Surprisingly clean and in a great location for a Motel 6. Not your typical aesthetic for these motels, making the stay mostly enjoyable. It is in a great location, only one street away from the beach and main road. Lots of stuff nearby including downtown SB. The only downside is that the walls are very thin so noisy neighbors will be bothersome. You can hear conversations clearly. Aside from the shower seeming as if it had been walked on with shoes, all other aspects of the room and hotel as a whole were clean and accessible.

Guy on check-in desk was taking a personal call all the time he was dealing with our check-in, not impressed. He gave us our room key cards without explaining where our rooms were as he exited the office to continue his personal call. Rooms were small but clean. No facility to make a hot drink, just vending machines outside. Woken in the early hours by loud arguing coming feom the car park area. Close to the beach and everything is within easy walking distance. Convenient for a 1 or 2 night stay only.

It's certainly not worth the price to be honest. Yes, it's a great location, no doubt about that, but it's a Motel 6. There is absolutely nothing more than what any other Motel 6 offers.Though the rooms do have a cool vintage feel.... Still doesn't make it worth the price. I was a little taken back by the front desk dude when I asked him to break a $5 bill so I could get a soda from the vending machine and he said he didn't have change... So I asked if the vending machine gives change and he said yes, in quarters. Well the vending machine did not give any change at all, so when I went in to tell him, he proceeded to open up the drawer and hand me the $2 I was shorted by the machine .. Why he wasn't just honest in the first place about having change for my 5 made no sense to me. I definitely did not appreciate that at all. The girl working was cool though.

The location is perfect and there is easy parking which is nice. The room is extremely small and doesn’t have a microwave. I loved the decor of the room and everything looks newly updated which is nice. Our room wasn’t the cleanest and the bed sheets were extremely scratchy. I only stayed one night and for the location it was good but I don’t know if I would stay here again in the future.

Clean but small rooms. No dresser for clothing. Pool is not heated. Not a big deal, just letting people know. We had a good stay.
