Motel 6 Pasadena, CA – Old Town Pasadena Area

I was allowed to stay 21 nights by the manager or owner of this Motel 6 in Old Town Pasadena, CA. I needed this help. The rooms were clean. The staff or the employees working at the front desk were helpful. The parking was good. The Air Conditioning was good. Motel 6 is known for affordable, economical, and clean accommodations. They allow pets or dogs for free, but there is always a bad, irresponsible guest or traveler who leaves their dog alone in their room. This ends up disturbing several guests and me from 1 to 5 am in the morning. We didn't get much sleep that morning. The employees, maids, and guests do not like allowing dogs at this motel. There is one short Latina maid who knocks on the door excessively and consecutively four or five times until the guest or traveler comes to the door. This maid is also ready to force entry into the room if the guest or traveler doesn't come to the door. This is an invasion of privacy, because I haven't checked out of the room yet. I finally was able to locate the manager, Kyle, who told me the guest or traveler with the noisy pet or dog was removed from the property. He also told me it was standard practice for Motel 6 to allow and tell their maids to knock excessively and consecutively four or five times, and to also force entry into the room if the guest or traveler doesn't come to the door. This is very disrespectful to all the guests or travelers. The manager really should be fired right then. I had to report this to Motel 6.

Our room was very dirty sheets were dirty and shower was always cold

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and comfortable. The bathroom could have been cleaned a little better as I found long black hairs in the shower and on the clean towels. I walked to a local store and bought a bath towel. The hotel is pretty basic as far as amenities go. The bus stop is close by if you’re wanting to get around and don’t have a car. There’s also plenty of ride share drivers in the area. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would stay there again.

Hotel was better than expected. Tyler at the front desk was great. He went above and beyond for me.

For what seemed to be the 2 hottest days of the year the air conditioner in my room Was much like some of the workers there they decide when they check in and check out which means they decide when to work and don’t want to work. Telling front desk twice didn’t know justice. And even with this. O asked for a late checkout because I was debating on staying a third day or go to another establishment. Another hot day began to make the decision for me not wanting to relocate, decided there was a knock on the door. It was the front desk literally forced me to pack up and leave. She said. “ either paying now or I’m tossing your (yes she did use an explicit word right here. ) in the parking lot.” how would you feel?

Air Conditioner did not work and not complaining to the front desk. Nothing was done. I still stayed an extra day.

So if you're anything like me bring your own bath towels and washcloths if you know that you're going to be staying there beforehand. I also keep a hardcore-lint roller in my car and I lint-roll the sheets and the bed and pillows before I lay down. Otherwise- you get what you pay for. I've stayed here solo several times for work since January. I liked the upstairs rooms better. This time I got a ground-level room and it was loud beginning about 3am. People were yelling; loud music, animals barking.... Otherwise it was fine. Parking does fill up fast!! if you're lucky enough to park close to your room after initial check-in, then walk to what you need. The area is walkable, lots of stores, liquor store is right next door, restaurants and shops within proximity. All in all it was fine, I was only back there for the evening after an 11-hour work day. Y'all enjoy!

"This was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. I was told the charge would only be $4 at check-in, and then they took $40, with no explanation. It was a total scam. I will never come back, and I do not recommend this place to anyone."

This Motel 6 property has been fully renovated, and it was the best Motel 6 I have ever stayed in. New mirror, new shower, new decor. And it had some perks: a working refrigerator and a working microwave. (If anyone has stayed at Motel 6 as often as I have, you'll know that sometimes these appliances are removed). But the best best best thing: a cleaned up, renovated and functioning pool! Since covid, many pools at older motels that were run-down were shut off and access to the pools locked at all times. This Motel 6 pool is open, functioning, and was quite nice. The staff was super chill, and my stay was very comfortable. As this Motel 6 is near my work and I frequently have to stay near work overnight due to commute issues, I will be staying here again, most likely exclusively.

Stayed here a week with my boyfriend. The bed was comfortable. Room was decent

It was nice for the price

Nothing worked was kind of gross. Used to be super 8 which was a drug hotel. Did not feel safe. Pretty much the same drug motel. Not a good look for motel 6 which is usually reliably clean. A good example of LA being filthy even when a reputable name supposedly guarantees it. So much for motel 6 keep the light on thing.

Clean Noisy up till midnight: street noise , sirens, loud motorcycles

The room furniture was in disrepair. None of the drawers worked. The shower head leaked so much that barely any water got to the person. Also there were a lot of broken down cars in the parking lot.

Staff was friendly and helpful. Towels in the room were riddled with hairs. Ample parking.

It’s a spacious room It had a bit of an old room smell

Advertised as being in Old Town Pasadena but I don't think so. But that and the lower price were what attracted me. Low rent property. It's as if they chose items to make it that way. Stairs were repainted sloppily. Everything looked old and used. Old style barracks configuration. Thin walls. But the shower was good.
