This motel is located next to Highway 101. Traffic can be heard all night long. The train horn can be heard in the middle of the night. The walls are very thin and you can hear the television and other people laughing in the next room. The motel is three stories tall and there are no elevators. If you check... More

Great value for you money, really close to US101, 15 minutes from Sta Barbara. Typical Motel 6 style, small but clean rooms, cable TV, AC and heating working just fine, but no luxury. A little bit noise, as the door is in front of the parking lot, so every guest with a louder car may wake you up, but thats... More

For all those who will stay in this motel please understand it is just a motel. We enjoyed the stay and the staff was very nice and accommodating. It is conveniently located near Santa Barbara and all the hot spots.

We decided last minute to go to a dog show in Santa Barbara in August, which meant we were limited in places we could stay on short notice with dogs for under $300 a night! We chose this Motel 6 over the other one in Carpinteria because it was about $15 a night less expensive than the one just south.... More

If you just want a place to crash, this place is ok. The beds were comfortable, and I liked the table and chairs. Another nice amenity is that they have laundry machines on site.The room smelled like smoke. Ventilation was poor, and the window barely opens. I had to leave the door open for fresh air. The problem with that,... More

Went for the weekend with my two Granddaughters. I had stayed there before when they had just remodeled and it was not too bad. This visit was horrible. The hotel should be shut down. The bedspread had stains all over it. The floors were dirty and sticky. The beds are the worst. It is just a foam mattress on a... More

Lazy Staff - poor service - view of HWY 101, and road noise all night noisy AC worked but run all night. Avoid staying here if at all possible our room was less than 200 Sq. Ft. at a cost of 115.00 plus taxes

I like Motel 6, I usually stay in them when I am traveling and know not to expect a whole lot. This one is the worst I have ever seen. The carpet was damp, the room had a sour musty stench to it and we killed three cockroaches - two in the bathroom and one on the wall between the... More

Booked a non-smoking room but they put us in a smoking room. After only one night our clothes stank of smoke for the remainder of our trip. Was told that the internet wifi was in our booking. It wasn't so we had to pay extra when checking in. Terrible place.
