Think of this as camping with indoor plumbing (and even that was kind of questionable). Rooms are all non-smoking and all are equipped with ashtrays to tell you that---no wonder they all smell like smoke. No coffee makers or hair dryers—just your basic bed, dresser and small tv. This place works if you’re looking for a cheap place to stay... More

Stayed here for 3 days during the US Open of Surfing (huntington beach). The hotel is convenient enough to hop on 405 or side street to the beaches during traffic hours. A good option when you cant afford $200/night within a few blocks from the beach areas. Huntington beach was only 15-20min drive from the property. Why Im giving this... More

Never stayed in a Motel 6 before and this one didn't make me a fan. I understand that it is a budget motel but why on earth can they include refrigerators and microwaves but no coffee maker in the room? That wouldn't have been so bad but we were "late" getting to the coffee in the "lobby" -- and the... More

We stayed the night here before the Surf City Marathon. It was sufficient. Hot water, clean towels and a bed. No bells and whisles but we didn't pay for those.

This is a low budget hotel. I was in town for wedding, and needed a place close by to crash for one night. Definitely served this purpose. Plus, the staff allowed my to check-in at 12 noon due to my schedule. Free parking. Wifi is $2.95 for 24 hours. I would not have stayed here with my family. Although the... More

Everything worked properly - shower, TV, AC,etc. Front desk clerk offered to make me a fresh pot of coffee for me the evening we arrived.Free coffee every morn @ 7am is nice. Sink was outside of bathroom... More

Let's be honest, I wouldn't spend two weeks of vacation in this motel, but for one night as a stop on my way to San Diego, it was totally worth the price. Close to the 405, restaurants, supermarkets; relatively close to the beach. Of course it's a non-smoking motel now, of course you can still smell the 'smokers paradise', but... More

The Motel was Great! It was close to everything. Food, shopping, entertainment and the beach! The price was certainly cheaper than the surronding motels. The staff was friendly and my room was clean and comfy. This was my first time in Costa Mesa as I traveled there on business. I don't normally stay at motel 6 but as changes were... More

This was an inexpensive clean motel (except for the air), very conveniently located near the highways and fast food chains, and with a nice big swimming pool. The smoking issue is important to us because we were traveling with an infant. However, our nonsmoking wing was occupied mostly by people who smoked in the doorways of their nonsmoking rooms. They...
