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

Stayed here for one night with my husband. The hotel was great considering the price. We used the laundry room which was well maintained and clean as the rooms. Ok, there were some strange hotel guests but overall quiet. The Denny's next door is a terible breakfast option though... More

Fairly new renovation, escpecially bath, good beds, TV, Ice machine. Very impressive for a Motel6 (still no shampoo or brkfst, of course, but for $42 bring your own). I cannot imagine what someone didn't like about this; 15 minutes from Monterey in a safe location right next to a Denny's. More

This was the worst hotel that I've ever had the displeasure of visiting. There was large amounts of blood stains on our matress, snot on the wall, food crumbs and hair in the bed and all over the floor, stains everywhere on the carpet and inadequate customer service. Don't stay here...stay in your car if necessary. Not t o mention... More

My husband and I went to a three day Monterey trip last weekend. We stayed at this hotel on the first day of our trip. Customer service at this hotel was excellent. We actually had a minor problem in the room and when we contacted the front desk, a lady who works there immediately solved the problem for us. Very... More

clean i guess, typical motel 6 fare. central AC, only shower no bath, TV with just basic channels and no remote. Heck no bible either. Actually it looked more atractive inside then out, the doors to the rooms were run down and numbers looked ancient. thank god for the lock on the door so all was good. More
