You get what you pay for. Not a horrible place to stay, great for a quick sleep. Hotel staff was helpful trying to get me and my family rooms right next to each other . Room was clean for the most part but did have a smoke smell to it . Shower was very tiny . A lot of noises going on outside from people and cars on the middle of the night . A lot of parking available.

I've had pleasant stays at other Motel 6 locations, such as the one near LAX, so I came in expecting a similar, reasonably comfortable experience. I was sadly mistaken. This particular location was deeply unsettling from start to finish. The room reeked of stale smoke and other unidentifiable smells. The smells got into my clothes and hair AND the bed smelled also. I smelled like the room all day. The air conditioning unit was visibly packed with dirt and grime. Turning on the heat only amplified the terrible smells circulating through the room. The floors were inexplicably sticky, and most alarmingly, there appeared to be dried blood on one of the nightstands. The shower floor had a noticeable lean to it and wasn't entirely flat, making it awkward and uncomfortable to stand in. I originally booked a two night stay. When I returned to my room after my first day out, I found my room completely tossed. To make matters worse, my room key had been deactivated. I had to walk back down to the front desk three separate times because the replacement keys they kept programming simply did not work. After waiting around for about 20 minutes, a manager finally had to come up to make my room back up. I would strongly advise avoiding this particular Motel 6. Unless it is your absolute last resort and you have zero other options, you are better off looking elsewhere. Even then, I’d honestly rather just sleep in my car.

AC keeps the room habitable and dry, but the shower curtain is wildly inconsistent with stopping water from leaving the shower pan.

The rooms were HORRIBLE - we stayed there just to catch an early flight and we would've been better off just sleeping in the airport. The staff that checked us in was friendly - she did her job. The problem are the rooms - they just smell and you can tell that they're *lightly* cleaned. I'm also pretty sure they have bed bugs.

There was a trash bag full of trash in the trash can, I requested a room change because a room was right next to the laundry room it was loud noisy couldn't rest it was very obvious that the hotel wasn't full and there were some rooms available, went to the front desk to request a room change and the person at the front desk was rude and irrespectful she started screaming and told us that if we want it we leave and she will refund us the money. Random people knocking at the door trying to deliver something for a building next door
