Great place to stay right by the ocean, staff are super friendly and helpful and the cleaning staff are on point too! Car parking was amazing right outside my room. Only downside no coffee in my room but was offered on reception which was no big deal!

Clean and convenient property located close to the beach. For a Motel 6 it was definitely high quality. Staff was able to allow me an early check in for a small fee of $25. It was very appreciative after a long drive.

The perfect short stay Motel. Everything was clean. The style was retro modern, very cool. Microwave and refrigerator. A lot of space for the tiny sq footage. Very highly recommend.

This is THE original Motel 6. It’s been updated but still has a mid-century modern charm. Would stay here again!

Good. But could be better.

Above average decor for Motel 6. But the guy at check was just rude and super unfriendly. Rooms are small and have no microwave or coffee makers. You also have to use your room key to get a stingy amount of ice from the ice machine. The descriptions of mountain and ocean views is a bit of a stretch. Mountain view has telephone lines. Ocean view is a sliver due to residential buildings around the property. There are better, less deceptive places in the area.
