Motel 6 at San Simeon, CA
 
Has anyone stayed here? What did you think? We want to stay one night and then visit Hearst Castle. A lot of places are already booked. Is it necessary to get tickets to Hearst Castle in advance? Thanks.

I haven't but one of my brother's has. He says it's one of the better Motel6's.

Buy the tickets for Hearst Castle as soon as your plans are certain.

I have no idea what you pay at Motel 6 but there are some lovely, reasonably priced places in Cambria--just 15-20 min south of the castle. You would be in a real town...but maybe those are the places you are referring to that area already booked....

Yes I have stayed there. If you get an upper floor facing the Pacific there is an ocean view from the top floor!

It's a typical Motel 6. Basic, clean, free HBO. If I bring my own pillow and toiletries I can survive the thin towels for a night.

Wow. Who would think you could get an ocean view room at a Motel 6???? I hope it turns out to be decent.

What fantastick polarize dichotomy you creating with Hearst Castle and Motel Six. Near it finding no camping better?

Do seek truth in all your travels and you will never be oppressed, quashed, nor subjugated.
