No. This property was in such a poor location with a fence around it and a gate. It was off the highway on a cul-de-sac unlike any Motel 6 I've seen. I was so uncomfortable with the location I didn't check in.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to East County during the COVID-19 outbreak?
COVID-19 has changed the way we travel, but it hasn't curbed our eagerness for exploring. Here are a few tips on how to handle the new challenges of travelling:
  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test.
  • When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Travellers who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
  • To decrease the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA employee.
  • TSA now permits passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will need to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
  • To minimize handling during the screening process, put items such as your phone, coins and keys into your carry-on rather than the bins.
  • Separate any food you have for screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
