The Spotlight on Motel 6-Atascadero CA

Simple Comfort Close to the Action in Atascadero

Modern and no-frills, Motel 6-Atascadero CA offers a clean, budget-friendly stay in a convenient location just off Highway 101. Located next to El Camino Real Plaza Shopping Center, the motel is within easy reach of local venues, dining, and attractions. With free parking, a seasonal outdoor pool, and pet-friendly rooms, it’s a solid option for travelers looking to keep things simple without sacrificing location.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert-goers appreciate the motel’s central location—just a short drive from popular venues in Atascadero and Paso Robles. Free parking and quick highway access make getting to and from shows a breeze. Rooms are basic but quiet enough for a good night’s rest after a loud night out. Plus, with flexible check-in starting at 3:00 PM, you’ll have time to drop your bags before heading to your event.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable crash pad
  • Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list gig
  • Couples making a low-key weekend of it
  • Fans who want a quiet place to recharge
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who’d rather spend on tickets than stays

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, the motel is next to a shopping plaza with fast food and casual dining options. Grab a slice or burger before heading to the venue. Free coffee is served in the lobby each morning, and with plenty of nearby diners, you won’t have trouble finding breakfast after a late night.

Nightlife Options

You’re just minutes from downtown Atascadero and a short drive to Paso Robles, where you’ll find local bars, breweries, and lounges to keep the night going. While the motel itself is quiet, it’s a great launchpad for exploring the area’s growing music and nightlife scene.

What People Say

Guests love the value for money, especially for short stays. The rooms are described as clean and straightforward—nothing fancy, but exactly what you need after a night out. Reviewers also highlight the friendly staff and how easy it is to get in and out of the property.

Areas for Improvement

Some travelers note that the rooms could use a few modern updates and that amenities are minimal. There’s no fridge or microwave in standard rooms, and Wi-Fi may come with a small charge. But for the price point, most agree it’s a fair trade-off.

The Bottom Line

If you're headed to a show and just need a clean, convenient, and affordable place to crash, Motel 6-Atascadero CA hits the right notes.

Weird peopl

Liked: Easy access to the freeway and restaurants near by and walking distance.
Disliked: There are weird people just staring. I couldn’t sleep confortable because I didn’t feel safe with that people sitting in the grass area and on the second floor sitting in chairs. And I’m not being judgmental but there are some weird people in this area. I absolutely do not recommend it for families.

Ripped off, disappointed, angry

Liked: The bed was comfortable!!
Disliked: My husband our dog and I booked a room for 5 nights at Motel 6 in Atascadero CA through Booking.com. We arrived around 8:00 pm on 07/06/2025. Upon entering the room it smelled like marijuana and cigarettes. The room was absolutely disgusting! In the bathroom there was poop splatters on the wall by the toilet and also on the toilet paper holder. In the shower there was hair and pubic hair. The floor had some kind of black sticky substance stuck to it and just flat out filthy. We had our dog with us and I could not take the chance of my dog licking anything off of the floor. Who knows what the prior guests dropped on the floor because the black sticky stuff on the floor looked and smelled like marijuana resin. My husband works 12 hours days back to back all he wanted to do was go to bed. So I took 2 of the hand towels and some dish soap and scrubbed the floor my self. We were told that maid service is every 3 days when the maid didn't come and service our room I went to the office with the dirty towels and asked for clean ones. The lady behind the counter I think her name is Kim was rude and disrespectful she told me it hadn't been 3 days and proceeded to raise her voice at me and tell me that I ruined her white towels . I told her that the floor was really dirty and I didn't want my dog licking anything off of it. She said she couldn't believe that I ruined her towels and why would I do that, that I should of come down and got some rags instead of using the towels. I asked her why was the floor so dirty and why was it not cleaned. She said that her maids deep clean the rooms every time they clean them. Obviously she is lying. I took pictures of everything. We are on our last night here and we still never got our room cleaned and no clean towels. The WiFi didn't work. We did not complain to her because we had witnessed her treatment of other guests.

Exceptional

Liked: Very Clean! Idk why they have low ratings in cleaning etc. Their towels and sheets are crisp white and plush. They offer room service, always ready provide tissue and other necessites. Their staff members are very friendly and accommodating. They have all kinds of teas, coffee, hot chocolate and condiments which was my favorite. It's close to the freeway, grocery store is less than a mile away. They offer late check-out upon request and early check-in based on availability.
Disliked: Nothing :)
