I can only manage to get some sleep for a short while.

The room was of moderate size. We only stayed one night. The facilities were complete, the transportation was convenient, the parking lot was large and free, and it was easy to check in. There was a public laundry room and dryer, but we didn't use them. There were small supermarkets on the front and back sides, which was convenient for shopping.

The front desk staff were very welcoming.

However, the room was incredibly old and dilapidated, and the bed was filthy with stains. I didn't sleep a wink all night. I will never stay at Motel 6 again…

The location was convenient, within walking distance of the trolley station and a short Uber ride from the airport, but the security situation may be a little bad (if you're used to traveling abroad, it won't be a problem).

I booked it because it had a bathtub, but I had to ask the front desk for a plug, and there were days when they didn't have enough to lend me one.

Also, the photo shows a pool, but there was nothing there.
It's not listed in the facilities section, so I may have misunderstood, but it was a little disappointing.

We personally didn’t liked the location, but the service was nice that it was possible to change our hotels.

Very good location with walking distance to the beach, but the amenities were below average
12.05.2024 Guest
Motel with good structure, price x benefit is worth it
05.02.2024 Guest
After staying for two days, I am still satisfied with all aspects of services and the transportation is convenient. Renewed for another three days. The total is check-in on January 3rd and check-out on January 8th. The two front desk staff provided very good service. Even though it was difficult to communicate with someone from a foreign country, they patiently helped me resolve the issue. I would like to express my gratitude to both of them. Two elderly people from Shanghai, China.

This is a great place to spend a light day. The location is right in front of Little Italy. However, a separate parking fee of $10 is charged and the cleanliness of the facility is average.

We happened upon this hotel because our original hotel could not accommodate our late check-in.

The ladies at Motel 6 were so kind, and accommodating, and informing about the neighborhood!

I had a different expectation when walking in... the hotel was clean, our room was spotless, and it had everything we needed.

Sandy is so funny, and kind! We felt like she went over and beyond in making us feel comfortable and welcomed.

Deborah has all the restaurant recommendations, and was great with directions, and Daisy was kind of enough to let us in our room...when we locked ourselves out.

The Customer Service here was better than many of the 4 and 5 star places we've stayed over the years.

The fact that we remembered there names on our own pretty much sums up our experience.

I don't remember the two housekeepers names that we interacted with, but there were supper kind to us as well.

We will return!!!!

How could you not love this place? While busy on weekends (not sure if this trend continues during the week), they are very efficient. There is a line for take out (head to the right) and a check in booth to sit down in the restaurant. Either way, you get a number and get called in when you turn comes. Last time it took them about 10 minutes to get my take out dessert ready (1 piece of heavenly coconut cream cake). For take out you pay upfront and then pick up your treat, for sit down it works just like in an ordinary restaurant.

The selection is displayed on both sides of the counter, drink menu is above the counter. There is no seating for take out, but people still would sit on concrete outside. Great vibe.

It is pricey compared to bakeries, you will pay $9-12 for a slice of cake.
07.12.2017 Lisa
All the sweets here are so intricate and beautiful! One of my favorite dessert places of all time. The interior is modern and sleek. It’s a wonderful place to go on a date or to catch up with friends.
03.12.2017 Suzie
This place is seriously decadent. Everything they make is beautiful, rich, and delicious. You can't go wrong with anything chocolate, including their hot chocolate. I also love their grilled cheese. Slices of cake are big enough to share and come garnished with rose petals and gold leaf. Service is sometimes a little slow and there is often a long wait but I promise it's worth it!
02.12.2017 Peter
The desserts are a work of art. Some of these cakes could be in a museum. The flavors are not as impressive as the appearances had led me to hope. While delicious, with looks like that I expected the taste to be much more extraordinary. It was a fun experience, but I won't go out of my way to come back. There are comparable options as far as tasty desserts are concerned that you don't have to deal with downtown traffic to get to.
21.11.2017 Rhyann
I’ve been here so many times that it has become a tradition. For dinner I love the Italian Tuna sandwich. It has truffle oil and sharp cheddar and crusty bread. It is probably one of my favorite sandwiches ever. I’ve had different desserts every time I’ve been there: lemon meringue pie, espresso brownie, cheesecake, chocolate cake (I know the names are fancier, so forgive my ignorance). By far, my favorite dessert was this (salted?) caramel cheesecake. It was exceptional. This place isn’t cheap, but it also isn’t overly expensive for what you get.
