"We arrived late at night in the middle of a massive storm, so we were already on edge and ready to get to our room. The guy at the front desk was super friendly and rather funny. Checked us in quickly, warned us of any potential power outages that may occur, and made sure to put us in a room that wouldn't be too loud from the wind since we were traveling with a cat. Our room was a bit smaller than other Motel 6 that we have stayed in but that was okay. The bed was comfortable but the pillows...

Motel 6 Arcata, CA - Cal Poly Humboldt

2.0 star property
6.6 out of 10, (1032)
"Typical Motel 6 but with a very clean and large room that didn’t show a lot of age or wear/tear (maybe newer or recently remodeled?). The mattress was too firm for my preference but that seems to be typical of most Motel 6’s I’ve stayed at. Quiet area even though it’s off the highway amid other budget hotels and food stops. For the price it’s a very good option when you just need a clean but basic room in a safe, convenient, quiet area to stop for the night."

"The staff at our checkin was very helpful and actually taught us about albino redwoods and how to find one, which we followed his instructions and got to see it in person! If not for him, we would have totally missed out on this once in a lifetime experience. 5 stars to the staff. As for the fscility, our room was clean but there was this smell of strong cleaner and/or mildew maybe during our 2 night stay that kind of burnt my throat and nostrils while we were in the room, so that made it a...

"Such a cute property in a gorgeous surrounding. We were only here for one night but contemplated extending our stay an additional night because we enjoyed it so much. The property has trails right outside your door but we were not able to explore this during our stay. Cute restaurants and amazing beach are a short drive away. We will definitely be back to visit here and decided that we’ll stay here again! "
