The room smelled of cat urine and was masked by a deodorizer in the a/c unit to mask the smell.

For the cost and location, this place is Fine- the room was fine- the bathroom could have been better cleaned- water could have been a little hotter- location to the interstate and WWU is the only reason to stay here- Stayed at the hotel down the street before- not much better and cost $40 more for the time I was visiting this time.

The staff at check-in was nice but aside from that I was very disappointed. The pool was closed and looked abandoned. The room was extremely dirty and had a very strong smell. The linens were stained.

Typical Motel 6 but in a decent area. Room was clean just bare bones. No shampoo or bathmat. Shower curtain was falling apart. But room was clean and sufficient for a one night stay.

Looks like there are permanent residents, and there are chairs in the parking lot. The room smelled strongly of piss, and the bed linens were paper thin and did not smell fresh. We slept in our clothes and left our luggage in the car. The whole room stank, but the bathroom smelled even worse than the room.

At Motel 6 you are looking for an inexpensive room that is reasonably clean and has a reasonably comfortable bed, nothing more. The room was small but OK for the price. The bathroom shower did not appear to have been cleaned, so much so that neither my adult son nor I were willing to use it, the rest of the room was clean enough. The motel is near the freeway so there is a lot of traffic noise. Positives include lots of restaurants nearby and, as noted, convenient to the freeway and the ferry.
