O.K., at the risk of sounding like a snob...I just can't stay in a place this bare bones again. We were booked for 3 nights but after 1 night we had to check out. Our original thought was...well, we'll only be there to sleep...still it wasn't good. Everything was so sparse and blah. The blankets were so old and creepy we wouldn't touch them, you didn't want to walk barefoot on the carpet and the towels are this side of paper towels. The bathroom had a nasty smell to it that seeped into the rest of the room. On the positive side, they didn't give us a hard time when we checked out early which was nice.

Stayed there early Feb 2008

Fantastic diner called Margie's nearby for a super breakfast.

Yes, Motel 6s can be sparse but you get what you pay for. We stayed at ths location because they allow pets, and we'd been to other local hotels that allow dogs and were not impressed with the other places. We had previously stayed at the Motel 6 North (around the corner), and this one is quieter and recently renovated. For the price (half of most regular hotel rooms), it was a great value. No blow dryers or coffee makers in the room, and no shampoos, etc. but this location was quiet, well-kept, and close to Cal Poly SLO.

Well, it's a motel 6. But, as far as they go, this one has nicer grounds than most with trees all around and a pool in the middle. Nicer than the north one.
