The most terrible experience I’ve ever had in Pismo Beach. It was the most dirtiest room I’ve ever been in my whole enti
Pros:

NOTHING !!!!!

Cons:

the staff was very rude. All I did was ask for some towels and they were extremely rude. I did not like my stay whatsoever. I will definitely be staying somewhere else when I go back to Pismo Beach.

Ended up driving home after paying . Better driving home than staying the night
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Run down over overpriced . Should be closed down . Should not be able to use the motel 6 name .only in business to jam people out of a night stay in Pismo Beach area . owners should be embarrassed, no pride whatsoever. but they know exactly what they’re doing.

It's awful do not recommend.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The room was dirty there where toe nails and fake eyelashes on bathroom floor. Pee in the toilet upon arriving and little pieces of candy under bed. The whole room smelled like an old smokers lounge and dog crap all out front in grass. I will never stay at another motel 6 no matter what we ended up leaving without refund and getting an Airbnb.
