Motel 6 Santa Cruz, CA

It’s far from broad walk

Clean

Friendly

Nices

I wouldn’t recommend this place. We got it for a good price but it was still not the best stay. I didn’t feel safe. The rooms smelled of smoke / weed. There seemed to be a homeless community using the car park - I wasn’t threatened but it didn’t make me feel safe with my family. The door didn’t shut properly and I’m not sure the windows did either. It was noisy. The floor was filthy and the bedding wasn’t clean. Dated and uncared for. Choose somewhere else.

Told I was putting a 50.00 deposit down for smoking in room!!! A Week later I received 30.00 back. They said 10.00 each for two dirty towels…I thought towels are included. They need to educate the staff on what the deposit is for. You better not use the towels. They shouldn’t be able to take money from us without informing us first. False advertisement

it’s kind of noisy

Rush our date so the hotel expensive. Otherwise great to stay walkable to the beach n restaurant. Management is polite

First and foremost the cleaning staff (Ladies) were very nice and polite. Parking on the other hand was very limited and ppl were double parked. I know it's out of their control, but ppl were very inconsiderate being noisy at night, along with the issues of the homeless being on grounds.

The guy who helped me checked in was very nice and friendly. The place is 2 miles away from UCSC. Very convenient to the everything but Im also very disappointed with it's cleanliness. I am not a picky person but this time I drew the line. The restroom looks clean but if you look at the details. It needs a lot of scrubbing and dusting. I had to strip the beddings when I left coz I dont want them to put them back for the next guest. There's hair on the white linen and pillows ( human and pet's, I supposed 'coz they're tiny ones). Good thing I always bring my own bedsheet, pillowcases and sanitizing spray. The room is ok but it needs thorough vacuuming as it has crumbs on the floor. I will never book myself at this place again. I go to Santa Cruz atleast 5x a year to visit my daughter and I have never had a situation like this. I did not complain or asked for another room as they are fully booked, it's move out week for the students of UCSC and all hotels are booked unless you want to pay for expensive ones. For the price I payed for this stay, I could've stayed at Holiday Inn, if only it's not a busy week.

I went to the front desk to ask for clening towels no one was there to assist..by luck saw the lady the cleans at later time she took care of it but not at the time i need it

The location was great. The price was kinda high considering the rooms and amenities. The pictures definitely over sold the room. It seems as if they’re renovating slowly and in a shoty fashion. We found better rooms for cheaper after our first night.

That’s ok

Don’t waste your time this place is a pit

Traveling with dogs. Room was fine but not cleaned well: button on floor, penny under desk, desk surface dirty. Beds are comfy, AC works well, mini-fridge and microwave worked fine too. Check-in is through a window, no lobby access. Hard to hear the guy. Overall it's fine enough and the price is right for Santa Cruz.

I didn’t stay in this place, looks scary and rooms to small and the area not good.

quiet

Room hadn't been cleaned in months. Hairs on the sheets, dirt on the floor and under the bed. Unsafe feeling, we were almost hit by an intoxicated driver in the hotel yard and then almost attacked by their dog. Hotel charges $50 deposit. We wanted to cancel upon arrival but the clerk didn't let us cancel the reservation.

Liked the room cleaners. Hospitality was good helpful and bilingual. Transients living on parking lot. Parking lot was filled with trash. Office staff keeps doors closed AT ALL TIMES. inconvenient for people. Trash was outside of room when arriving. Parking is limited for number of rooms. Room floors had lots of hair from pervious guest. Bugs in room , and shower had mildew.

The management and the place was rude and dirty.
