What guests think

Reviews of Studio 6 Suites San Ysidro CA San Diego South Bay describe a budget stay with very friendly front-desk staff and a convenient location near the border and outlet shopping, but with frequent complaints about cleanliness, noise, and maintenance.

Rooms are basic; some have been updated and include a fridge and microwave, but many reports cite thin walls, squeaky beds, and HVAC or hot-water problems. Cleanliness is inconsistent, with multiple reviews mentioning dirty floors or linens, moldy odors, and occasional pests such as cockroaches or bedbugs. Service is often praised as friendly and helpful, yet some guests reported reservation issues and delays or disputes over deposits and refunds. Expect a no-frills stay with kind staff but variable room quality and cleanliness.

Upon arrival we saw many cockroaches in the bathroom. We ended up keeping our luggage in the car in the fear that they would get in and return with us. We also had to keep the lights on the keep them from spreading around to our sleeping area. It made for an unpleasant night of sleep.

I stayed here because there wasn’t a lot of bad reviews and I needed something quick and cheap. Learned my lesson and won’t be doing that again. It’s very very close to the border so it’s really ghetto all around. But it’s a Motel 6 what can you expect? When we went into the room to unload our things, my kids took off their shoes and ran around the room. The room has vinyl wood floor. Both my kids feet were black, the floors were so dirty. Also we couldn’t deadbolt the door because the door frame had a visible gap towards the bottom. Made us feel a little unsafe especially at the location we were at. When I reported this to the manager the next morning, he barely paid any attention to me. He seemed upset at me, which is crazy.

What a terrible experience…. The “good” reviews are absolutely fake and this property couldn’t care less about our poor experience. The A/C had a terrible moldy smell and the bathroom had huge spots of mold! Never again!

Great price. They come with mini fridge and microwave which is always good. We didn't like that it was big dogs inside the room next to us barking and that we stayed for 2 nights and didn't do the beds or replaced towels

The bed frames are super cheap. Very noisy. I mean you barely move and it's squeezing. The walls are very very thin. I couldn't sleep well because the guy in next room over was snoring and the other side people were conversating all night. Noise from second floor was non stop all night. When anyone turns water on around your room it's very loud too! They are charging way too much for this place. It was clean though

All I needed was to sleep for the night booked through Expedia got there said it was for the 16th it was baby I needed a room then at 2am not 3pm he said he would make the change but expedia has to call them except they had Expedia blocked so when the agent tried to conraxt them no call went through do they wouldn’t refund me or change it for me and when someone finally got through the next day the hotel still refused to refund me even though they had expedias number blocked front desk guy seemed shady and seemed like he deliberately was trying to avoid the situation to get me to have to pay for a room all over again would not recommend

Room was not ready until 6 pm when check in says 3 pm, several customers complaining in line, manager was “not in”… once in the room floor was dirty and my room said bathtub… it was a regular shower, we called and they said even if we had one we couldn’t give you the room, manager is not here… why on earth would I need to wait for a manager for receptionist to change my room when I payed for a room with bathtub just change me…. Ridiculous.

Very rude question my reservation made uncomfortable kept asking if I booked at motel 6 couldn't find my reservation even though it was on my phone.They wanted to charge me excess fees website says pets stay free but at check-in wanted to charge fees. Additional deposit of $60 not mentioned either when booking hotel. When asked they couldn't show anywhere that states the fees. Then they cancelled my reservation because they said I was being difficult. They where trying to charge extra fees. Discrimination. Don't stay at this hotel unless you are of Spanish decent. It's right at the California border to Mexico.

Sent us to an unclean room 1st. Had to go back to the office to request another room. That room had some dirt in the corner like obvious dirt that they shouldn’t have missed. There were no towels in the room at all. There was three what they call pillows which basically make one pillow and you stack them together so we have to go get more pillows.. this place may be cheap, but for obvious reasons avoid this place like the plague
