    A break sign when the employee wasn't on break
    Erin D.

    "The One Star Gas Light Express" Giving one star is quite generous. I would recommend not booking here. I have had more than a couple stays here. All of them came with invasion of privacy for free. They will enter your room at any time and play it off on cleaning but they don't always clean so I'll leave it to your imagination why they would do that. They will enter your room to clean when you have told them not to. I came back to find them in my room after we came back from breakfast and the girl was standing over my bed not making it. Came back and the room wasn't thoroughly cleaned. Their key cards do not work and require several trips to the front desk and they still don't work. They will tell you it's based on "your electronics" but if you look at the key card mag stripes electronic strips they are worn from overuse. They need to replace their cards and the batteries in their doors and also okay the cards for the right number of days as per the reservation. Their front desk is a mixed experience. Rianna the Front Desk agent that was working at night on Dec 18 2025 should not do customer service. She stated," She does not have to wear a name tag." (But she was the only one from this location not wearing one, go figure.) She comes off angry and not caring at all. If you bring issues to her she will lie to you and gaslight you and tell you they don't exist. I told her about the issues; she lied about it. She pretended to know rather than saying, "I don't know." When I said," I will talk to your supervisor," she said,"You are rude and are not welcome back." I said in a calm but firm voice ,"My dog is in a hot car because you've made me do two trips to the office on a second night stay after having all of my other issues with you." Couldn't activate the key cards right. But she denied repeatedly that there were issues and blamed it on me as the guest. Then, required me to make 2 trips back and forth to my room while my dog was getting hot and upset in our vehicle because we couldn't access our room. Our window air unit stopped working correctly mid day. They have weird foreign hairs in their showers because they don't clean thoroughly. Also rust stains painted over and mold coming thru the paint. My nose has been stuffy the whole time here. As much as they access your room or try to gain access to your room to do "room checks" under the guise of cleaning with very little cleaning done. Today for instance at 11am or slightly before which would have been a check out time. I was dozing off to an am nap and heard loud banging at the door which caused my dog to be startled and bark. I went to the door, peaked thru and declined room service. 40 minutes later as I was dozing off again, they attempted once again to enter the room. Loud knocking at door. Cue dog startled barking and once again I declined room service as I peaked thru the door. They continued to patrol outside my door back and forth for the next several hours and the only thing that kept them from trying to attempt entry again was my dog barking as they came close again. Mind you, room I was in is an end, and they have many empty rooms so it was unnecessary for them to patrol outside my room. Additionally, upon check in the first night the key cards to access the room barely worked it took "six or more" swipes with both 2 different cards each time after bringing luggage in from the car. Then, I received an odd call from the front desk inquiring," if everything was okay?" No motel 6 ever calls to check if you are okay. I let them know I was bringing my luggage in with my child and dog. They basically told me to "have a nice night." There are also cameras all over the property directly outside your room etc. Watching your move at all times so they can track you as a guest. There are also limited outlets to charge any of your devices. Some of their beds are broken as well from overuse and have not been replaced. Also, the walls are thin and you may hear people screaming or fighting which is what was heard last night.

    Guys, DO NOT GO TO THIS MOTEL! When I checked in, the front clerk was so mean and told me that I was fat. When I went to my room I got hit with a very weird smell, and saw so many rats!

    We spotted 3 or 4

    We decided to take a chance on this hotel after seeing a few reviews saying it was refurbished and okay. We spent 600 bucks on a total of three rooms for 2 nights. Roaches in one room, no hot water in the other. Absolutely ridiculous. When bringing it to their attention- they said they'd have house keeping spray. Why is that the response? Nasty.

    Dirty with Bugs! We have stayed at Motel 6 locations before and our expectations are never too high but we have never had to deal with what were probably bed bugs or roaches as soon as we arrived. We smashed 2 and 2 more still appeared on the counter and between the bed sheets. The blanket also looked Dirty and had a pretty big cigarette burn hole on it. We were there for about 10 minutes and had to check out. We wish we could've gotten a gift card or credit to another Motel 6 but they said they couldn't do it so now we're short about $500 until the refund hits and we have to pay for another hotel. So disappointing way to start a trip.

    Beyond disgusting, beyond unsatisfied, this is not just a waist of money but hard work I put in. FOUND A SPIDER MY 8 MONTH YEAR OLD ALMOST CRAWLED AND TOUCHED, mold, Broken objects, stained pillow case, hair on drain, rooms were not clean, there was no shampoo and conditioner that is included in our room; had to bicker with the customer service rep just to get it... I'm so disappointed, my money waisted. I tried getting a refund as soon as I came in but they refused. I have all the proof to prove it AND I still want my rerefund. I'm a 1st responder with a well earned vacation and this is what I get? So offensive to think companies would charge this much and not put their effort in making you feel like it's worth it. Motel 6, refund my money please, fix your issues in your rooms and treat your clients better to earn more than a 2 star rank for your hotels. This was completely unexceptional. I will remove this and pictures when I get my refund. I will post in Google and booking and every other app. Not okay.

Fortunately, over the next few days we met Ms. Di, Ms. Diane, and Ms. Karen, whose kindness and warm hospitality made all the difference. They were always so sweet and genuinely curious about how our day had gone whenever we returned to the hotel, which made us feel truly cared for. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the lobby had a pleasant, refreshing scent every time we walked through. The mobility accessible shower was a huge plus, especially since my partner is a disabled veteran--it made things much easier and more comfortable for him. And the remote controlled curtains and blinds were such a fun and convenient touch that we absolutely loved. The store on-site was convenient and had a great selection of items. We also thought the self serve "pour your own beer" option was such a cool feature, even though we didn't get a chance to try it. The pool area was decent and relaxing; we just wish there had been a jacuzzi to enjoy. We also hoped to use the grill, but the rain had other plans. Overall, the hotel was relaxing, welcoming, and made even better by the wonderful staff who brightened our stay. We left feeling grateful and well taken care of, and we would happily return.

    I originally posted a 5-star review prematurely following my first stay - sadly - after 4 separate…read moreweekends here, I feel that rating no longer applies. The Good: My first several visits were excellent. Mwinji's polite and courteous reception at the front desk, and Michael's service at the Bistro for breakfast. The hotel itself has a few, great pros: instant hot water, non-slamming guest room doors, and free parking. Sophia at the front desk is a class act who is an expert at service recovery following a nightmare room I was placed in during my 3rd stay here. The Ugly: During my 3rd stay, I was placed in Room 307, which suffered from severe cleanliness issues (overwhelming use of concentrated air freshener by housekeeping that invaded even the pillows and blanket - causing me to leave coffee bags in two spots to hopefully absorb the smell) and missing basic amenities (desk chair didn't function, missing bath mat/towels, missing room water). Worse, the AC unit was missing buttons, and it never dropped below 71*F (during an insane heatwave, no less). Since the concentrated freshener smell was so overwhelming, I called the front desk at 4am try to switch rooms - but the rude night auditor just dismissed me. Room 307 is what the industry calls a "last-sell room". If I booked a deeply discounted rate through Priceline or Expedia, I'd expect to be placed here - but I booked direct, under a corporate rate. While Sophia moved me to a better room the next day to right the wrong, the follow-up from leadership was disappointing. Italia - the Director of Operations - personally requested I text her the photos of Room 307's condition, but the number she wrote down on her card and handed over to me - wasn't even hers to begin with. Following that odd exchange, I attempted to confirm my standard high-floor/away-from-elevator preferences via the official Marriott Bonvoy app chat for my 5th consecutive weekend booking this past weekend. The hotel completely ghosted the chat for six hours. I eventually called the property directly the Saturday before my arrival to clear up the silence, and spoke with Dmitri at the front desk. Dmitri admitted that there was not a single line of notes or room preferences saved anywhere on my permanent guest profile. Every single promise from Mwinji or Italia to "remember my room preferences" was false promises. Keep in mind, I never asked for a suite. Just the two queen setup that I booked, "high floor/away from elevator". Small ask for someone who is Platinum Elite with Marriott. Checking in on a Sunday at a business park hotel, with half the parking lot empty - nonetheless. After four back-to-back weekend stays here, its disappointing after being handed a dead-end number, ghosted on the app, and discovering your profile is a blank slate. I've stayed at hotels where guest preferences are locked in from my first stay - and remembered in subsequent stays at the same property, year after year - without my need to remind them. I've since cancelled my remaining stays at this property and rebooked them at a different Marriott in the area.

But I was able to call the front desk, and they were able to send someone to fix it the same day so finally, hot water in the shower! I wanted to talk about how AMAZING the shuttle service is. So they provide a complimentary shuttle service to Disneyland and Knotts Berry Farm. My kids actually enjoyed the shuttle service and it worked out really well with timing for us to travel to the amusement parks without worrying about driving/parking. They have a phone number you can text to make/cancel reservations, they do require advanced notice for this. Each time, they do send a confirmation text so I know I will be picked up. The shuttle may run on time or a little bit late or even a little early, but overall, it was a good experience with it. We always arrived to the stop early enough so we can board. The shuttle does allow strollers without issue so that is great. I think the biggest perk of this place is the shuttle service. Also, parking at the hotel is easy. There's plenty of parking and they do not charge for parking if we are a hotel guest. They provide a parking pass to use during our stay. In the evening, the spots closer to the hotel are taken but still plenty of parking. This is a great location in Buena Park, it is very close to Portos as well so that's a great bonus!
