Marginal condition. Inexpensive

Room marginally clean. Beds a bit like a hammock---just worn out. Bathroom and room floor in poor condition. Wifi weak and sometimes not at all.

Hello, I stayed at Motel 6 Salinas – North Monterey Area on Aug 30–31. The bathtub in my room was extremely dirty and unsanitary. Because of this, we were unable to take a shower at all during our stay. This was unacceptable and made the room unusable for its basic purpose. I am requesting a 100% refund for this stay, as the conditions did not meet minimum cleanliness or health standards. Please confirm when the refund will be issued.
