Clean and convenient property located close to the beach. For a Motel 6 it was definitely high quality. Staff was able to allow me an early check in for a small fee of $25. It was very appreciative after a long drive.

Good. But could be better.

Above average decor for Motel 6. But the guy at check was just rude and super unfriendly. Rooms are small and have no microwave or coffee makers. You also have to use your room key to get a stingy amount of ice from the ice machine. The descriptions of mountain and ocean views is a bit of a stretch. Mountain view has telephone lines. Ocean view is a sliver due to residential buildings around the property. There are better, less deceptive places in the area.
