6/10 Good

Checked in early morning around 1 am. Two individuals were walking around parking lot while checking in. Employee didn't seem concerned to see them there. Room was ok for the price and location.
Judith, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Don’t expect a good night sleep if you stay here.
Joseph, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Sure they have hourly and weekly rates, that kind of place. Staff was nice enough, and when I left at 5am believe I saw 24 hour security, which was reassuring, but next time I'll stay a bit further off the highway, probably in Mill Valley.

No Old Motel Smell

So far as motels go, Motel 6 is a great place to stay. It was somewhat updated (e.g., no carpets) and didn't have that old motel smell. The location is a short distance from shops and restaurants. The clerk who checked us in was courteous and efficient.
Kimberly, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is in an ideal centralized location, but the surrounding area, which is out of the hotels control, is very seedy. There were domestic disputes that we could hear. It's too bad the area is so ghetto.
Gary, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Stay in motel.

Well the hotel staff was friendly and helpful. The room felt very second rate, I did not feel safe, there were a lot of hookers outside our door. It's not the Motel 6 we were expecting.
Jan, 2-night trip

FRICKIN ROACHES. EVERYWHERE
Jeremy, 3-night trip

No frills and the beds are hard as sleeping on concrete. Glad it was for only one night
