I had a good experience staying at Motel 6. The room was clean, the staff was friendly, and the location was convenient. Overall, my stay was comfortable, and I would stay here again. The only downside was having to pay an additional $10 per night for parking, which I wasn't expecting. Other than that, everything went well.

This location is excellent — walkable to Fisherman’s Wharf. The room had heavy cigarette smell which caused us allergic reactions. Was it worth the low price for one night? Not sure.

Not the fanciest place but it was fine. Staff was nice and helpful. Room could use some updates but it was clean and had what was needed. There is an ice machine on site which made me happy. There is a corner store across the street which was great for snacks and drinks. Nice location close to the Wharf.

Room is clean and staffs are friendly. Location is good with a bus to the Wharf right outside. However the first night of my stay two cars got broken into. Mine was skipped. The area felt safe otherwise.
