Pee smell from air conditioner in first room. The front desk was able to move us to one without that odor. We had some loud talking guys outside our room around 11 pm when trying to sleep, but couldn’t reach the front desk until morning to report it. Despite this, it’s an inexpensive option.

I paid in advanced for the total amount for the property. They still charged me over $450 once I got there and the dispute process is going terribly.

Check-in was super easy, room was very clean. Love that they are pet friendly. Easy to walk downtown for food and shopping, and just down the street is an Albertson’s grocery store. Only downside is that currently (Sept 2024) a lot of the workers that are doing road work on Hwy 101 between Carpinteria and Santa Barbara are staying here, and they go in and out with the large semi-trucks and trailers. It’s noisy with the loud engines and the beeping when they back up.

With lots of traveling lately I’ve stayed at a few Motel 6’s and this one was by far the best I’ve stayed at. It was clean, property well maintained, and I felt safe. I stayed there during the heatwave and the AC in my room worked great. My only complaints would be the toilet paper, it shredded easily. This was an easy fix, I just bought my own at the store that was almost right around the corner. The other concern was that there was only one side of the bed that had a plug in/usb port. Other than that, it was a great stay and I would come back.

We normally stay at a nearby hotel. We chose motel6 because it was half the price and had 8 stars, our minimum. Room was very clean and simple, we requested a first floor room and were accommodated. Staff was very friendly and check in was very quick.

Bad cell and WiFi. The other patrons of this fine destination were typical Motel 6 clientele. Try going further into Santa Barbara for a nicer place.
