Reviews for Motel 6 Newport Beach
Review 1:there was nothing wrong with anything
Review 2:this was awesome place. great room good value not far from why I was staying there. biggest plus was I got a upgrade for free so anything im in that area of socal again I will be staying there again. a+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Review 3:Downstairs was the logical choice, but make no mistake there is little insulation, so sound travels. Upstairs occupants didn't come alive until after 10pm both nights. To do over again, I'd brave the stairs for an upper floor room. Large item left in room was not turned in to lost & found :(
Review 4:Clean & well kept! Updated decor. Gentleman at check in was very helpful and courteous. We were out of our home for termite tenting...very stressful. Was happy to have a clean pet friendly place and a nice smile to arrive to. Thank you! Dining area was great w/mini fridge & microwave. Spacious room.
Review 5:We found one of the staff members to be rude - he was very blunt with severely lacking customer service skills. For example; "hi there, the internet doesn't seem to be working..." To which he replied, "well it works fine for me." We also ordered a package to be delivered and I had to tell him to look - he just said no he didn't "think" it had been delivered. Stupid things like that.
Review 6:The hotel was clean and the room came with a fridge and microwave. stater Bros is a 5 minute walk which is brilliant - turn left out of the hotel and keep going - the grocery store (Stater Bros) will be in front of you as you cross the road. Public transport is an issue, but close by. If you want to get to Huntington Beach, you have to get 2 busses. Long Beach, 3, Balboa, 1, but there is a LONG wait between each one. Best off with a car. Nice enough area. Some staff members are helpful. Washers and dryers available but generally get your change elsewhere as one staff member doesn't like giving you change. Vending machines available, pool okay. Cleaning staff nice.
Review 7:The coffee in the morning was undrinkable Motel 6 doesn't provide shampoo
Review 8:Dog-friendly policy Clean, neat and handsome, yet spartan decor Nice pool Great value
Review 9:No shampoo provided in the room or available from the from desk requiring a trip to the store, an inconvenience. First time I have experienced this in my travels.
Review 10:Good value for money
Review 11:AC is leaking No Ironing machine, I asked for one and they didn't have any available. A day after I asked again and they handed me one without a board. AC is leaking. No shampoos or Conditioner. After cleaning the room they did not put new towels or soap!!
Review 12:Extremely noisy, a ridiculous small bed. Why do people sell a small single persoon bed as a two persons? Bed was 1,80 meters long, or short! Very unfriendly and unprofessional staff. Would never ever recommand this motel to anyone
Review 13:Clean room, good wifi
Review 14:By 3:00pm when we got back they hadn't cleaned our room, then whenasked they wanted to kick us out at 4:30 with no where to go we justtook towels and lived with the dirty room ?
Review 15:Mo desk clerk was great
Review 16:The freeway noise disturbed my sleep in the early morning. The Wi-Fi was so slow as to be considered nonexistent. The front desk clerk's level of help was to tell me that it worked just fine for him.
Review 17:The room was clean. I like that it had laminate floors instead of carpet. The bed was comfortable.
Review 18:Busy night on a Thursday, lots of young people in the parking lot. Had two vehicles but only able to park one within motel lot, per the motel staff. The other vehicle had to sit on a not so desirable street.
Review 19:hot tube close to room. Room was big, bed was big. Close to where we had to be in the morning.
Review 20:Overpriced for motel 6 the room was tiny and the beds was extremely hard and very uncomfortable to sleep on. The fridge was more like a freezer everything froze in it. The towels are too rough luckily I brought my own. There were also Very loud neighbors drinking outside my room door.
Review 21:The staff were very helpful and friendly!
Review 22:I didn't like the parking situation too much and i would not hang out in the hallway as a single woman .once in the room i felt safe
Review 23:I liked that it was quick...convenient and an ok price. I also had a good night's sleep
Review 24:They canceled our reservation and we learned it when we come to the hotel. They charged a little more for booking same room. It wasnt fair. I dont recommend this hotel if you dont want to surprise with cancelles booking.
Review 25:I book through you guys always and the last two times I booked two queens and ended up with a king bed one time and queen the other. The manager was kind enough to upgrade to a king without additional charge because I am a regular customer. Upset that your website shows two beds for a double but means double occupancy not double queens,last two months I don't get what I book. Yet I stay the same place with the same bookings???
Review 26:I love this hotel and the staff are great. Clean and good location and awesome price. Quiet at night no riff raff.
Review 27:Nothing ! Everything went well!
Review 28:Enjoyed my stay there.. close to Newport beach by 20 minutes.. originally I requested for double room because it was planned for just me and my hubby and dog.. at last minute my son decided to come.. I checked in with mac the manager at motel.. he was awesome to accommodate my family to two bed - room at last minute with little price difference. I appreciate him working it out for us at last minute and during their busy season. Thanks mac the manager!! beds were comfortable and room was spacious and clean.. plus close proximity to gas stations,quick eats, liqueur stores etc..
Review 29:The pillows were so fluffy, I wanted to take them home lol, we loved the tv and channel availability and the proximity to excellent restaurants and activities.
Review 30:Only downside was some scetchy individuals hanging around the hotel drinking beer leaning their doors open smoking pot and being lewd. May not be the best place for sensitive families
Review 31:Staff was very friendly and accommodated us with extra blanket and pillow for our 8 y/o. Will be back for future vacations.
Review 32:Parking is tight, getting there earlier is best but they'll accommodate you despite that. Cost for washer/dryer was a lil pricey (my opinion) but they have a laundromat down the street.
Review 33:Conveniently located right off the freeway; twenty minutes to the beach or to Disneyland. Rooms were spacious, beds were comfy despite being doubles only, and the TV channels are great! PRETTY AWESOME VALUE!
Review 34:The pool closed at 10pm, and our late arrival prevented us from using the jacuzzi. Also, no breakfast...only coffee.
Review 35:The room, from the beds to the TV and the in-room refrigerator were excellent.
Review 36:The only negative was the lack of nearby catering and drinking establishments which were open post 9pm.
Review 37:Staff were very good being helpful in providing extra pillows and ensuring our room was adjacent to friends who were also staying. Parking was easy and accessible. The communal outdoor pool was very welcome given the heat. The check in and out was also very straightforward. Generally excellent value for money.
Review 38:We found a drug needle in the parking garage and saw someone being arrested in front of the building during our stay.
Review 39:The room was clean, nice floors, good colors. Being in the back of the building was quiet. The cleaning staff was very nice.
Review 40:It was too noisy--even into the wee hours of the night on a Wednesday, and there were not enough towels.
Review 41:I liked the style of the room and that it was very clean.
Review 42:There was no coffee in the rooms I would've appreciated that. I get up at 4:00 am and drink my coffee. Next time I will bring my travel coffee pot. We did get coffee from the lobby.
Review 43:When we check in the clerk was very nice he told us everything we needed to know about the room Internet and all the amenities that comes with our overnight stay. The room was clean and very roomy and updated. The price of the room was very reasonable. When you're in Newport Beach we will stay there again.
Review 44:What I disliked is the taste of the coffee and noise made by some guests even at night. The hotel should have switches for the plug points particularly the fridge so that one can save electricity if not using them.
Review 45:The good part is that staffs were really cooperating and helpful. The location is quite good. WiFi was very fast and available without any disruption. Quite a range of channels were available on the TV. The pool and spa was nice too.
Review 46:The rooms where super clean, hardwood floors, and state of the art furniture. The bed is super comfortable and they had a laundromat where we washed our clothes after a long day of fishing. Family oriented, great friendly owners, and no party animals. Just a beautiful place with a underground parking as it being motel 6 very impressive
Review 47:Fairly quiet. Room at the back cut down on traffic noise from Newport Blvd. Really like the remodel you did a few years ago so this is my go-to motel in Newport.
Review 48:Very clean, centrally located. We went to a wedding in Laguna Beach and a graduation in Huntington Beach and this location was perfect. The staff were kind and helpful.
Review 49:Bed hit the wall when we where "jumping on the bed" felt bac for the people next to us.
Review 50:Wasn't much to say it was cheap and they didn't charge for the dog.
Review 51:Not really a complaint, but we had asked for maid service while we were out and we didn't get it so we had to go down and get our clean towels ourselves.
Review 52:I liked the free WiFi, nice TV with cable, room was roomy and the bed was pretty comfortable.
Review 53:i've stayed here many,many times. The staff is never friendly but the price generally makes up for it. This time however I was greeted at check in with "Sit over there I'll get to you in a couple of mintues" It seems it was shift change even though i was there after the 2pm check in time. I was assigned a room which I went to and it hadn't been cleaned. I called the front desk and they said "I'll change room for you" So I dragged all my luggage from the back of the motel to the front office was reassigned a very nice room. Went to take a shower after a long day and there was no hot water. At checkout I mentioned this to the front desk person he shrugged and said " I will let the mgr know"...no apology I mentioned I felt I should get a discount on the room since I couldnt shower he said " Ill tell manager" Not sure if they had a owner change or what but I probably wont stay there again which is a shame as I generally stay there approx 4 times per year.
Review 54:nice room overall
Review 55:When I first tried to check in the staff was absolutely rude, the room was book for business and paid by a business card that we did not have with us, so the staff refused to give us our room. Then made both of us have to give them our IDs when the room was booked only under my name and the other party wouldn't arrive for a few hours. I had to wait outside in the cold for 2 hours for the other guest to arrive before they let us check in. Then they made a huge deal because the business credit card did not say either one of our names on it, it's a business credit card it doesn't have anyone's Name on it come on! Then they proceeded to harass us even more about why we there? Absolutely the worst customer service I have ever encountered I do not recommend this hotel to anyone. Unless you intend to not deal with the staff at all.
Review 56:Nothing.
Review 57:It was a little noisy on Saturday night. Seemed like there was a party goin on. But i that they put an end to that as well
Review 58:Its reliable, well located and i like the people that work at the front as they know me well
Review 59:The room we were in, was near the maids area, laundry room, vending machines and a smoking area. Which made it very noisy the entire visit. We reserved a queen bed, but received a full size bed which was very uncomfortable and small for my husband and I.
Review 60:It's located close to the freeway.
Review 61:Danish was stale.
Review 62:This is the 2nd time here and both times it was great. Had a booking confusion, but they fixed it without hassle. Comfortable, Clean rooms, pet friendly too. We were in town for the pet expo.
Review 63:Underground parking clearance was low so all SUVs/Trucks had to use the regular lot which was full late at night.
Review 64:Location is very good to all freeways and motel was pretty quiet considering number of units and the configuration of the property. Dog owners were considerate and kept their dogs quiet and cleaned up after them.
Review 65:The evening guy in the office was almost rude. We asked for a couple extra pillows (we only got 2 flat ones) and without explanation, told us we could only have 1. He was very straight faced and to the point. Not very hospitable. The room was ok, but the bright orange background doesn't really scream comfort when you first walk in. The blankets were light for my liking. Everything was fairly clean, but some remodeling and new towels (and pillows) would make a world of difference in this place.
Review 66:Most of the staff was friendly, room was easy to get to, and really good pizza place next door. Location was good just off the freeway, but not too much in the immediate area.
Review 67:Still a cheap and somewhat shady hotel feel. There were about 5 police cars the morning I checked out apparently there talking to a guest. No drama but it happened! But i never felt unsafe at all - it's fine.
Review 68:Front desk owner was really nice. Easy access and good location. Good value for pricey area
Review 69:very clean for pet-friendly place; convenient parking; WIFI actually works; clean floors that are mopped; smells clean; clean towels; A/C works; heater works; television works; comes with a microwave and refrigerator that works; smells clean, feels clean; bright and airy; convenient location; well-worth what you're paying.
Review 70:Iron available at front desk. No alarm clock in room. One small table bolted to wall. WiFi ok for basic websites but streaming was not that good.
Review 71:Good location if you have a car. Some reviews say parking lot is small but it's fine. Saw trucks parked in some spots. Friendly staff. Good price. Basic room but has fridge and microwave. Ok bed. Outdoor pool. My room was clean. Hardwood floor was a nice addition.
Review 72:Guests' dogs peed all over the staircase.
Review 73:Clean room, good location. Normally to pricey for the value but Newport Beach is expensive, so this is probably okay.
Review 74:The selection in the vending machine. They offered cup of noodles but no utensils to eat with
Review 75:I liked the promptness in cleaning and arrangement of the room.
Review 76:The pool area was a bit unkempt, but everything else was clean and professionally cared for.
Review 77:The check-in was the friendliest I ever had. Very nice staff, easy parking.
Review 78:I didn't like that there was no coffee maker or hair dryer. There were no Kleenex in the bathroom. The beds were extremely hard and the towels were very rough.
Review 79:I liked the location and the hospitality of the manager. It was very clean.
Review 80:The room was dirty: the bed and pillowed were dirty with hair. The bathroom tub was stained. The towels in their cute cubby holes wouldn't come out without the entire organizer coming off the wall. No hair dryer, no in room coffee. No extra blankets, and the outside common areas need to be repainted/resurfaced.
Review 81:The location was convienet, and the pet friendly-ness was a huge plus.
Review 82:expensive for a motel 6, orange walls, parking lot really full, no breakfast,
Review 83:Great location, free wifi, pool, good tv channels, no bugs, quiet, rooms smelled clean, elevator, laundry facility
Review 84:The only problem we had were the people above us were too loud but security dealt with that very quickly.
Review 85:Close to the beach, the staff was helpful and friendly, the decor was fun and modern, room was clean and spacious.
Review 86:The walls and the exterior door don't seem to have any soundproofing. You could hear anything said in the hall. There were some very noisy people staying there that woke me up coming in loudly in the early morning and some kids running up and down the hall talking and giggling. To be "green" according to their notice, I hung my towels up every day. They were still changed every day, anyway. Nice, but annoying.
Review 87:It was within 10 minutes drive to Sur La Table in Newport Beach where I was taking cooking classes. There's an excellent Moroccan restaurant, Marrakesh, just down the street from the motel. It's an easy drive to Fashion Island Mall and Balboa Island to shop, sight-see, eat.
Review 88:the staff was rude somebody came in and claimed they smelled smoke and the staff was rude to them saying they were busy with other customers instead of checking out a potential problem. was rude to myself and other customers seem like they did not want to be there
Review 89:The staff saying they are out of rooms. When the customer is trying to pay fir another night. The staff/management lie saying that they are sold out!
Review 90:Area
Review 91:No hair dryers or dressers in the rooms. Only a tiny closet. No continental breakfast either
Review 92:Wood floors and clean rooms. Newer bathrooms. Donut shop within walking distance. Super close to tons of dining and beaches!
Review 93:No comfortable chair to sit in and relax to watch TV. The room could really use a place to sit besides the very hard wood chairs at the table.
Review 94:Renovated rooms
Review 95:There wasn't any tissue so I had to use toilet paper and the bottom of the bathtub was pretty worn out and needs replaced. And the water pressure .. Well there wasn't any lol
Review 96:Best looking motel 6 I've ever been to. And I love that they have hard wood floors
Review 97:The motel is located in an unfriendly neighborhood and the guests here are not the type of people you want to be sleeping next to. Brought a friend to our room with us one night and received a call from the manager at 2am screaming at us saying he was going to call the cops on us and kick us off his property because he had us walking into our room with an extra guest on camera. Needless to say we checked out the next morning. I wouldn't recomend this hotel to ANYONE.
Review 98:The bed was uncomfortable and the pillows were very flat. The towels were also very thin and scratchy.
Review 99:The staff was extremely friendly and helpful and the room was very clean. Great location for our stay.
Review 100:Gotta be careful where they put you. First night was in the 3 story building. Extremely loud. In one room there was a couple shouting and fighting and in another they were having a party. Seems like they will rent a room to just about anybody.
Review 101:Wifi is pretty good and the staff is nice.
Review 102:went on a trip to California from AZ so I reserved a hotel online. I was a little worried about what I'd find when I got there But I was impressed. The room was cleaN And spacious . We had a microwave and a fridge. A flat screen TV. Wi-Fi. I had my husband and 2 small children with me and it was perfect for us. The beds were comfortable and clean . The wood floors were definitely a better idea than carpet. We stayed up stairs in the very back. Room 328 . The elevator was very accessible from there, it took us straight to the parking garage, where we parked. We were even able to do laundry before we left in the laundry room on the property. Overall this was a very nice motel 6 I would definitely stay there again.
Review 103:I have states in Motel 6 before and it was not a goodbexperience. But, wow! What a pleasant surprise at this location..all was tremendous. Your staff was outstanding. The room was beautiful and very comfortable. I recommend that Motel 6 uses this property as their poster model and for the criteria to achieve excellence in all your present and future locations. Thank you for such an enjoyable experience. James Bond
Review 104:TV wasn't very well working. Difficult to change and turn on.
Review 105:I really liked how quite it was, not many disruptions, the bed was very comfy and the hotel room itself was very comfy!
Review 106:The managers kept turning away customers wanting to stay a 2nd night- saying they were sold out. So I made a reservation with booking.Com- they denied me to stay there ever again.??? I've been staying here for years? I don't know why? My friend and I were alseep by 8pm and slept all the way until 10am. Discriminated against me the 2nd night
Review 107:It was very close to places I needed to be close to.
Review 108:The overall standard is very basic. The refrigerator was not clean. Please wash the pillows and use bigger pillow cases, that can be closed. A couple of nights, the AC from the neighbours was very noisy.
Review 109:The location was good, the price was fair and the free internet worked very well. Our room on the last floor, towards the back of the building, was quiet.
Review 110:I would have appreciated if the Staff would have taken note of my Booking.com requests and actually honored or acknowledged them, e.g. upper floor and late check out. The panel floors are a nice touch since I'm asthmatic, however, the upstairs neighbors late hours walking around heavy footed in hard heels often interrupted my sleep.
Review 111:Location.
Review 112:The hotel was loud, you could hear everything going on from people talking to what shows they were watching on TV. We had a late check in and the staff seemed annoyed. Our room was towards the back and the room didn't have a bathroom fan so the whole room got steamed up with one shower.
Review 113:Close to Newport Beach and University of Irvine Room was clean and modern
Review 114:Wifi worked sometimes. No alarm or clock no hair dryer. No iron or board no coffe pot in room. Office was a distance to get coffee after first cup you won't go for a second cup
Review 115:Room was clean
Review 116:no exhaust fan in bathroom, really no ventilation, towels like sandpaper, some softly might be nice,, not enough maps and tourist if available in reception
Review 117:big room , quite, pool and spa, helpful staff, although very busy, perhaps better coffee facility, pretty terrible , maybe some cookies and fruit might be nice and invest in a decent coffee machine and some bottled water in rooms
Review 118:Would have enjoyed relaxing in a typical soft (room) chair to watch television from and walls void of any type of pictures gave a clinical feel.
Review 119:Bed was comfortable, shower exceptible, walk-in closet spacious. Fridge/ Freezer kept cold & frozen items just right though should have been defrosted inside and out (ice build up outside top under microwave).
Review 120:front desk clerk was less than friendly (though the guy checking me out was great), the Wifi was spotty, the walls were thin (could hear the guy next door snoring) and no shampoo included with bath amenities...
Review 121:The motel had easy on/off freeway access, ample (and free) parking, a decent flat screen TV and an on-site laundry. Even a fridge in my unit.
Review 122:Room key expired before check-out time so while loading car had to go office to have it reactivated in order to retrieve remaining luggage from room.
Review 123:Owner/Manager was friendly and easy to work with.
Review 124:person running desk when arrived didn't say much nd not very inviting... But did seem to have a bad cold and was coughing a lot looked like he should of have day off but we understand that situation. Pool and hot tub are pretty useless, but ur not there for thay when beach is a short drive anyway. Not much to dislike really for the money
Review 125:location was good if you have a car, about a 10min drive to Balboa and Newport beaches, shops, piers. Compared to others in area a great value. Rooms are very well sized modern and quite clean. It's an older building but they have renovated it well. We booked for a queen room and received a king at no charge. Very nice!
Review 126:Would be nice to have some tea/coffee making facilities in the room.
Review 127:Brilliant value for money. For all intents and purposes, this felt like a proper 3* hotel rather than a motel. King room was extremely spacious, could easily accommodate 2 adults and one kid sleeping in the same bed.
Review 128:To many dogs animals etc. Frequent weed smoke. Cigaret smoke throughout. Moderate police visits. Lot of transient visitors. Management smiles in your face but lack professionalism and consistancy. Second worst hotel we have ever stayed as a family.
Review 129:Location and value...
Review 130:Nice friendly staff. From check in to check out, staff made accommodations to help make my stay more comfortable and pleasant. I had a change in my itinerary and staff - particularly Mo - helped handle the change with little fuss. Nice place.
Review 131:Noisy neighbors, thin walls. Wish theyd put children and younger persons on bottom floor. They can and will make too much noise often
Review 132:Like the price and the owners. Friendly to me. Consistent rooms, hardwood floors and and clean
Review 133:Only negative thing to say is the walls are so thin. You can hear your neighbors talk, watch tv, or whatever else they're doing. Other than that, about 4 miles from the coast. Will come back
Review 134:Rooms are really nice because they have been renovated. Staff was friendly and the room was clean.
Review 135:I honestly loved it I went to Cali I wasn't trying to spend much but I also didn't want to stay an ugly hotel, I can honestly say very clean nice I loved it and will be returning.
Review 136:Please beware of charges!... Look at your statement and make sure youare charge what you agreed on. As of now I have a $80 charge to my debitcard God knows for what?... I have emailed the managers becauseApparently none of the workers know why. Such a shame. Please be awareof extra chargers, and report it right away, don't wait!
