Typical Motel 6 but in a decent area. Room was clean just bare bones. No shampoo or bathmat. Shower curtain was falling apart. But room was clean and sufficient for a one night stay.

I thought it was great for the price. Friendly staff, clean room. It was a little tough to find. The light on the motel 6 sign in the driveway was burnt out so I drove right by. I did notice the pool was empty but I wasn’t planning on swimming so I didn’t care. Basically a good hotel if you are looking for a clean, quiet room for the night.

At Motel 6 you are looking for an inexpensive room that is reasonably clean and has a reasonably comfortable bed, nothing more. The room was small but OK for the price. The bathroom shower did not appear to have been cleaned, so much so that neither my adult son nor I were willing to use it, the rest of the room was clean enough. The motel is near the freeway so there is a lot of traffic noise. Positives include lots of restaurants nearby and, as noted, convenient to the freeway and the ferry.

Looks like there are permanent residents, and there are chairs in the parking lot. The room smelled strongly of piss, and the bed linens were paper thin and did not smell fresh. We slept in our clothes and left our luggage in the car. The whole room stank, but the bathroom smelled even worse than the room.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
My experience was not of those reflected in recent good reviews. The area and motel was pretty sketchy. Upon check in the front desk requested IDs from everyone in the party which was really odd, I’ve stayed at hundreds of hotels and never had to give identification of everyone staying in the room, there was only two of us. We left and got different accommodations for the evening.

1 room was semi ready, microwave and refrigerator were missing. Second room wasn't ready and when we were able to check in, it hadn't been touched. 2 hours later we checked and it was done. Very low water pressure for shower's. Freeway noise. Facility marginally maintained.
