ROBERTO, 1-night trip

It was so quiet and very clean. We had a good, quick stay.
Kristyn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We recommend to family and friends

Motel 6 had everything needed for our 2 night stay. The staff was friendly, room was clean, bed was comfortable and it was near the beach. We noticed a little bit of mold where the shower wall met the bathroom wall (to be expected so close to ocean) and our room was located on the second floor which made using the stairs a little difficult for us older folks. Other than that, we would stay again.

Nora, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Not bad not amazing

Generally clean and modern/renovated. Air condition smelled a little and pointed directly at bed and you couldn’t point it another way. Lots of cars on the nearby road so you’ll hear many cars.
Jiahao, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good enough

Great location for Carpinteria and Santa Barbara. Walking distance to Main Street, restaurants, stores, beach, etc. Smaller rooms. Old motel but in decent shape.

MANISH, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good Stay.

Our stay was very good. The only issues were not having our room cleaned one day (fresh towels were brought to us when we called for them) and not having one of our room key cards work (front office gave us a replacement card that worked).

Lindsey, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great for travelers with pets

Friendly staff, hotel room was clean and economical, all I needed traveling with a dog. Great Thai food and frozen yogurt places within walking distance. The pool looked inviting on a hot day. Someone was always at the front desk. Plenty of parking, even on a busy weekend in and out. Water was hot and the shower had good pressure. The basics for the right price.
D, 2-night trip

Quick stop

It’s a quick stop on my long driving trip along the California coast. The place is simply, bare minimum, a clean, safe, comfortable bed.
