Sure they have hourly and weekly rates, that kind of place. Staff was nice enough, and when I left at 5am believe I saw 24 hour security, which was reassuring, but next time I'll stay a bit further off the highway, probably in Mill Valley.

The property is in an ideal centralized location, but the surrounding area, which is out of the hotels control, is very seedy. There were domestic disputes that we could hear. It's too bad the area is so ghetto.

So far as motels go, Motel 6 is a great place to stay. It was somewhat updated (e.g., no carpets) and didn't have that old motel smell. The location is a short distance from shops and restaurants. The clerk who checked us in was courteous and efficient.

FRICKIN ROACHES. EVERYWHERE

Well the hotel staff was friendly and helpful. The room felt very second rate, I did not feel safe, there were a lot of hookers outside our door. It's not the Motel 6 we were expecting.

The motel itself was fine it was the outside not very safe at night

Hotel is nice and convenient, parking is a bit challenging as you have to back out of your spot and the parking lot. No frills, decent price.
