Great For the Beach

We hadn’t stayed at a motel 6 in decades, but we had grand kids and didn’t want to camp. I would go back. We were a little concerned by all the men who seemed to work but not live locally, but they were quiet after eight, and we didn’t hear them in the am. There is NO microwave anywhere, not even the front office, and limited coffee pots to heat water. But there was a fridge. Walking to anywhere is perfect.

Getaway

Good place to stay outside of Santa Barbra . We are also able to go to Solvang , Los Olivos from this location. Carpenteria: small city with a lot to offer !!

The lady at the front desk at night who did our check in was very nice
Suramy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Decent stay

Overall, the stay was good. We encountered an issue at check in. We booked an accessible room and they didnt have anymore available due to "over booking." It took them a little while but after making a few calls they gave us a room on the ground floor. I guess its considered an upgrade. The room was bigger than other rooms. The room itself was clean and well kept. Only downside was the beds- not very comfortable but also not horrible. Not bad for one night stay.

8/10 Very good

A great place to stay in a beautiful area! Close to everything, and even walking distance to some places. Staff was professional and courteous. Room was clean and comfortable.
Mary Anne, 1-night trip

A good deal

Nice stop for the night. Room was small but we went to eat at a grea brewery with a food truck so didnt spend much time there. Beds were comfy, room on second floor was dark, air conditioner was quiet.

Our room was clean and comfortable. It had a refrigerator and microwave. The heater worked well. Great price. Best of all, our dog was welcome.
Susan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The two ladies working the front office were so efficient and compassionate. We were checking in due to fire evacuations and they made us feel safe and welcomed.
Leslie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

A bit noisy throughout the night and mattresses very soft. Overall clean and easy place to stay for one night.
Elisa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Smiles and great attitude can make the difference

A friendly smile at the end of your day can make the difference of how your day will end. Having an exceptional front desk personal can make the difference.
