Went to the classic car show in Pismo and needed a room for one night. It wasn't bad, quiet and safe, the room was small and needed a little updating but it worked. The price was right, close to the freeway, it all worked out nicely.

Bathroom wasn’t very clean. Vent had dust all over and hanging down from it. The floor tiles were filthy. Bathroom sink wouldn’t drain.

The room was clean and fairly quiet. The property was close to route 101 and easy to access. The ac/heater was very noisy. There was no spare blanket, no hair dryer, no toiletries except for soap.

Decent place to stay in the price range. Easy to park and the room was clean. The only downside was that the walls are pretty thin and it did get a kind of loud at night because we could hear the rooms next to us.

My last stay was great. Everything was clean and comfortable. This stay the bathroom was needing some attention. Old soap bar on top of shower where it meets the wall and the vent on ceiling in need of serious cleaning. Couldn’t help but look at it when you’re standing in the shower. I meant to let them know but was in a rush to leave. Otherwise, comfy room.

This was my first time ever booking a hotel for myself. I got confused when the lady at the front desk asked me how many adults would be staying in the room, because while I was the only person sleeping in the room, I planned to have someone visit me. When I started to express my confusion, the lady at the front desk became extremely rude and condescending. This is the single worst customer service experience I have ever had, and the only time I've ever been upset enough to post a review. I will never stay at this property again, and will probably avoid ever staying at any Motel 6 location ever
