It’ll do in a pinch, but if you’re upstairs, you’re unsafe
Pros:

It was handy to the marinas and sightseeing along the bay

Cons:

We ended up upstairs and the stairs themselves are marked so poorly. If anyone had site problems, they are at risk of a fall which my husband had one. No one from the motel even came out to ask how he was. He sprained his ankle really well and got a big old bruise across his left shoulder. The floors were filthy.

Didn't meet my expectations
Pros:

Location is safe and 24 min away from Broadway pier where you can take a boat ($18 round trip) and go to the wonderful Coronado Island.
You have a train 7 min away to go to fashion valley and the 992 bus to go everywhere you want.
The lady at the reception was nice and helpful

Cons:

Impossible to sit hours in the bed as it always moves down. My neck and shoulders got hurt.
The small lights don't work, so you have to stay with the main light at night
All the airplanes go by the roof almost every 20 minutes, it's impressive to see how big they are above your head and it's noisy as well.
They take the deposit right away in your bank account and refund it within 4 business days (according to them, I'm still waiting)
It's too expensive and not worth it.
I paid $214+$70 for one night and the deposit, and got out sick because of the bed.

Für Leute, die früh das Zimmer verlassen, ok.
Pros:

Zimmer war gross und ausreichend, sehr gute Klimaanlage

Cons:

Die Lage inder Einflugschneisse des Airport (der auf der anderen Strassenseite beginnt) ist übel, zwischen 0:00 und 06:00 ist Ruhe, aber danach Lärm maximal - all paar Minuten ein Flieger.

I've stayed at multiple Motel 6 lodges, across the U.S. ALL were much better than this one
Pros:

Convenient to the airport

Cons:

Loud bathroom fan, very low water pressure in sink, approx. 15 inch long crack in sink, NO drawers for clothes, shower doors don't close properly, shower floor slippery, no clock, only a single hard chair...

Would never stay again, dirty and no shuttle no breakfast.
Pros:

They were quick at check in and our AC worked.

Cons:

It was close to the airport, no shuttle like mentioned on website so had to uber. There was no breakfast, just black dirt coffee. The beds were soft but the sheets weren’t fresh, they were previously used. Our floor wasn’t swept anywhere in the room, when we looked at the bottom of our socks before bed they were nasty. Our shower had rust in the bottom and on the soap rack. There were no towels anywhere in the room and the ice had a metallic taste to it.

Pros:

There was plenty of parking. I checked in much later than expected, there was no wait or issue.

Cons:

I wish the bed was more comfortable and that the microwave "snack" room was available at night.

Pros:

Közel a part és Little Italy. Megfelelő fűrdőszoba és TV.

Cons:

Szörnyen zajos a hely a repülőtér szomszédsága miatt. Emiatt ablakot nem szabad nyitni. Piszkos kőpadló. Nincs ajtós szekrény.
