Cheap hotel for a cheap price.

The hotel was conveniently located for us and was much cheaper than the rest. You get what you paid for is all I can say. The bathroom was the worst with a toilet that barely flushed and dirty floor, two super thin towels for 4 people to share. Beds were ok and the AC worked well. We planned on leaving by 0900 but plans changed when the fire alarm went off at 0730. We just grabbed our stuff and left.

We like the pricing for the time of year. The South Bay Motel has always been a very clean hotel and that's why we come back plus it's conveniently located. There's a good fridge, tv, and microwave. No phone or clock, or in room coffee machine but it's next door to a Dunkin'. So great stay, clean room, and safe parking.

I got here to check in, and they workers at the front desk refused to give me a king size bed, they had a couple available. This place is dirty and broken down, the cabinet door is broken and i almost hurt myself opening it to gwt to the refrigerator. This is the worse motel ever. I hate this place the owners are secretly recording guest they have been doing it for years especially in the rooms they use for short stays, and the rooms with jacuzzi bath tubs. The cameras are in the mirrors and hidden around the room. This place needs to be shut down
