Clean and decent motel 6. I love to to there because I can bring my dogs. So difficult to find a place that accommodates our fluffy friends. This was $45 on a Friday in December, we were driving up the coast and wanted a quick cheap overnight.

This is a large facility for a Motel 6. The room was slightly larger than most of the Motel 6's we have been in, but otherwise quite standard. It was clean and the staff was friendly. The only problem was that one of the two ice machines was broken and the other was empty by the time we got to... More

Pretty much what I expected. Room was fair and location of room was right next door to the doors that actually let you out of the building. So unfortunately I was awake all night long hearing the outer door slamming shut. The guy at the check in counter was great though. He was very, very busy and he kept his... More

It's okay. The outside is ugly. It looks like it used to be a hospital, and the inside is nothing special, but the quality fits the price. The rooms were ugly, but clean, and big, so there is really nothing to complain about. Only bad thing is that people can walk right up to your window, and you can't leave... More

OK it is a Motel 6 and this chain does serve a purpose in the travelers world. But the key here is that this is a good motel. We checked in before the room was ready as we were going up the coast to visit family and did not return until late at night. We were in the room for... More

I had chosen the hotel because had a good price and was just for an overnight passing through San Simeon toward north. Good choice, the hotel and the room are clean, spacious and the furniture are in good conditions. If you want a beach hotel however, I suggest you to look for a hotel closer to the beach, that is...

I had planned to stay at the Paso Robles Motel 6, but the bad reviews here scared me off. In one of those reviews, someone mentioned they'd absconded to the San Simeon location. It was 40 miles away from where I had to be during the day, but it looked great on paper and was $22 cheaper. I was not... More

The motel was almost empty. So we had a quiet night in good beds and a clean room. The women at the reception are lovely and give good advices. We really liked this place and will recommend it. The restaurant in the hotel is more than average. I would recommend you go check out the other ones. Although its convinient... More
