Motel 6 Fort Bragg, CA

8/10 Good
"First and foremost, this Motel 6 is in a very convenient location in Fort Bragg - close to everything locally & a very easy stop if you are only passing through. The property/rooms are showing their age and associated wear and tear, but repair work seems to be underway. In the meantime, the basics needed for a comfortable stay are covered! The heater/AC unit worked well. Water got hot quickly (and stayed hot) in both shower and sink. The water pressure in the shower was better than expected. The fridge was ice cold. The mattress was just fine. Plenty of parking, safe and well-lit. I felt ok leaving a few things in the car overnight and had no issues. Most of the staff were friendly. I love that dogs stay free at Motel 6!! Lastly, fresh, hot coffee in the lobby starting at 6am was greatly appreciated."
