Try a different option

Smallest Motel 6 room I’ve ever stayed in. Thin walls, you can hear every bump, thump and footstep. One of the pillows smelled like urine. The sink faucet handle was jammed against the small shelf above it so you had to force it open. Bed felt cheap and uncomfortable. Staff was friendly.

We have stayed regularly at this Motel 6 over the years and have always had a good experience. Everyone is helpful and friendly, the rooms are super clean, and they have done some upgrades in recent years, so the rooms' color scheme is less orange and white and more muted greys/black/white. It's really nice !! Close enough to the freeway for some of the traffic noise to filter through, but the reasonable cost is worth it.

Good value though small rooms, good availability of facilities, and clean. However, there is no insulation in the walls, the pipes run through the walls, and there is no weather stripping on the door, so you can hear everything all night long (every time someone in a neighboring room runs the tap it wakes you up). Also the pillows are pretty uncomfortable. I would say, if you have to stay here, be sure to bring earplugs.
