Have stayed here numerous times. However, this time was disappointing. Although the room was clean, the motel was quite noisy. The first night someone was banging on our door at 2 a.m. The next morning a woman was getting arrested in the parking lot! The next night there was a large party of people hanging around on the grass outside... More

We chose this property to stay in one night for my husband to run in the Carlsbad marathon. It was perfect for a one night, just need a bed and a shower for cheap, stay. Noise from the freeway was minimal, but you could hear other (rude) guests coming in late at night, and my husband said he was awakened... More

As far as Motel 6's go in the Carlsbad area this one is the worse one to stay at. Rooms are small, poor decor, and not what one would normally expect when staying at a Motel 6. The property is run down and out dated, room stunk, noise from highway even in a room facing away from I-5 was still... More

As seniors on a tight budget, we wanted to enjoy the beach with our granddaughters. This hotel met our expectations and more. We knew the rooms would be small because we've stayed here before ~ but we basically only needed a place to shower and sleep. The whole hotel was very clean and well maintained~ beautiful but simple landscaping. Our... More

The property is well kept and clean. The room was a typical M6 interior. Since M6 is dog-friendly and don't charge extra, we usually overlook it's no frills rooms. However, in our room, you could hear the shower/bath water in the room next to us which seemed louder than normal. Our room was also on the second floor next to... More

Went there to run the Carlsbad Marathon and needed something close to the startline. I was tired of paying over $100 for rooms, so I chose this Motel 6 for the price and location. My husband and I had a great stay! The room was very clean, the shower looked fairly new and nice. The bed was extremely comfortable, especially... More
