Not bad not amazing

Generally clean and modern/renovated. Air condition smelled a little and pointed directly at bed and you couldn’t point it another way. Lots of cars on the nearby road so you’ll hear many cars.

We recommend to family and friends

Motel 6 had everything needed for our 2 night stay. The staff was friendly, room was clean, bed was comfortable and it was near the beach. We noticed a little bit of mold where the shower wall met the bathroom wall (to be expected so close to ocean) and our room was located on the second floor which made using the stairs a little difficult for us older folks. Other than that, we would stay again.

The only thing made me feel bad is the people from the office made me a complaint because my dog was inside of my horses trailer. The dog had water and food and 40’ space for running. And my dog didn’t bother barking or anything like that. They wanted to call animal control. IS SO INSANE 😖

Twice, the charge was 0ver $6.00 more than what my reservation, via Expedia charged (displayed and emailed, when I reserved). Their excuse was it can not be changed in their system. Nice location and clean, but staff need better & warmer customer service presentation, and they need to honor reservations made via Expedia!
