Pros: a lot more reasonable than other Long Beach/San Pedro hotels. By hundreds. Good location--can walk to many restaurants. Free WiFi. Staff was nice and held my bags while I explored the area before check in. Decently clean; not as gross as others have said but yes, a bit run down. I think it is on par with budget hotels these days. Room had double lock; felt safe Shower was warm and toilet worked. Bed was okay. Comfortable but could hear the plastic mattress cover right under the sheets when moving about. Cons: No soap. Or shampoo. I've never seen that. My room had no remote. I asked for one. It turned on the sound but no picture. I gave up. No elevator; steps in and steps to many rooms. This was on the website so I wasn't surprised. One pillow per person and one small towel per person. No mini fridge and no ice available. Skunk sprayed outside so room has smelled all day/night (coming in through air conditioner; 1st floor room) Someone has been getting sick outside the room for the past half hour. Daytime had lots of noise from nearby homes, kids, music, banging as though someone was putting up siding All in all, it's safe, inexpensive, and no frills. I am staying one night before a cruise. This is fine for my needs. I would stay here again. Safety and cost are great. Bummers might be one offs, except for the soap. Soap should be provided! read more

Motel 6 - No frills hotel room - Hotels Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We booked this Motel 6 based on the photos and amenities advertised online, but unfortunately our experience was very different from what was represented. The photos used in the listing do not accurately reflect the actual condition of the property. One of our biggest concerns was parking. There is no dedicated hotel parking lot, only limited street parking that is available on a first-come, first-served basis. We were also unable to find a single designated handicap parking space. As the spouse of a disabled veteran, accessibility is extremely important to us. We found the property to be difficult to navigate and not particularly handicap-friendly. We also discovered that many of the electrical outlets were so loose that my husband's CPAP machine could not remain plugged in reliably, which is a serious issue for someone who depends on medical equipment while sleeping. Because of these concerns, we made the decision to cancel our stay before check-in. We actually visited the property the day before our scheduled arrival specifically to make sure it would meet our needs. After seeing the conditions in person, we knew it would not be suitable. Despite providing more than 24 hours' notice and never occupying the room, the property refused to refund our reservation. We are now having to dispute the charge through our credit card company. Had the property been accurately represented online and provided the accessibility features we reasonably expected, we never would have made the reservation in the first place. read more

I have stayed at this Motel 6 before and came back recently for another stay. The rooms are tiny, basically like sleeping in a closet, but it is in a decent enough area. What I will say is they have started charging a $60 deposit at check in that they did not used to charge before, cash or card. Fine. I stayed two days, checked out, the man went in to inspect the room and said everything looked good. But then he started picking up towels, the same towels I used to bathe and dry off with for two days, and started pointing out small stains. Not bleach, not blood, not hair dye. Regular use stains from showering and normal use. This man had the nerve to tell me they could not use those towels anymore and tried to take five dollars off my deposit over a stain on a towel. I have stayed in plenty of hotels in my life from nice ones to budget ones and never once has anyone stood in my face and tried to deduct money over a normal towel stain. That is what washing machines, bleach, and detergent exist for. They were looking for any reason not to give that sixty dollars back and I want anyone planning to stay here to know that going in. Watch your deposit, document everything in that room before you get comfortable, and know that they will pick apart anything they can find to keep your money. They did not want to give it back and it showed. Bring your own wash and dry towels. Don't use that shit. Don't even use the soap. I could have really punched him in the motherfucking face. read more

We were in San Pedro taking the cruise ship next day. We needed to book somewhere close to the port. It must be walking distance to the cruise ship. We google and Motel 6 was one of them. There are not a lot of hotel options in the area. We didn't want to stay in LA due to the rain flood happening during the time we were there and we didn't want issues getting to the shop, The hotel is $110 a night or 150 cad per night. It's not the best. They don't provide shampoo at this hotel. They only have soap. On top of that it's located inside a residential area. The staff was very friendly. The bathroom is very small and it doesn't have ventilation. So the room itself is very muggy after showering. The floor was very slippery when we walked into our room. read more

This place is a total pig sty. Zero parking despite saying there's parking. Can't even call them to cancel a reservation and if their online reservation is down you're completely screwed and they'll charge you for a no show fee as a result. Manager is rude af and was very pleased that I got charged a no show. Customer service is pretty much worthless too. Avoid this place at all costs. Pay extra to go to a motel that actually has customer service. read more

Perfect for just a room, but don't expect any amenities such as ice machine, refrigerator, or microwave. The location is incorrect and in a dangerous zone of the city (9th and mesa) and there's no designated parking space. Overall I had a decent experience but I wouldn't come back unless I desperately need a cheap room. P.S., the motel is also inaccessible for people with disabilities so be wary of that. read more

do not stay here this place needs to be shut down immediately the owner threaten to kick us out after i showed him this disgusting video of the bathroom shower, mold every leeches coming out of the wall read more

If I could give this place a 0 review I would. Its a total dump. Im in the area for a wedding and the hotel my group was staying at was fully booked so I got a room here since it was close. Jesus do I regret it. I booked it for 3 days and I left after one. The bed was moldy, there was no fitted sheet. Just a moldy mattress cover that was covered in hair. When I took a shower I realized the bathroom vent cover was hanging off the ceiling. There was a gap between the wall and the actual window frame and the towls hadn't been changed. They were damp and had hair all over them. The floor, not just the bathroom but around the entire room was damp and wet. Then I saw there was food or something splattered across the walls and ceiling and there were roaches! I couldn't do it. I was disgusted and thank God a room opened up in the hotel the rest of my group was at. The room looked nothing like the picture online and they refused to cancel the rest of my reservation and charged me for the full stay even though I left after a si gle night. Do NOT waste any money or time with this place. I've stayed in some bad motels in my life but this takes the cake. read more

It's a Motel 6. That's really all you need, but here's more. It's not The Ritz, it's not Hyatt Long Beach. It's not $600 a night. The room was small, utterly undecorated, and had nothing extraneous. It was clean, secure, and everything that was there, which wasn't much, worked. The tiny room had a tiny bathroom which featured a sink, hot water, a working toilet, and a clean functional shower. You get soap. And towels. No shampoo or conditioner. So bring your own. The towels were small, a little scratchy, and you get two. There's no spa, gym, ice machine, restaurant, bar, or rooftop deck. The dude at the front desk was social, informed about local restaurants and the neighborhood, and parking which is all street. The neighborhood is mixed lower level income residential and light commercial but clean, well lit, and no signs of gangs, junkies, hookers, or any of the other nonsense mentioned in other reviews. Would I walk around after midnight? No. But neither should you. Room was secure with double locks, and lobby secured for the night. The streets were full of nice SUVs, sedans, big pickups, all in good shape without broken windows, etc. Sure, it's kind of a dump. But it's $100 bucks a night with easy access to Long Beach, Orange County, and LA. The bed was clean and comfortable, the AC was loud but worked great, and the TV had cable with virtually all channels, HBO, and a huge on-demand library. If you don't mind roughing it a bit, don't plan on spending any time in the hotel other than shower and sleep, it's fine. Save the $400 a night for the fancy hotels and put that towards museums, ships, aquariums, sightseeing, restaurants and shows. Going to sleep now. Bye ! read more

You get what you pay for and I had to take the loss on this one. It's extremely difficult parking as there isn't any! The building looks and smells like something expired here, the tiny room was dirty and rust stained ceiling and lights, we looked at it and walked right back out! Run it should not be on ANY booking site as an option to stay. Shame shame shame @Priceline this place should be converted into a homeless shelter read more

I swear I must have jinked myself because I had such a worry free flight to this location and then I got to motel establishment. My expectations were not that high because I knew I was only booking for one night so I could be in town a day before my cruise. I have a travel v-log on YouTube called TravelLikeAnOchieng and on that site I try to talk about travel hacks people could use to elevate their vacation experience within a reasonable budget. As a part of that, I took a chance on giving this Motel 6 a try. Let me start by saying I have traveled the world and stayed in some humble spaces and have to say that this Motel 6 is one of the worst lodging experience I've ever had. Nothing about this place was easy. For example, trying to find this place was hard and its location is deceptive because it's located on a small residential street and their sign is small and place in an awkward place on the building. In addition, one must carry their bags up a flight of stairs just to get to the lobby. This may not seem like a big thing to most, but I have two bum knees and my two small travel bags were too much for me to handle. The interior of the room was most disappointing. Once onside I could literally hear my neighbors conversations all around me and they were not talking too loud. The walls seemed paper thin. In addition, the room smelled like stale smoke. The furniture was scant and dirty and the walls had black scuff marks all over them. In all fairness, there were some redeeming qualities to reference. The floor seemed very clean, the linens on the bed were tight and mostly clean (pillow cases had grey spots on them). And the shower was surprisingly large. More about the bathroom. The decent sized shower does not make up for the under sized bathroom. The sink and toilet were tiny (much smaller than in a cruise ship bathroom). Overall the furniture was functional and not broken, but was extremely dusty and had weird stains on the surfaces. I didn't even want to touch the remote control... In my final analysis, I never thought I would be looking forward to the small confined inner cabin of my cruise ship, but after staying in this dirty, smokey, poorly maintained motel room, I counting down the hours until I check out. Instead of a quiet comfy night in this Motel 6, my stay more resembled a nightmare experience in this Heltel 666! Please spend the extra money for better accommodations if you can afford to do so.

Horrible check out. They won't give my deposit back . They're lying about not receiving my deposit and now the cameras don't work. And they're trying to keep my deposit over one towel. But they're said they never got a deposit. So these are some lying pieces of shit. This place smells terrible and you can tell by the staff. read more

This place is a complete dump. Junkies and shady people stay here. The room is tiny, the room smells like pot or some weird smell. The bathroom is a joke, noises all over the place, there is no parking, what else can I say. I would never stay here again even if it were free. I hate the fact that I had to pay 100 bucks for the night, complete rip off. The guy who gave this place 4 or 5 stars must be an employee, the owner or stupid because his rating is a joke. read more

Rooms are convenient they are small doesn't have a fridge which is not a huge deal but know it's street parking but again was in a cute area, will definitely be going back. read more

Was a very clean and safe Experience! I've enjoyed the upgrades aswell! The new look after remodel turned out great! Cheers!

This hotel should be demolished and put out of business. It is literally a converted apartment building in the middle of a dangerous residential neighborhood. There is no parking which if you think isn't an issue, it is. The area is dangerous and prone to car break ins and there is no street parking. The rooms are tiny and insufficient. The entire bathroom is shoulder width and you cannot get out of the shower without maneuvering the bathroom door and standing on the toilet to escape. I have never seen a worse hotel in my life and I've stayed in some dumps in my day. It's cheap for a reason- because it's dangerous, dirty and unsafe. read more

I was a guest off-and on, at this Motel 6 from May 2023 to August 2023. I sincerely regret that when I recently fell into homelessness, I had to leave my two, 5-month-old kittens on the premises. I thought perhaps some trusted individuals would look out for them as discussed, but that did not happen. Although my kittens had flea collars on them which should've indicated to somebody that they were loved and being cared for, they were harmed. Someone told me that green fluid was observed coming out of one of my kittens' mouth before he died underneath a shed out back. The other kitten became lethargic, I was told, and could barely walk and hadn't been observed on the premises, as usual. Just today, did I learn that my second kitten also, in fact, died. I've learned a hard and fast lesson with this experience, and I shall not forget it for the rest of my life. It's apparent that some people are just downright cruel and hardly anyone looks out for anybody else these days. We live in heinous, demonic times, especially now. I shutter to think that whoever did this was a Motel guest , but in all likelihood, he or she or they could've been. I just don't know. I do know that the kittens were killed, more than likely with drugs or with poison. My overall rating for this Motel remains at three (3) stars. The room furnishings are rated four (4) stars. The current staff gives their best. By the way, the timelines assigned to my previous comments are not entirely accurate as shown. read more

The room is cute. Good for solo travelers not so great for families. Parking is first come first serve. The manager/owner is a nice enough fellow but needs a little work on his customer service. read more

If I could give ZERO stars I would for this Motel 6 in San Pedro. This place looks like a crack house. It's so smelly and dirty! My friend from London was staying there, and the guy at the front (owner?) refused to give her a new card key when the magnetic strip stopped working. He blamed her apple watch for de-magnetizing the key card and was yelling at her. She had to call the police! And, still had 3 nights on her reservation paid (her reservation was for 9 nights). She didn't feel safe and moved to a different hotel. She's still waiting for a refund from the owner for the nights she didn't stay there. There was a sheet of plywood on the wall downstairs over a big hole in the wall on the 1st floor. The window was cracked and duck taped. Seriously, felt like a crack house. And smelly! read more

Amazing spot! Housekeeping and front desk was so kind to us and our dogs. Couldn't be more appreciative of how the treated us here. After a long drive across the country it's nice to relax at a safe place and be treated so well. Couldn't be happier with our experience read more

No refrigerator. No microwave. No ice machine. Front desk "closes" at like 10:00pm and doesn't reopen until 9:00am, so if you lock yourself out of your room in the middle of the night, you're out of luck. They tried to keep part of my deposit, accused me of leaving "dog feces in the room," even though my dogs hadn't gone to the bathroom at all in the room- not once. They wouldn't provide the corporate phone number, or the name of the front desk employee, for me to call and make a complaint. The "manager" is arguing with someone every single morning, screaming at people, constantly making false accusations. He's extremely rude- when my key stopped working, he got super annoyed with me and told me to "stop roaming around" and to "stay in my room." He talks to women in a very condescending manner and treats them like they're children. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone if they paid me. It's a total waste of money. They have those febreeze plug ins behind the beds to try and act like the place is clean and smells good- just a poor attempt to cover up how crappy the place is. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY. It's in a crappy part of town- NOT FAMILY FRIENDLY... definitely NOT a good place to stay for tourists... spend a few extra bucks and stay at the Crowne Plaza or the Doubletree. Trust me. read more

If 0 stars was possible on here I would leave it. Overall bad experience. We ended up staying all of 10 minutes due to the doors in the room being kicked in, the floors being covered in debris. There were bugs on the bed and when we notified the staff they came in and brushed the bugs off the bed and told us it was fine. And the cherry on top was the manager insisting that we not to leave a review. I try to give places a chance- don't judge by its cover and all- but no. Do not try read more
