So initially I was annoyed that I paid $15 more than I did in Sunnyvale, but boy is it worth it. Ceramic tile in the bathroom refrigerator, nice bedding and clean spacious lobby with warm staff. I suppose when I want to splurge again I will definitely stay here again (and it was ten minutes away from my job). More

This is the third time that I have stayed at this motel because of it's central location near downtown San Jose. This will also be the last time. I paid for 2 separate rooms (one smoking and one non-smoking) for about a week. From the first day the odor of marijuana was very strong in the hallway of the upper... More

I've stayed in this motel many times on business, mainly because it's walking distance from the train station and it's cheap. This is one of the better Motel 6 locations, with renovated and updated rooms. The property itself is well kept, plenty of free parking, a pool. Rooms have a king size bed, fridge, no microwave. If you want to... More

We needed a room for one night near a concert we were attending. The desk clerk was pleasant, the room was clean, and there was an interesting bookstore and several adequate coffeeshops and eateries within walking distance. More

Generally for the price you get nice and clean room with microwave and fridge. There is a nice dining are with table by reception (which is not common by... More

VERY VERY basic, and not impressed. I'm not impressed with Motel 6 in general at all. No shampoo or conditioners which most places provide. No blowdryer/microwave/fridge. The room seemed very worn out..cracks and holes everywhere in the room. Also the room was completely invaded with fruit flies....I was disgusted..surprised to not find bed bugs. I had a hard time sleeping... More

Stayed here one night as a stop over point on our road trip of California. Hotel was on the edge of downtown San Jose, which was a decent neigborhood. Hotel itself was very basic (what Motel 6 isn't basic?) but for $80?? Seemed a bit much for this place. Rooms were clean, but there was something about this place that... More

Large room, plush easy chair, comfy bed, all for $59/night--what more could a solo traveller want? This was an Internet rate from the Motel 6 website. Minuses--some trucks and construction personnel, some low income (but friendly) families lodged by Social Services, a small pool, one anonymous bug (having lived in the near-rural or tropical South most of my life, I...
