We always stay here we love the location. As long as this place is here we will continue to stay here but we do wish they would have a customer rewards program so we could earn free or discounted stays after staying here so many times.
The consistency in the upkeep of this Motel 6 is great. I keep coming back to this location and rest comfortably. The ladies in housekeeping are hardworkers considering that cleaning up after others is challenging. Overall, great staff/service/and an affordable and clean place to rest your head.
This place is always our favorite because it is so close to the beach only a few miles away. Plus it’s very close to the freeway and lots of
Places to walk and have something to eat. Thank you 6 motel for the easy check in we will always be back as long as they have available rooms.

I stayed for 5 days and each day I would come back to the room it would be really clean.
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!
We got there a little later than usual; after 9 pm. Parking seemed full, because most of the customers were already in their room; however there was enough parking to accommodate our later arrival. Customer service was fast and friendly! Thank you!
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.
