This California motel is within 1 mile of Applegate Park Zoo and Merced Amtrak. It offers free Wi-Fi throughout the motel and features cable TV with HBO in every room.

A microwave, fridge and coffee maker are provided in the traditionally decorated rooms at San Joaquin Motel. A wake up service is available and guests can make free local calls.

They offered some snacks upon arrival, due to covid they are not offering breakfast. I thought it was very nice of them to still offer snacks. The lady was very kind and made sure to check if i needed anything. After the first night, my remaining stay was quiet.

Looking for a motel?

Both travelers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help make check-in quick and easy.

    Clean, decently sized room and parking in front of the motel, comfortable beds. The bathrooms are a bit old but still functional.

    You got what you paid for. Sometimes, you pay a certain amount of money for a room, and you feel like you got ripped off. But at Motel 6, I felt like it was an even exchange 🫱🏽‍🫲🏻

    The woman who checked me in late at night was super-nice and very smooth and efficient. Probably the nicest Motel 6 staffer I’ve experienced ever. Although I didn’t use the pool, it looked very nice, clean, and welcoming. The foliage/planting all around the property was nice and well-done. Doing the “upgrade” to the Deluxe room for a very small extra was worth it to have a big fridge and microwave. A/C worked great overnight in the heat of summer. Lots of TV channels and good picture.

    The room was super clean and comfortable. The air conditioner. was set properly. The bathroom was very clean. Swimming pool was in good condition and very clean. But the best we liked was a breakfast. It had variety of food . Tasty!!! It was professionally prepared. It was the best breakfast in California's hotels/motels in which I stayed

    Right of the i5. One of those roach motels the lampoons always end up at. No internet because all the locals hanging out on the corner using last year's password to milk the broadband. No breakfast. Palm trees are dying and the whole place is just run down. Homeless walk the lot, scary dudes digging in nearby trash, thugs looking like they are going to rob you. Shut this bitch down if you value your business and front. This place is garbage.

    We stayed in this Motel for 3 nights and it was very comfortable and near to the Yosemite gate! The breakfast in particular was really great with a lot of choice ( you can even make your waffel with all kinds of toppings! I definitively recommend it!!! Maddalena and Andrew :-)
