Motel 6 San Simeon CA Hearst Castle Area

We arrived late, thanks to a highway closure on Route 1 that sent us on an epic detour (that’s a story for another day). No big deal, though—we finally pulled in around 8:00 p.m., and the front desk clerk was very accommodating. First impressions were good: this place is well-lit at night, including the clean, modern lobby, and the same goes for the back parking lot. We felt safe and secure leaving our car for the night, which was a nice plus. They even have a pool, and it looked inviting, but after such a long day, swimming was a hard pass. Now, about the room. The Wi-Fi was strong—props for that. But as for other amenities? That’s where things fall short. We found a clean, simple room with none of the usual comforts you’d expect in a North American motel. No fridge, no microwave, no iron or ironing board, no hair dryer, and no coffee maker (though they do have coffee in the lobby starting at 6:00 a.m., if you’re up for the walk). Basically, it was just the essentials...and by “essentials,” I mean a bar of soap. Since we were only staying one night and it was late, it didn’t matter much. But if we’d planned to stay a few days, I’d probably have looked elsewhere. Fortunately, there are plenty of options in this area. Minus one star for the lack of basic amenities.

A nice place and a good customer care. I ask for shampoo lotion body wash and hair dryer and they bring it to me quickly. I ask for blanket because the seaside is cold, and they bring me two for me and my mother. They help you immediately when you need. The room is spacious and clean Every thing is nice and neat

we came and stayed for a night on a stop off on our pacific cosst drive up to san Francisco , it was great value for money i felt safe and had a very comfy bed! they also have a pool and some nice restaurants nearby. staff at reception were very lovely

First of all, the staff seemed nice. Checkin and out were pleasant, and without issue. Our problem was that this Motel 6 (and maybe others) seem to have a very inconsistent deployment of mini-fridges and Microwaves. When we booked, it seemed to indicate that the room had these, but apparently, only the ADA accessible rooms have them. This was in pretty fine print when booking. We were staying on the coast for a few days, and made this our base, but being unable to keep any food cool or heat anything up was a problem. The rooms don't have any way to boil water, either, so making coffee is a multi-trip ordeal to the front, heating water in the single tiny, weak, microwave in the common area. Parking was plentiful. There weren't many people there, but the thin walls enabled us to hear everything on our floor, including many barking dogs. Water pressure in the shower was good, and hot water plentiful. Half the snack machines were unstocked. The restaurant was shuttered. Room was clean. There were only a couple outlets in the room, although there were 7 blank wall plates, where outlets might have been at one point.

The motel is very nice, the parking lot is big . The rooms are also big , the beds are comfy the house keeping is excellent. They always leave fresh towels and new rolls of toilet paper . And the front desk is very nice every time , excellent costumer service.
