Very clean and fresh. Had a lovely ambiance and the room was a good size. Perfect to wander to the beach or restaurants/bars with free parking. The breakfast was simple but good quality food, teas and coffee. We loved our stay which was unfortunately only for one night.

From the moment we arrived we were treated like one of the family. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The ranch is amazing with lovely horses and character touches fitting with the ranch lifestyle. The meals were delicious and wholesome served with a smile. They even put a bottle of wine in our room for my 60th birthday. The jacuzzi was just what we needed after a great horse ride. Love this place

I never write reviews but for this one I will… It was by far the cleanest hotel on my month long roadtrip to the USA. It got everything you need, a pool, a walk-inn shower instead of a bath tub nobody uses. Free parking and good breakfast opportunities in walking distance. 7/11 next door…. It should have 3 stars or more instead of 2

We enjoyed Santa Barbara as usual. We have been coming there once a year for about 10 years. We enjoyed the Trolley Tour, although we have had better guides. The one we had seemed to roll through all the sights where, during previous visits, we were able to get better photos, and saw more.

Easy walk from Motel 6 on Carpinteria Street to restaurants and the beach. "The Spot" for burgers! Little Dom's for fancy feed. I walked my doggie in her stroller. Grocery store two blocks down the street. Not fancy digs. Just PEACE and QUIET. Nice pool too.

When I visit my daughter and grandson in Santa Barbara, I like to have my privacy so I stay here. The dog and i can walk to the beach boardwalk in 20 minutes. There's the tasty burger shack where we share! There are bathrooms. On the way to the beach you will find restaurants and shops. The old doggie is in a nice-sized stroller, so we can bring back goodies. Right next door to the Motel 6 on Carpenteria Street is a grocery store, dollar-type store, and Goodwill too! Have fun!
