what you would expect from a sterile, cold chain-Motel... Small, without any amenities, and a bath which they probably clean with a pressure-washer... Very low quality, but ok for a night, I suppose... The pool area was nice to sit around at night, but you had to whisper... Which paper-thin sheet-rock and... More

I chose this hotel over Days Inn because the rate was cheaper at Motel 6. Both of these hotels are in the same area. I saved $150 picking Motel 6 over Days Inn; but I got what I paid for - no hairdryer, no free Wi-Fi, no refridgerator, no microwave, no complimentary coffee in my room. The bedspread looked like...

Hmmmm.... Well, while racing bikes each month at nearby Toro Park over a 1.5 year period up to late 2007/early 2008, and staying at the lovely Motel 6, it wasn't until receipt of 9 bedbug bites one night that I finally threw in the towel. Bedbugs - yuck! Itchy as all hell! Big welts! Of course, all I got was... More

Avoid rooms in the back! A very busy prostitute ring is run out of the back section of this hotel. Management knows and says they can't do anything about it. After all, they are paying guests, too. We booked this hotel for three nights over Memorial Day weekend and barely handled two. Loud parties. Drunk guests and single men in... More
