Motel 6-Belmont, CA - San Francisco - Redwood City

I arrived around 11:30 ish for check in Saturday, August 16. Staff decent. They were kind/courteous for checking in and out. They lack (or tired of) inform guests the elevator is out of service, still. Nor did the venue fail to mention in description of selecting rooms thru Expedia! I’ve been to this venue a few times for convenience and pricing. The price should be reduced even more. For the negligence of maintenance (elevator), run down of building C, and the roads/pavement conditions driving in at this particular venue. Way too many pot wholes and unevenness! It has been over 2 years now. Unbelievable! Still have not fixed the elevator over in building C. Such an inconvenience hauling my own luggage up 3 flights of stairs! Especially check in this late! Building C dire need for a well long over due make over! Cons: -Elevator still out of commission over 2 years! -Hallways of this building needs to be upgraded. Very dingy and musty. Not well lit. -Rooms need to be refreshed. Very basic. -No mini fridge, a basic coffee maker, or microwave. -Bathroom definitely needs upgrades. -Bathroom sink is more like a hand sink literally. -Shower is very basic and the water is sub par. -No any type of delivery drop off in front of our door! Drop off is in the front desk lobby, in another building! PRO: - A/C works well( in the room I stayed in) -Bed was clean and mattress was comfortable. -Bathroom assorted towels are clean. Building C need desperate attention!

Motel is in very very bad shape. No microwave No fridge in the room. Elevator didnt work and our room was at 3rd floor. No customer service at all. On top of that they have live agent from out of the country so not helping local economy either. Come here only if you want to spend night and leave.

This hotel was very nice for a Motel 6. It's on a large campus spread over 3 buildings, with a nice courtyard in the middle where the pool and hot tub are located. The hot tub was very foamy and looked gross, so we didn't partake, but the hotel itself was nice and the staff we encountered were friendly!

Staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. Laundry room was kept clean. Plenty of parking.

Clean, convenient and inexpensive. Pool and hot tub were great. Check in was easy, staff were helpful.

Nice grounds for walking pets.

Only one of the vending machines worked, no ice, lack of wall outlets was a bummer. All associates were pleasant and helpful.

The hot tub was ice cold like a pool. Very deceiving to list a spa, but have the heat off to it. Many things were broken at the hotel the main door to the hotel was broke so no security there our rooms bathtub would pour out hot water but no cold water it would come out at a drop. Air conditioning did not work in the room. Broken electrical plates. Had to look for a working ice machine as there are no fridges in the room and the first one was not working at all. I definitely don't recommend staying here very disappointed and feel cheated as we booked it to use the hot tub knowing my wife's legs swell up driving that far and that the hot water would swell them down but we could not use the hot tub and could not even use a bathtub to do that.

We enjoyed our stay, especially the pool and hot tub!

Very nice staff, price was right. Elevator needs a different more colorful paint job just an observation. Room was colorful and very roomy, Bed was comfortable. Nice pool and Hot tub. We arrived around 3pm so plenty of parking and the parking lot was Huge. Zero noise issues. Excellent experience, thanks.

Check in went fine. The property is in poor condition and dirty. Our room was disgusting - black mold in the shower and sink- inches from where the toothbrush goes. There was no shampoo. A representative from motel 6 called about an hour after we checksee if we needed anything and offered a room change . We were settled alreafy and declined, as we could not imagine other rooms were betterneeded anything. W

Not that clean, and far away from Caltrain so if you don’t have a car it’s a lot of money on Ubers and it was not that cheap either

Hair in the tub and drips down the mirror. This was an actual improvement over the last time when I called the front desk to complain about a very smoking non-smoking room and was thanked for understanding that sometimes people don't follow the rules. That room also had a broken screen. This time the screaming was a woman in the parking lot chasing after a car that was peeling out at high speed.The price is unbeatable is if traveling with pets but in every other sense it should be a last resort.

The room had urinary smell. The mattress was horrible, which I felt like lying on straws. Building C looks unclean and unsafe. My experience was ultimately horrible. I would never come back again and wanted people to know my experience and avoid this hotel.

We stayed two nights. There were toenail clippings on the floor along with popcorn. I told the front desk immediately. There was nothing they could do except switch rooms. I didn’t want to so they assured me it would be cleaned the next day. Nope, never cleaned. And management couldn’t do anything except give me a 10% discount but I’d have to call Expedia for that. Too much of a hassle.

This hotel is dirty, bed sheets and cover were dirty, bed was shaking, toilet seat was broken and it smells

I've stayed at this particular one a few times And every time the rooms smelled bad and were dirty Which seems to be commonplace with Motel 6 these days

Absolutely the filthiest Motel 6 I have ever stayed in. I called the front desk to complain about the room and the only thing they could offer was for me to leave, with a refund. At first they said the room would be discounted, then they decided they couldn’t do that and we would have to leave if we wanted any money back. Part of the cost of a motel should be paying for a clean room! There were clumps of human hair, dirty socks in the pull out couch and crumbs of food and dirt everywhere. Even a cockroach crawling across the table. They wouldn’t even give us a broom to sweep it ourselves!! Unbelievable, really.

Cockroach’s in the room, chips on the floor, blood on the bathroom walls. 2 rooms down had a party lasting passed 3am and the front desk wouldn’t answer their phone. Do not waste your money here.

Cleanliness is an issue

I had to check in via a computer with a video chat in the lobby. The hotel is run down, the hallways were extremely hot which amplified odors in the hallways. My key would not work in the building door, which I found out after a long day of travel and with all my belongings in my arms that I was trying to take to my room. The room is oddly oversized with furniture that does not fill it up and it is dated. There were people hanging out in the parking lot. I wanted to leave and book another hotel.

It was a cheap hotel. Front desk staff were very friendly. The internet connection kept dropping and the tv was constantly freezing. No fan in the bathroom, no complimentary shampoo, and the sink faucet splashed everywhere. Terrible water pressure. Killed 2 roaches in the bathroom. Walls are thin, and we were put right next to the elevator. There was only 1 outlet in the whole bedroom.

I liked the quite room, the possibility to open the window, the nice tiny bathroom and the convenient bed. I missed the fridge and microwave, the walk to Belmont village and the Caltrain is not nice, the room was too large for one person, the toilet seat wasn't fixed proper, the halls outside the room are very large and don't gives a familiar feeling.

Location and price were great. Yet it was loud in my room. I could hear noises all night long from other rooms. It finally quieted down around 12:30 pm.

The Studio 6, unlike the Motel 6, is in the newer 4 story building, with a little better accommodations. I had a kitchenette, with a full size fridge, Kitchen sink, and stovetop burners. They both use the same lobby and parking. So if you have to stay longer, stay here. Has guests’s coin washers and dryers, too, if memory serves me. Best thing about this place is it has Hobee’s next door for great breakfasts, and it is pet friendly. Otherwise, it is a Motel, not a Hotel. It’s in the name. So keep your expectations low, and it works out better. If you have higher expectations, spend more elsewhere.

The room was adequate and clean, and check-in was fast and easy. However, it was very noisy — the bathroom fan wouldn’t turn off and ran loudly all night, and being right by the freeway with thin windows meant I heard traffic the whole time. There was also a strong fresh paint smell in the hallway. Overall, the hotel was fine for a quick stay, but there are very limited options nearby, so you’ll need to drive everywhere.

Fine for 1 night after flying in from UK. One elevator not working. Could do with a hairdryer in room (available on request) a fridge would have been an improvement as would some shampoo and shower gel. Room was spacious and well laid out. In summary decent for the price

Paper thon walls. Could hear conversations next room over and noise from above.

Internet is HORRIBLE.

I got what i paid for. Although i do feel like they could spring for fridges and microwaves in every room.

Manager went to of his way to find an item I lost. A real likable fella.

Staff is very friendly and courteous.

Great staff

Staff was excellent

The worst experience. Was placed in an ADA room. The room was dirty, linen was old and tattered. When I turned on the shower, it and the toilet flooded. In a panic, I called the front desk and the female employee yelled at me to say “ what do you mean flooding? We don’t have any more rooms for you!” When I attempted to respond, she interrupted to say the same thing. Finally, I was able to explain that 1) I did not need an ADA room and 2) I just wanted to take a shower. I was eventually transferred to another room. My concern is that I had to pay and spend the whole night in a dirty and out of service room. I would like a refund for the first night.

Staff was the best!

Receptionists great customer service

The lady at the front desk was uncooperative.

The stay was fine the check out was terrible, I paid in cash they wouldn’t put my deposit on my card so I had to give cash. I asked the lady at the desk if they would be open at 5am because I leave to work at 5am and needed to get my deposit back. She said they are open 24 hours and it wouldn’t be a problem. Well it was a problem, this morning I went to Check out and the lady at the desk didn’t have a key to get my 100$ deposit back and I had to come back later. Well I don’t go back that way on my way home, I had to leave work early drive 30 miles back to get my money then 30 more miles back the 113 miles home. Then she wouldn’t give me my money until they checked the room so I had to sit around another 15 minutes waiting for that. I will never stay there again. The people are rude and shouldn’t be allowed to even own or work in the motel industry.

I had a wonderful stay at this motel six. The staff is so friendly and kind. I can’t say enough nice things about them.

All in all it was a nice property for the price point. I was pleasantly surprised.

Check in was weird and you check in with a kiosk and a live agent connected to the kiosk so no staff was available right after the beginning of 3pm check in. Property looked to have 4 different buildings and only one of which was new. Got placed in a building on the 3rd floor and the elevator was not in service. Room itself was ok and bed wasn’t bad either. Also just seemed like a sketchy area. Otherwise seemed quiet on a Sunday night.

Simple place, clean, easy parking and decently quiet even though its beside a hwy. Also not terribly far from san fran

Nice place in a neighborhood that feels a bit unsafe.

Not that clean, and far away from Caltrain so if you don’t have a car it’s a lot of money on Ubers and it was not that cheap either

Very well located just off the freeway. Nice staff. Very clean. Only drawback is the property is quite old and has really (really) old single pane windows, some of which don't even quite fully close (like room 317). But definitely good value for the price, as usual with motel 6.

Great for the price and close to Airport!

Easy check in and friendly staff. Two night stay and quiet at night. I will be stay here again when I visit San Francisco in the future.

Good location and the staff were helpful.

It's next to the highway so there's a bit of noise. It's a bit quiet because there are no residential areas around.

Very nice, but no complimentary coffee in lobby. Everything else was okay.

Motel 6 is very, very basic. But the price was right. The room was quite commdious, but there was no comfortabke chair, only 2 school type desk chairs. No coffee maker, but coffee was available in the lobby. Restaurant next door a little on the pricey side.

No frills but nice hotel that offered a quiet room for sleeping. On-site restaurant was good for a filling lunch. Vending room had microwave for heating food. Coffee and hot water rounded out the package.

Clean room, great TV channels and a great breakfast luch restaurant on premises.

This is a Motel, not a hotel, so adjust expectations accordingly. Despite that, the checkin was courteous and efficient, the room was large but spartan, the walls are thin, but pets stay for free, and there is a great breakfast and lunch diner attached to the Motel, called Hobees, a great Silucon Valley small chain for 50 years with good food and service.

Elevator malfunctions. Rooms aren't cleaned daily; they do it every three days, and they don't take out the trash. Restaurant closes at 2 p.m.The room smelled musty. Not recommended.

The Studio 6, unlike the Motel 6, is in the newer 4 story building, with a little better accommodations. I had a kitchenette, with a full size fridge, Kitchen sink, and stovetop burners.

So keep your expectations low, and it works out better. If you have higher expectations, spend more elsewhere.

The water pressure in the sink was insane it flooded the bathroom each time turned on unless slowly turned on to a certain angle. We didn't get soap, shampoo, or conditioner in our room either. It was very well cleaned and the restaurant was PHENOMENAL!!! We went every morning except our last day and never were disappointed.

No breakfast, no microwave, no fridge

Listen its a motel 6, theres no surprises here but the pool AND hot tub are clean, rooms n beds are clean and there is an amazing lil taco truck in the parking lot thats delicious and affordable.
