Staff was great- hard working even with many people to handle. The amenities are sparse but reasonable for the price and are as advertised. Close to Dennys, sushi restaurants, markets, shopping, etc. Great value for the price, especially on a holiday weekend.

The employees were very friendly. The inside of the room does need to be upgraded. Curtains were kind of falling off the hangers and the people in the area where a bit sketchy. The sheets and towels were clean though.

After the motels mistake in checking me out early. Paid $492. Offered 20% discount. I will Never go there again. This was my go to pismo motel when i have my pets for years. Private owner's should be ashamed

The AC was out in every until and we were not told until we got there, and it was too late to book with any other hotel due to the holiday. Room was filthy. Food was left in the refrigerator from last occupants. Cable on the TV was not working. Dryer was out of service. There was no ICE ready in the ICE machine. Pool was also filthy. I have stayed at this motel multiple times and this was my first bad experience there. Usually clean and convenient. Alot of unsatisfied customers this time. I really love this location and I hope they do better.

I arrived for a late night check-in around midnight. Greeted the front desk attendant with a friendly hello. He rudely asked for my ID and license plate number. His demeanor to me was almost as if I was bothering him. He finished the check-in process and I went to my room. I noticed that the shower was still dirty along with the shower curtains. There was a red residue on the shower curtains, almost like blood. The shower curtains do not keep the water inside the shower so when I was finished with my shower, I stepped out to a puddle of water on the floor. An extra towel too luckily I had an extra towel to soak up all of the water. Location did have convenient parking.

Horrible experience

First let me say My husband never takes a vacations. He finally took one to go enjoy the beach to have rest and relaxation well first the hotel room that he got it stunk like cigarettes and everything was broken, including the air conditioning He has a hard time breathing as it is then there was no screen on the window so he couldn’t leave the window open to go enjoy his day and get the cigarette smell out Second there was no air conditioning and when he asked to switch rooms, they told him no that none of the air conditioners work they were very rude. I wanted to speak to a manager to get some of my money back to get out of that place and get a better hotel but they were no help This was such a horrible trip and a horrible experience for my husband. This was a gift to him that I gave him. I was so sad and angry when he told me everything and video called me to show me I told him that I would call and asked to speak to a manager, and he said he already did that. They were no help and very rude I’m highly disappointed in motel six I will never stay here nor will I refer or bring my family here. I don’t have pictures to post it right now because I’m at work but when I get off, I’m gonna see if I can edit this. I’m angry as I’m writing this right now. I don’t want you guys to be disappointed so don’t waste your money spend a little bit more and find somewhere nicer.

Staff was nice property was so so not the best by far and the police and transient population are like cat and dogs or they’re playing cat and mouse cause all you see is police and transit not too good looking type of individuals. The mattresses were not comfortable whatsoever. They had sink holes all in them the nozzle in the sink in the bathroom every time you turn it on even just a little nudge it sprays all over you and your stomach like a water hosenon-smoking room smelled really strong of cigarette smoke and it was really cold because there was tape on our window for some reason. I had to call the front desk for rates on getting an extra night because my plans changed last minute and it was the maintenance man who answered and told me that he didn’t know where the front desk person was and that maybe I should try back in about 30 minutes or so that he was just watching the phones he doesn’t know where the front desk person went so it was pretty interesting
