Near the airport
My decision to book here was a value decision as the price was very reasonable and it was located near the airport. The room was pretty bare, as expected, however, the bed was very soft and not comfortable for my wife and I.

Considering this Motel 6 ? ... Don't do it
Online pics of the hotel are considerably better than what you will find in person. Somebody needs to buy this property, demolish it and start over.

Just right.
For what it’s worth, I think it was perfect. Cozy room that served its purpose while I spent the weekend in San Diego.

Very Very Very Poor Condition
Reeked of cigs, mold in the shower, stains on the door, one bed sheet, stains on ceiling, AC wasn't working. One of the worst rooms i have ever been in. I did not even stay one night. Front desk worker was luckily very understanding and refunded me so i could find another hotel to stay

FNU, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Upset by cleaning crew opening the door before
I didnt like the fact we hadn’t checked which was 10 am and the cleaning person opened the door. I don’t think that’s a good practice that person should have knocked first before opening the door. I am upset. Also it was noisy I don’t know what it was but there appears to be an air conditioner or something real loud. It took me a while to sleep. It was not fun hearing that sound at night.

Arrived after spending the whole day at Sea World to come to find out that I wasn't able to stay because their parking lot was "first come first serve" even though i was parked in a spot and that my reservation meant nothing.

Ernesto, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Has deteriorated signifcantly since last stay
I paid hotels.com extra to select a room with a refrigerator. On check-in, I was told that they don't have rooms with refrigerators. The heat in the room wasn't working and the window wouldn't close. There was mold on the window sill. They changed my room but the replacement wasn't much better, The particle board furniture was badly in need of repair or replacement, there was mold in the shower, the shower curtain was tattered and torn and a lot more.

Motel 6 they always leave the light on for me. Comfortable bed and coffee in the morning.

The staff was really nice, but when your rooms are dirty and your sheets stained and ripped (in multiple rooms!), not much they could do.
