Pros: Pets stay for free, it’s nice to walk along the marina. During the day police cars are parked in the parking lot, giving a sense of security.
Cons: A night the People staying in adjacent rooms were extremely noisy , non stop until 3 am in the morning. Also another group of people hanged out outside their rooms, smoking and with loud music starting at 6 am.

First, let me say that the staff we came into contact with were friendly and efficient. Though the floor in the room needed a good wash, the bed was clean and comfortable.
However, there are a few things I wish I had known before booking:
1) It can be some distance between the parking lot and the room and there are no luggage trolleys.
2) There appears to be a number of permanent residents. They have to check out and check back in every 3 weeks but it still appears that they are still there for long term.
3) The smell of cannabis is very strong throughout the property.
4) There is no place close by to eat.

My experience at Motel 6 was the worst I have ever had. I checked in and left for a concert, but when I returned, I found myself locked out of my room, needing to be at work by 7 AM. I was informed that no one could unlock the door because the battery had died, and maintenance wouldn't arrive until 11 AM. As a result, I missed work. When I asked for help, I was told there was nothing they could do until maintenance got there. The phone in the room didn’t work, and I also found pubic hair in the shower. Overall, the customer service was very poor.

Clean room and bath. The shower was satisfactory but the shower head was in poor condition.
The TV didn't work. and neither did the phone until I reported it.
The Embarcadero location is lovely and the adjacent fishing pier is a pleasant place to relax.

One of the best place to stay! The front desk was super friendly and welcoming. The area is quiet and respectful. On top of that, affordable and a great view of the pier.

Room came with literally nothing except for two towels that didn’t even seem clean
Heard some noise that kept us up the whole night , and there were homeless people around the area that were slightly shy of intimidating
Bathroom had no shampoo, tub was dirty and it was just not pleasant as we hoped it to be

Rooms were alright, nothing fancy but they did the job. Staff was also alright. Very very close to Oaklands homeless camps although we did not have an issues. Nice that the Pier was right behind the hotel. People loitering outside the rooms though asking for money and cigarettes.

We stayed two nights.This is an inexpensive motel, so we didn’t expect much, but we couldn’t put up with the room we were given the first night because there were only two electrical outlets - one inoperative, and the other only worked when the light was on, so our devices couldn’t charge overnight. There were other inconveniences too, like no counter at the bathroom sink, and no fridge. I got the feeling we were given the worst room they had because we booked through Expedia at a discount rate. The staff was helpful and pleasant though, and agreed to move us to another room for the second night. This room was much better overall than the first.
