It"s a great bargain, but if you are a light sleeper the location may be too noisy. I only heard the sirens (there's a fire station close by) because I was awake.

A nice surprise

I will never hesitate again to take a room at Motel 6. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and the lighting was good. The Southbay Motel 6 is not in a good area - ALOT of racing cars and motorcycles, but once I turned on TV, the sound wasn't that bad.

I stayed over a year ago for 10 nights and one year later the service is still top notch and the property is well maintained. The housekeepers are impeccable when it comes to cleaning and the rooms are modernly dated and comfortable. The only eyesore is due to underground sewage/plumbing along the entryway path. Otherwise, by far one of the top motel stays within the Motel 6 franchise!
