Modesto|0.96km from city center
So I booked this after having car issues it was my 4th night straight in motel 6 but first niye in Modesto. Upon arriving it took 45 more min to get our room cleaned, in which time 3 homeless approached me one of them.physically picking up my dog (thank god she didn't bite her) and running saying im going to steal ur dog if u leave her alone??? *** then around 5 we were going to go get some food. We got it too go and came straight back around 545 when walking in homeless and drug deals going down in the gated ”customers only” parking lot that apparently motel 6 doesnt enforce and the gate was never locked. The homeless lady who wants to steal my dog and follow us around tells us ”to keep our asses in our rooms now” we shouldnt come out for the rest of the night? So we never even brought clothes in to change never were able to go get my asthma rescue inhaler or the games we were going to play, we just had to.lay here me fighting to breathe and listen to.the slamming doors all night of ppl going outside for 5 min then coming back in. Ppl yelling and sketchy stuff all night. Its 730 am.and I cant wait to b able to.lv my room and get my inhaler. Its like im paying to b a prisoner...im waiting for that lady to come knock on my door and tell me I can come out. I just can't wait to get out of here...its stressful driving a car with issues but staying at motel 6 was just as stressful if not worse that I reported this to motel 6 and nothing was done and I just paid motel 6 $75 to struggle breathing all night and b harassed by homeless people. On the up.note if ur a drug addict on a trip come here all of them in modesto.are in this motel 6 downtown. No need to withdrawal on a vacation just come here. I WOULD ADVISE ANYONE ESPECIALLY IF U DRIVE A NICE CAR OR HV KIDS TO NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER STAY HERE. LIKE DONT EVEN CONSIDER IT. THIS.HOTEL IS.FOR.JUNKIES AND HOMELESS....DONT DO IT of course unless ur a junkie like i said then u will hv a great time here.

I stay here frequently probably 4-5 days a month. I have worked for hotels previously as well and I get having to be strict with policy's but the front desk girl with glasses is the absolute worst. She has a seriously personal issue with me and it's very apparent. First time i stayed here: I go into I was told the reservation was not paid for in advance like Choice said. So I try to pay with my debit card and they only take cards with chips. So it's over 100 degrees so I'm a little annoyed by having to run around. But I get back and she proceeds to tell me ”you can just leave if you don't like rules” and ”I can cancel your reservation” I told her no and it wasn't a problem I was just exhausted and frustrated with being told two different things. Second stay: We booked for a total of 10 days I believe. Stay wasn't a issue until the day before check out. I'm at work same woman calls and says we aren't extending anyone past 5 days anymore and we need to get our stuff by 11am it was 10:15 or so. So I have to rush back and remove our stuff. I still manage to keep my composure. Third stay: I was checking out after 2 days and I wasn't aware I got some make up on one of their towels. I was checking out around 7am I went down and with most places if you leave a cash deposit they check your room. So she goes does that and takes about 15 mins but again I'm trying to be patient. She comes down with the towel in her hand opens it in front of guests and says ”what's this” I said my apologies I didn't even realize I had gotten the towel dirty as I always being my own. But she then charges me $25 and I still say no problem (rules are rules” Fourth and Final stay I book 2 days. I check in and was told by the nice front desk woman (Asian and great at her job) that hotel policy had changed and they aren't doing cash anymore. But since I stay here often this time wont be an issue but to remember for next time. No problem I say. Choice had made two separate reservations for each day so I could get my free night since I use them almost every weekend. So Saturday morning at 10:30am I proceed to front desk to pay for the second night. The girl with glasses is there so I am prepared and smiling. She then tells me that she isn't taking cash so I explain to her what the woman told me the night before. She said she is wrong it was only for the stay on Saturday not Sunday and she will give me until noon to leave. I then had hit my limit with her condescending, power trip, snarky attitude. I said let me make a call. I call choice and they are very apologetic and book me elsewhere for a free night. I go down to check out and could barely speak I was so furious. I keep everything to one word answers. I said ”checkin out” she smiles and says ”so would you like for me to cancel your reservation” I said ”yes” I give her my ID she does her usual 15 min room check. She then tells me to have a great day in a tone that would boil anyone's blood. I refuse to let this wo

Baymont by Wyndham Modesto Salida

The towels were very rough and hard and made we want to use my own clothes to dry off. The parking lots were dirty, had trash and oil puddles all over them and the hotel is in a shady area right next to a train that kept me up all night and shook the room as it passed and honked. The walls are so thin I could hear my neighbor conversing very clearly and the people above me were stomping around upstairs. The water pressure in the shower is very poor and feels like a trickle down my back, I went through all the water settings and they didn't help at all.
SpringHill Suites Modesto

We really enjoyed our stay at the Springhill Suites. The reception staff are the best we have encountered during our 6 week road trip. Suite super clean and spacious with comfortable bed and quality linnens. We enjoyed relaxed breakfast. Had a fabulous Mexican meal at Damiens a few miniutes walk away. Thankyou for a great stay we highly recommend Springhill suites
Days Inn by Wyndham Modesto
3.3/555 Reviews
We stayed in room 116 located on the ground floor close to the lobby. The room was adequate. It contained a huge wardrobe that dominated the room, a smaller TV, three chairs, a table. a portable luggage rack, sink/vanity, bathroom with toilet, bath/shower. The room and amenities were clean. The heating/cooling system was antiquated. We left the fan on low all night and it sounded like a bathroom fan. The daytime temperatures in Modesto were in the 70's and the cooling system didn't blow cold air. This might be a problem when the daytime temperatures are in the 90's or 100's. This motel is showing its age but was clean. Breakfast included the usual amenities of cold cereal, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, oatmeal, bananas, apples, selection of breads for toast, coffee, teas, and juices.
The Yosemite Inn
3.2/515 Reviews
The service of the quality hotel is not bad. Although it is a domestic standard, the hotels in the United States are basically clean and the service is very enthusiastic. However, the facilities of this hotel are relatively old, and the feeling of blocking the water and the water is very common. It took three rooms to change to a fairly satisfactory room.

This hotel is wonderful. They have breakfast that's so good, you won't have to spend any extra money to feed yourself and whoever you're with. The biscuits and gravy that they serve are to die for and eggs and sausage as well as pancake machine that makes these tiny little pancakes there are so good they also have 3 different kinds of cereal and a selection of juices as well as oatmeal and toast and muffins.
