Motel 6 San Diego, CA - Downtown

Adriana was absolutely beautiful and helpful with my needs and questions I asked . She was very nice and pleasant . A real asset to Motel 6

Bad

Comfy rooms and free breakfast It’s not close to any where to eat or drink

The hotel staff was marvelous in it's professionalism, attention, and courtesy. The hotel was adequately clean although in need of paint. My room was very good, clean, and comfortable. The hotel is close to attractions and is easy to access by walking and public transportation.

I have to pay 20 extra dollar por the parking it was supposed to be included.

Very good

Wow never seen a more rough room. The shower was just.... it was clogged. When i tried to unplug it I pulled out a foot long hairball. No exaggeration. I'm not sure if they even tried to switch the sheets because I got several skin blemishes after only one night of sleeping on the pillow. The night staff was rude and cussed me out. They were arguing with one of the "transient" hotel guests and it sounded like they were yelling in my room it was so loud. Neighbors came in and out all night so you can guess the reasons. I could basically see the substance abuse from my room when they stood in the hallways and opened the doors. Oh yeah and the sink water came out so sharply that it sprayed all over the counter until I adjusted it. Makes me think they don't pay the cleaning staff well if there are any

That said, the property could use some attention. The carpets were extremely dirty, the rooms would benefit from fresh paint and general upkeep, and there was a noticeable foul odor in the hallways and elevator. These issues took away from what otherwise could have been an excellent stay. For the price, it's still a decent place to stay, especially if you're looking for an affordable option in downtown San Diego. The staff alone almost earned this hotel 5 stars from me. However, because of the property's condition and maintenance issues, I have to give it 4 stars. With some improvements to cleanliness and upkeep, this could easily be a 5-star experience.

Location easily accessible Hygiene!

Stayed here for 2 nights . I left my room to go to work then when i comeback to my room my clothes that I hanged was gone . I don’t recommend any items especially gadgets in your room while you are away .

Had to change rooms after the window fell off. The first room

However there was stains on the floor hallways and in the room. Iron Man smoking room actually smelled like smoke.

Location Very dirty

Nice location downtown san diego, hotel is in need of some serious deep cleaning. Only stayed one night ,I dont think could have stayed longer. Staff was excellent 👌

They were fast and kind Everything was great

Bed was comfortable We were placed in a room that already had a guest staying in it. The second room we got did not have a functioning smoke detector/it had been removed from the room. The elevator permit to operate was expired as of 01/2026.

Staff was great real ones!!

Pictures did not match at all. Bedding and towels were filthy, room smelled, everything was dirty. Did not end of sleeping there at all and requested a refund and they did not comply.

Appreciate the nightly rates during the week very helpful since I’m here for business leisure, Check-in was smooth and easy I enjoyed the front desk team and their assistance during my stay. For the cleanliness my room wasn’t refreshed I had to ask for a refresh and the comforter had visible burns on them the shower doesn’t have liners it’s just a cloth curtain that leaves alot ways for water on the floor while showering which made me uncomfortable because the floor was very wet the tv in my room was very slow and I didn’t have streaming options for Netflix. Other than that everything else with my stay for check-in and rates were perfect. I would highly recommend if you are on a budget.

I liked that I was walking distance to where my events was. It was okay for what the stereotype Motel 6 experience. The room the fact the AC didn't work, and the window had no screen so needed to keep it closed most of the time because of bugs. Also the bed was okay but could've been comfier. The elevator always stopped at level 2. Also there was no parking available and had to pay for parking after spending 300 like that's ridiculous.
