    Taken from my window. There were 3 people staying there. Seemingly with all of their belongings. Didn't bother me, just not ideal.

    If I could give zero stars I absolutely would. Do not rent if traveling alone, especially as a woman. Single female traveling for work. Paid for 12 days to use it as a base between jobs. To come and go as I please for almost 2 weeks. Didn't mind that the first morning there were homeless camped outside when I went to my car. Didn't mind the clear sign of dirt on the walls and doors. Didn't mind that I counted 8 cats roaming the parking lot. The touch and go air conditioning was not even enough to make me close to needing to leave. I'd barely be there. In between days off I go to enter my room and there is a note on my door "Please go to front desk, thank you - management". I am very confused and go to the front desk. Mind you it's 9 pm and I am alone and creeped out, hoping they didn't pack my room up thinking I had abandoned the place. (I had forgotten my key so while I was confused I had to go to the front desk anyway.) I drive to the front and the front desk clerk tells me that there is an issue with my room and they need to move me. I ask why. She says she doesn't know, there's just an issue with my room. I now need to move rooms in the morning by checkout time. I ask if something is wrong because I don't want to sleep in a room if there are issues I need to worry about, she says she has no idea but that she went into my room to check if it is ok and there are no problems, it is safe. More confused, because if there's none, why am I needing to move on a day I was hoping to have off from work? She says that I'm not in trouble, but that note has been on my door for two days... ok? I prepaid. Repeating I'm not in trouble but that I need to move, she makes me a key and I walk back out to my car. As I'm sitting right in front of the window, I watch the front desk clerk send a text, and then an immediate phone call to someone. This is creepy to say the least. Again, I am alone and traveling. I return to my room and make my way inside, and nothing seems to have been touched. That includes the bed, the used towels, nothing. Now I had taken the trash out myself before I left, and I'm generally pretty clean, but it felt weird thinking the front desk went through my room, cleaning nothing (it is the 9th day of my 12 days and nothing had been cleaned once) including the bed not being made. Now I am freaked out to say the least. My room having some underlying problem, someone in my room, someone possibly being called to notify management of my arrival. Who knows, all just uncomfortable. I am typing this about 20 min after speaking with the front desk. I will update tomorrow after I speak with management, but this whole experience has been uncomfortable to say the least and I'm unsure if I'll be able to sleep comfortably. I have attached photos of the room/how I left it and how clean I am, to show there was no reason to move me, I also would like to say, aside from the bad paint and air conditioning, there's nothing wrong with the room itself. Would also like to add, that that there is no input on the tv remote, so you are stuck with basic cable, I brought my Google home to use, but couldn't. Again, not enough to leave, just another annoying tidbit.

    Stayed here instead of camping in the rain. Only marginally better since we were dry and had electricity. Lots of stuff broken, railings, the lamp, the door, the tile, the shower. Dingy and rundown. Some soft stuff like gum shoved in holes in the door. Smelled like smoke even though it was a non-smoking room. Torn curtain.

    Beds are dilapidated, dirty and have fleas

    Fleas and bed bugs! The most disgusting hotel I've ever stayed in. Rooms are subpar cleanliness, mold in vents and air handlers. There is no housekeeping to clean the rooms, we had to change keys and towels ourselves. The laundry machines are rancid and unkept - your cloths come out smelling awful. Lots of drug use on the property makes this place sketchy and stink. Non-smoking rooms have been smoked in - so they wreak of old cigs. Stay far from this place, it's atrocious!

    Kody, Jan and Maggie!!! Jan and Maggie are former Siamese Twins, separated at birth. All three are fantastic human beings, mainly for listening to my long a__ stories - WHILE working hard at their respective jobs!! Very impressive! A bit sketchy clientele, but cheap and dog friendly for NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE! This is the third hotel I've stayed at in Yreka, since the huge fires, and it's by far the cheapest and best overall. The two other hotels: The Klamath Motor Lodge and Best Western Miner's, are way more luxurious, but significantly more expensive. And extremely poorly run. At the Klamath, the owner called the police on me, and put me on a Do Not Rent list when my dog spilled a cup of coffee on a bed pillow!!! Can you say OCD? At Miner's, they locked me out after my payment was "Pending" for some reason for two days. They immediately demanded cash payment, and refused to even look at my cellphone bank app, which showed my payment as pending!!! I demanded to get my things out of my room, and they refused unless I paid them a DOUBLE PAYMENT IN CASH!! I called the police and 6 very nice officers responded. They let me in my room without question. I am in the process of finding a lawyer to look into all this. Anyways, MOTEL 6 is HEAVEN by comparison to the total incompetence of the other two motels. (Jan and Maggie are brother and sister, not twins, lol)

    Behind the toilet

    We stop to get rest heading back home to Oregon. The office smelled like dirty wet mop the front desk clerk was a jerk! When we got to the room it was dirty there was hair everywhere they had a used not even half roll of toilet paper on the roll the towel had a pubic hair on!!!! The walls where dirty and dust everywhere! The bed was so old and lumpy and squeezed whenever you moved it was so horrible I will never go to any motel 6 ever!

    The faded, sun bleached sign.

    I decided this would be the overnight stop on our way to Portland. The room rate is reasonable and they accept pets, so what more could I ask for, right? http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/motel-6-yreka?select=2gNiMVaSVxjTha0idpNK-w#LF4zcc_eg3JX-YEPnhqmdA SERVICE: Checking in and out was quick and very easy. The staff was very friendly and pleasant to talk to. Plus, they had doggy treats at the counter and offered them each time I was in the office. THE ROOM: Was the standard, older "Motel 6 chic" as this location has not been "refreshed" yet.... so no modernized / updated rooms. However I noticed they have starting the process and were working on updating about a dozen rooms so far. This room had two double beds and both the room and bathroom were clean upon arrival. They include two basic bars of soap, but no shampoo. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/motel-6-yreka?select=2gNiMVaSVxjTha0idpNK-w#t3h-uniJQmXZX8NdAcMPWA However the bed was horrible!! I could feel every single coil spring in it and every time I moved the smallest amount, it made that old mattress "creek-sproing-twang" sound. I'm sure this will change after the "refreshening" as the bed in the last (refreshed) Motel 6 I stayed in was VERY comfortable! This location offers Wi-Fi @ $3 per day, but it SHOULD be FREE like other Motel 6 locations I've been to! It was painfully slow during the log-in process and after an hour or so the "server quit responding" and was down the next 3+ hours. Ugh. They do have a coin-op guest laundry if you need it. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/motel-6-yreka?select=2gNiMVaSVxjTha0idpNK-w#2gNiMVaSVxjTha0idpNK-w As well as vending machines, plus an ice machine. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/motel-6-yreka?select=2gNiMVaSVxjTha0idpNK-w#07w4Rk0KQ1tAOM7WhLlbAA NOTE: The Black Bear Diner is right next door and has GOOD food and service! There is a swimming pool too, but it was "closed for winter" as there was a thick layer of ICE on the pool! Yeah it was COLD, down to 30 degrees overnight. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/motel-6-yreka?select=2gNiMVaSVxjTha0idpNK-w#Nqq24AxTEHP2_mhUtNs4Fw http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/motel-6-yreka?select=2gNiMVaSVxjTha0idpNK-w#2l5Kh3S8q0tzpIa5Ci27NA I should give 3 stars, but because they are in the process of remodeling / updating, 4 stars it is. OVERALL: I just needed a basic room with a shower for the night. The Ritz Carlton this is not.

    After a 10 hour drive from Pasadena turned off I-5 and into the Motel 6 driveway. This is a classic style with two story walk up. The front desk clerk was very pleasant and helpful. The room was clean with twin full size beds. Motel 6 chain is your basic just a bed and bathroom experience, there is no iron, hair dryer, in room coffee and no shampoo. I still do not understand why no shampoo it could not cost that much. There was one problem with the heating and air conditioner having a low hum that took several minutes to stop even when I switched it off. Around midnight some hick pulled up with his diesel truck and idled it at my front door. The motel is just off the freeway, there was no noise. Next to the property is a Black Bear Restaurant which I did not go to. The front desk gave me a recommendation to the Purple Plum for dinner and Poor George's for breakfast, both very good. If you just want a "good clean room" in Yreka this should be your choice

    This bed bug should speak for itself. Surprised it stayed in the room considering how disgusting a "room" it was!!!

    My girlfriend and I stayed here on our way up to Canada. We walked into the room and noticed that it was disgusting. Especially the sheets. They weren't just stained, there was fresh dirt on them. We were so tired we just fell asleep immediately. Big mistake. Woke up to find bed bugs. A picture of one of them is attached. A few bites emerged on each of our bodies over the next few days. We should have asked for a different room or left altogether when we noticed how gross it was. We were just so tired it didn't really set in until morning. You'd really be screwing yourself by staying here.

    Funny motel 6 comforter. Tacky yet delightful.

    I had to stop here because it was raining too hard to drive. The locals said it was dog friendly. I enjoyed the attitude of the lively office staff. I cannot point out anything wrong with the cleanliness of the room. It looked great-- but I was itchy (not from bed bugs -- because I never sustained any bites) and had respiratory problems for three days after spending the night here. Perhaps it was the cleaners they use, but I fear something worse. Avoid room 126 if you're sensitive to chemicals.

    nice color ...clean

From my very first stay as a brand new rewards member, and 99.99% of the time thereafter, I have been greeted with a "Thank you for being a _________ level rewards member." I always take the time to remark to staff how amazed I am at the consistency of that small gesture. I'm now at the top tier (after four years of patronage) and it is still consistent. I thanked the person for the appreciation and was gifted a little Valentine's Day goodie bag. It had candy in it, sour candy which I am particularly fond of. This location is fairly new or recently renovated - oddly enough the toilet seat was one item showing wear. But carpet, decor, tile, all looked newer. In the dining area, they have the Costa Coffee automatic brewing machines. Those are fairly new addition in some of the properties and it really ups the coffee quality. Yreka also employed one of my favorite condiments, half and half in an insulated pitcher. I don't expect this at small town properties. It is pretty common in Washington and Oregon, where the populace takes their coffee more seriously. So, that was an especially pleasant discovery in the morning. The room was an upgrade to a suite (thank you!) and spacious. Though not a suite in the traditional sense. I didn't really care. It just had a love seat or small couch and coffee table in the room. I had time for breakfast, unfortunately bacon was not offered. So, I selected scrambled eggs, biscuits and gravy. It was okay. The biscuits were moist, the gravy lukewarm (not a huge fan of sausage gravy) and the fake eggs (I'm sure made from some packaged eggs.) were edible. But the coffee was good, even better with the fresh half and half. All HIEs have a great spread for their complimentary breakfast. Usually something for everyone. Pancake machine, warm cinnamon rolls, cereals, some form of eggs, and a breakfast meat or two, fruit, yogurt, juices etc. If you are ever in Yreka, consider the Holiday Inn Express.

We had to roll up towels to try to block it from entering our room under the door. Honestly surprised a smoke detector wasn't triggered #2 around 6:00 AM the guests directly above us clearly had kids who proceeded to run back and forth for 2 solid hours....so much for sleeping in. Breakfast staff named Amber is absolutely lovely! Food was typical hotel breakfast.

I've read good reviews of this place and decided to give Super 8 a chance. You get what you paid for and trust me this place is not good enough for a penny. I booked at Super 8 in Yreka for one night, but when I arrived to check in. The older blonde lady at the front desk told me that i had booked for two nights which was not true. So I asked to speak to the manager. She brought me a guy that was dressed in musty gym clothes and said, "this is the manager. Well he's not the manager but he's like the manager right now.". This man had the meanest attitude I've ever encountered. He kept repeating the "policy" of the hotel. He would cut me off mid-sentence which is a huge pet peeve of mine. I told him that I listened to you now it's time for you to listen to me. I explained that I had not booked 2 nights, I presented my Expedia app and it showed that I had booked for one. I was charged $256. He aggressively told me that he would not give me a refund because of the ridiculous policy. I grew exhausted of talking to him so I left. He followed me outside and kept running his mouth about how he's right and I'm wrong. I do not recommend this hotel especially if you're traveling with kids.
