Upon arrival, the staff were pleasant and courteous. They checked us in, took our money and sent us to our room. We walked past the swimming pool to get to our room. The pool was completely filled with dirt and old mattresses and box springs were stacked all around the pool area. Opened the door to our room and was met with the horrible smell of MOLD. It was disgusting. The A/C unit was so old it rattled worse than a tin can with gravel in it! It did cool the room though. There was one old plastic chair, two beds and a refrigerator in the room. It did not have a coffee pot, microwave or any other amenities in the room. We did not even have wash cloths until the second day we were there. The beds were comfortable, the bedding was old and stained. If all you want to do is sleep and shower, this dive hotel will do the trick. Otherwise, stay elsewhere. The neighborhood is not so good either. Lots of homeless and drunks wandering the parking lot.

The staff was friendly, but the service for getting towels, toilet paper, or cleaning of the room was almost nonexistent. We had to request new towels all but 1 of our 8 days. We had to get toilet paper from the front desk a few times, the beds were like bricks and VERY uncomfortable. The toilet didn't flush properly and because "maintenance was gone for the day" the front desk just gave me a plunger and wished me luck. The door sometimes stuck trying to get out of the room, there are a lot of homeless people in the araa but they didn't really bother us, there's no pool and no microwaves in the rooms, but they do have a microwave in the laundry room that they don't tell you about for some reason...you just find out by accident. Likely i will never stay here again...despite it being the cheapest option for 3 people for 8 days.

It was decently clean but it smelled awful like cigarette smoke, probably because we were on the first floor and people were smoking in the parking lot. still, affordable and what’s to be expected from a motel 6. the front desk was nice. thankfully we had febreeze in the car which helped

We were doing a quick overnight stay because we were going to Disneyland in the morning so I thought this motel would be fine. Well, the room had an odd unfresh smell, there were bugs (my son woke up with several mosquito bites), I squished unidentified wall crawling ones, and the remote was held together with tape. The mattresses were so uncomfortable and uneven. The bed frames made these breaking nosies everytime my tiny 4 year old moved. The door didn't work at first so it took quite a few tries with the keycard but it eventually worked. I will say that the front counter woman was lovely. She was very friendly and helpful. Will we stay here again? Probably not.

This property tried to steal my $100 "deposit". After nearly 2 weeks, they still had not credited the $100 back, despite no damages(I took photos and video). I called the property and a rude, nasty worker who refused to give her name said "someone forgot" and now says I "may" get a credit in "10 business days". I also saw evidence of fraudulent use of my card in other ways. This property is managed by rude, entitled people who think they can treat guests however they want. I actually LEFT this hotel after 1 night and stayed across the street at the wonderful Holiday Inn where the employees respect the clients. Beware of VERY shady staff at this location

I liked that it was a cheap option near newport area where I was having a surgery, However, it was a a bare bones basic motel with uncomfortable pillows. Good for a cheap option, but the surrounding area has a lot of homeless people crowding the sidewalks that make it feel less safe to explore aorund.
