Wouldn't recommend.

Mattresses were pathetic condition in room 109. Hair in shower, general poor condition of bathroom walls. No tissues, really? I don't expect much from a Motel 6 these days but I do expect a little better when paying over $120 per night. Non-dairy dry creamer packets for the gross coffee says it all.

I stayed at the Motel 6 Goleta and this was the best Motel 6 I've stayed at. It was in a convenient location, was clean, comfortable and had lots of potty areas for my dogs. I would definitely recommend it.

Dirty Bath aTub, denied request to change rooms!

I am an avid traveler, and this is the first time I was denied when requesting to change rooms when the one given was dirty. There were several available rooms too! The front desk simply said once a room is assigned in their system, it cannot be changed. She said I can complain to the manager in the morning and maybe he might give me a discount! Beware of this and avoid this place at all costs!!

Reeked of cigarette smell

I was given a room which was steeped in cigarette smell, horrible… and the room phone didn’t work either, when i tried to call front desk. Finally called from my phone and they gave me another room which was ok. But too much time wasted in the whole process.
