Motel 6 Eureka, CA – Redwood Coast

Motel 6 Eureka, CA – Redwood Coast

8/10 Good
"The refurbished room was nice. The room looked toward the storage unit place next door so I could not look out to see my vehicle. Whenever someone walked past my 2nd story room, the floor shook. I could here what the people outside were talking about. All in all, a good place to crash when on a road trip."
