This is by no means a fancy hotel but what we got was very reasonable and served our purpose perfectly. The room was really spacious and it was clean. The beds were very comfortable. There was no ants or dead bugs like some yelpers were saying. The shower worked well and there's even a very spacious walk-in closet. Overall we had a very pleasant and comfortable stay at a very reasonable price.

We wanted a place to stay overnight with my BF who met me there later to enjoy the New Year's Eve! It was disastrous after driving for over an hour to go 15 miles because of the weather Jay at the front desk started to check me in, but noticed that my name from Expedia was under my nickname, but my license is under my real name and I told him I have a card a credit card that has the nickname on it. He started raising his voice and saying he had been duped by a guy who had two rooms because he used a different name...he said if he allowed me in that he would have to pay out of his pocket for the room! I put my head down and disgustrather than fighting with him! What a waste! After about 20 minutes, he finally checks me and gives me a key to a room That was dirty! It scared me that somebody was in there because the door was unlocked and open. I had to go back downstairs in the rain with my luggage and he did not apologize. He just gave me the keys to another room. He walked ahead of me and never offered to help with luggage! Fricking idiot! The hall smelled of pee and the room was slightly better, but it still smelled so I lit a couple candles just an awful awful experience! The owner should know about this, but if they are from India, they are just as bad as their managers because I've had dealings with people from India and I'm not a racist. I love everyone and I've been in technology IT for twenty seven years and some of my best employees are from India and they are professional, and I love working with them, but the people who come here from India to America and manage and own hotels, they bring their caste system with them. This is America dammit one of the most diverse countries in the world and we get mistreated by them but never ever ever again will I stay at a motel or a hotel that is run by people from India with an attitude. Every stay in Indian run Motels in Long Beach (Inn at 50 on Atlantic in Long Beach)Don't stay there either!! there were holes in the screen in the bathroom where somebody had broken in. They're close to downtown Long Beach We should've stayed in Long Beach at the Hilton or the Marriott or the Hyatt, but decided wewould go into LA to be adventurous and bring the new year in. Our plans were to go out for a New Year's dinner and drink but we felt un safe in the neighborhood Do not stay there! I heard a woman screaming like a someone was hitting her and I told him because I was downstairs asking for toothpaste... He said "give me two dollars cash and I will give you toothpaste". What a tool!he said if you don't pay for it and I give it to you, it comes out of my pocket OMG I couldn't wait to get out of there. ...about the woman he said oh that's a woman with children. I said that's not children crying that was her crying like someone was hitting her good Lord.

We stayed on the 7th floor and had a great view of the golf course and even Downyown L.A. the housekeeper Silvia was great she paid attention to every detail and even tucked in my daughter's dolls.

The hotel and rooms are clean, there is a little market and there is a small laundry area you can use. Plenty of parking too. The only downside is that a lot of people stay here, so breakfast buffet was crowded. But I was able to take my food to my room, where there was a table. I appreciated that there was a full size refrigerator, and plates, glasses and utensils. Would definitely stay here again.

Shot out to Ashley M for outstanding service!…read more We're usually used to staying at some of the larger Marriott brands, but we decided to stay here for one night (3/15/26-3/16/26) since we just needed a quick getaway close to home and it ended up being such a cute little hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, but what really made our stay stand out was the service. Everyone we encountered was incredibly sweet and gracious, but ASHLEY M. truly went above and beyond. I had originally asked for a pool view but couldn't really see it from our room. Without hesitation, she said, "Give me a moment," and rearranged things to get us a room with a proper pool view. That alone was amazing, but then I realized I had left something behind in the previous room. Ashley immediately reassured me and had someone retrieve it and bring it right over. She handled everything with such kindness, a smile, and genuine care, it really made a difference. When we checked out, I believe the manager's name was Isaac (I didn't catch it for sure), and he was just as pleasant and professional. You could tell the way the place is run reflects strong, gracious leadership. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. Clean, welcoming, and filled with kind people who truly care. Definitely two thumbs up!

I travel regularly for business and mostly stay with the Marriott brand. I have never experienced…read moreanything this terrible. This stay was far below expected standards in cleanliness & guest care. I would strongly advise against staying here. I endured an extended business stay at this property and from the start, the room was not properly cleaned -- food debris on the floors, a heavily soiled couch with crumbs throughout, and an unsanitary shower head that required replacement. Maintenance issues, including plumbing (foul smelling water) and power concerns, took days to resolve. Housekeeping was inconsistent and often unacceptable. On multiple occasions, floors were not cleaned, sheets were not changed, and visibly stained bedding was placed on the bed. Debris was left behind, including someone else's hair and trash, indicating the room was not properly serviced. Most concerning, I experienced insect activity and developed a significant bite during my stay that is still healing. A colleague on the same floor reported similar issues. This raises serious sanitation and health concerns. Despite multiple reports, concerns were dismissed or inadequately addressed at the management level. Rather than resolving the issues, responses were deflective and unprofessional. I ultimately had to escalate this matter to corporate to receive any acknowledgment. For a Marriott property, this is unacceptable and this establishment is unfit. I would never return to this property.

"The Montebello Hotel That Pretends It's in L.A.--and Honestly, We Let It."…read more Montebello may technically be a short drive from Los Angeles, but this hotel had such strong main‑character energy that it practically whispered, "Don't worry... you're basically in L.A."And honestly, we believed it. A Room That Came Ready for Success This wasn't one of those tiny, "don't breathe too hard or you'll hit the wall" hotel rooms.No -- this room had space, confidence, and the kind of modern look that says, "Yes, I am photogenic." Microwave & fridge -- because reheating leftovers is a lifestyle. Big TV -- the kind that makes you consider staying in instead of sightseeing. Firecube-friendly setup -- zero tech battles, zero remote confusion, zero stress. Plenty of drawer space -- enough to make you feel like you actually live there. We walked in and immediately said, "Oh yeah... this is home base." Location: Close Enough to L.A. to Flex Montebello is like L.A.'s chill cousin -- close enough to the action, far enough from the chaos.And this hotel nailed the sweet spot. Restaurants? Right there. Shopping center? Practically waving at us. L.A. attractions? A quick drive, no drama. Free parking -- which in the L.A. area is basically a love letter. This place didn't just check boxes -- it checked them with confidence. Final Verdict Beautiful hotel. Great location. Free parking. Modern room. Big TV. Firecube-ready.Montebello may not be Los Angeles, but this hotel made the whole trip feel easy, convenient, and surprisingly stylish. We loved the room. We loved the location.And honestly, if Montebello ever runs for "Best L.A.-Adjacent City," this hotel should be its campaign manager.

I paid less than $100 all in and the room was perfectly comfortable. Parking was super easy and free. I could easily order food delivered and meet the driver in the lobby with no issues at all. Front desk gentleman was super nice and helpful. I actually had booked the hotel NEXT door but he offered to match their price and I took his offer. Glad I did. There is a an elevator and the hotel is laid out so that you enter through a central point (the lobby), which I really liked. The room was very clean and had everything you would need. Even a mini fridge! Wifi was good and the AC was strong. No complaints. The bed was a little hard and the pillow situation a bit unusual but I didn't spend the night so it didn't impact me. Another unusual feature - the shower is sort of in the middle of the room with no privacy. It's across from the toilet room (WC), but doesn't have a door. You're just sort of showering in public. So you should really like anyone you're sharing the room with. But for my purposes - which was needing a place to comfortably work and hang out for a day, it was really a nice find that I'd recommend.

This was a horror show. The manager obviously cannot read because he attacked me for having a dog,…read moreeven though I registered with a dog; attacked me for having a second person a room, and I registered for two people. When I attacked, I mean literally attacked. He did not physically attack me, but he screamed and yelled , Even though I explained to him that my guest had PTSD. He didn't care and he completely went ballistic over nothing. When I checked in, I left my drivers license at the front counter. He initially told me that he had it, but after his freak out, he told me that he did not have it and winked his eye. He told me that he was going to shred it and winked his eye again and I never got my drivers license back! It was unbelievable. The manager is completely unhinged and should not be in a position with anything to do with guest relations. It was traumatic and truly awful. When I called Motel 6's corporate number, they referred me back to him so clearly they didn't care and nothing was resolved.

T. F First of all there is no blankets there's two sheets and a really ugly duvet cover and then the biggest disgusting thing ever is there mattress protector was covered in either what looks like poop or blood I have no idea what the heck is on this thing but it is disgusting and the floors are dirty I attempted to call up Chase rewards to understand what the issue was and why it has such a good rating when this place is garbage and then I tried to get hold of the front desk either by calling them or by ringing the doorbell and yet nothing so I had to drive two hours to get back home after already driving four hours from shooting a Wedding up north I did not receive any compensation for leaving the hotel, sadly there was someone else that was trying to check in or get a room and it would've been an easy switch where I wouldn't have minded to pay a cancellation fee and then this motel could've made more money by booking another person last minute but no they were closed and yes I making us insanely long because I was livid having to drive back home This was $110 lesson that I learned
