My boyfriend and I wanted to stay in the city for a decent price. This Motel 6 was perfect! The rooms were clean, it was a nice walk to the harbor, resturants, and the trolley. We stayed for 5 nights and each night walked the short distance to the Gaslamp District for dinner and to go out at night. The... more

I and my husband stayed at this hotel in late March 2008. OK, the hotel is not a luxyry establishment, but is great value when it comes to location and price per night! The room was a nonsmoking room, clean and the staff very polite and helpful. They have parking just outside the door, which is free for hotel guets.... more

We were on a "winter break" trip and wanted to stay in the downtown San Diego area. After searching and researching, we decided to take a chance on this place. The location was good and the reviews on this site were acceptable so "we went for it". Overall, we were pleasantly surprised. The room was small but comfortable, and the... more

Hotel is conveniently located in the downtown area. It is close to the Little Italy Quarter. It has ample parking. There is elevator access, laundry, and ice / vending machines. It has a nice view from the third floor. The room we stayed in needed just a little tender loving care. Nice atmosphere, but there was a little problem with... more

You get a room with a bed, a bathroom, a counter area with sink, a/c and a tv, and thats about it. its on the bottom of the scale, so expect that going in and you're fine. the staff was very nice to me & my wife. the parking is a small lot, but its free with your room. the... more

On the plus side, this hotel is cheap for its location. It's close to downtown and the freeway. The room was small but otherwise clean. On the downside, I didn't really feel safe while staying here. On the first night, there was a girl passed out across the sidewalk entrance to the parking lot. On my last night there was... more

I found this hotel pretty easily even though Downtown is a little tricky to drive in with all those one way streets. It didnt look like your typical Motel 6, it was a nice 4 story building with palm trees with a spanish type theme. I was impressed with the looks of the lobby and outside. When I got to... more

We stayed at the Motel 6 for almost one week in March 2007. We wanted something cheap, clean, respectable and close to major attractions. We got it all. PROs: - The location is excellent. Within walking distance to most tourist attractions. We walked to the gaslamp district, harbour, horton plaza, the park, and the main trolley station. - The price... more
