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.

All the dining options around this motel close early (around 8pm), even the fast food joints. The motel staff were all very friendly, and the room was fine apart from the dirty laminate flooring. However, all we could smell around the property (and inside our room while the air conditioner was running), was cannabis. This (and the noisy neighbours) ruined our stay.
