Booked this motel with our softball team for a weekend tournament in Santa Maria based on the pictures. It didn’t look too bad.
It’s always a hit or miss when booking a motel 6 and this was 100% a miss for us.
Majority of us booked 2 full bed rooms.
The rooms were dirty (I.e. pillows/sheets were stained/gross, floors had debris or crumbs) and it was overall very outdated/cheap looking.
The A/C unit didn’t work in our room and the bathroom wasn’t very clean.
The door frames in most of the rooms looked like they were kicked in at one point and got a quick repair, since the caulking was falling off the door every time they were used.
Overall I would not return and would not recommend.
It was not what we expected!! The pictures were so beautiful and when we arrived it was totally the opposite of what is posted. The beds are so small. The place is rundown. It was dirty. Totally not what we were expecting.

Did not have the room we booked available, offered us another room and when I asked for a discount she said, “well you’re already getting a really good deal,” so I guess, go Expedia?
I'm not usually too picky about stays but this one was truly bait and switch. The reception in the pictures isn't even close. That must have been taken 20 years ago. The dirt on the windows was there for a very long time. The room was so uninviting. Thank goodness I only stayed one night. Checked out early, couldn't stand one more minute of my time there. The walls and floors are so thin, I could hear the people upstairs from me walking. Just pay a little more and get something safer and cleaner.
Front staff was very friendly and helpful. I would like to see the basketball court cleaned up and fixed up, I know we would have enjoyed playing on the court. Other than that the stay was great for the price 🙂
My son has a service dog. One of the staff made it clear that the property owners do not like dogs. They are tolerated when and they attempt to avoid booking rooms with them.
I have never stayed in a room as bad as this one there was roaches at night so we kept the lights on in the bathroom and the floor was dirty I walked from the shower to the room to put on my socks and my feet were black also the water would not drain after taking a shower. My wife and I will never stay at another motel 6 also the tv was so small you couldn’t even hear the sound right as it echoed because it was mounted to the wall on a old table top with the center cut out
Amazing stay! Stayed here with young children and felt very safe here. There was no noise from others. The staff was very friendly. We stayed two nights and they did a great job housekeeping our room. Air worked great, room was very clean, tv worked just fine. We will try to stay here again. Ice maker worked just fine, lots of parking, and check in was very fast. Walkable distance to Denny’s and the grocery store. Refrigerator and microwave worked fine. Shower pressure and temperature were great.
