I paid a little extra for a nicer room and it was honeslty worth it. I actually really liked tne location and the Motel 6 was one of the nicer ones i have stayed at. You definitely get what you pay for. I'm so glad i brought my own pillow. The pillo was thereare tiny and there were only 3 of them. There are no toiletries other thsn a bar of soap so make sure you bring your own shampoo, conditioner, lotion ect. For a little over $100 total it was well worth it and I will definitely stay here again.

The new to me front desk staff are friendly and nice. A male with well kept longer brown hair wears his motel 6 shirt and name badge has checked us in before. He explained concisely how the reservation & confirmation works when two people with two beds check into a room using a third party. He has great patience. Thanks! The young lady last night I commented on her nice stylish eyeglasses was very efficient and gets 5 stars out of 5 stars. She’s the best!

Although next to the freeway, it’s surprisingly quiet. Room is spacious and has what is necessary. Beds are comfortable and the room appeared clean upon entering. Exactly what i needed for a one night stay before a day at Legoland. I have a toddler and felt safe.

The motel is right next to the highway, so the noise is constant and very loud. The staff service is terrible—three times I was given the wrong key card that couldn’t open my room, and check-in took me 45 minutes from 6 pm to 7 pm. Unless you’re extremely wealthy and just looking to donate money to a terrible motel, stay away.
