Location is great, close to East Beach and also not to far from downtown Santa Barbara. However, cleanliness could be improved (shower floor was dirty). Waiting times at reception were long, 30 mins at check in. Also rooms are very small and descriptions misleading, our “deluxe room” did not face the ocean but an parking lot and noisy train line. Didn’t see the difference to a standard room.

For a Motel 6, this was a wonderful place. It is the original Motel 6 so it is far from what was expected. A 2 minute walk to the beach and 20 minute walk to the pier.

Unwelcoming host No microwave “rental guy left hours ago” No breakfast Unclean room with hair in comforter Lied to expedia that we were there for an hour when in fact we immediately contacted expedia, requested a cancellation and immediately left, all within less than 30 minutes (as expedia had a long wait time on chat and on the phone) Despite almost immediate request for cancellation a cancellation fee was applied. Highly not recommended due to uncleanliness, poor customer service and lack of professionalism
