The listing on the website did not match the room we were given. On the Expedia website, you can select rooms with various types of views but at the hotel, we were told that our room type was only available on the ground floor, facing the parking lot. We had a "gorgeous" view of cars and there were people thumping on our ceiling and dogs barking next door late into the night.

Need to be refunded, not clean, very small & made me claustrophobic, pet hair (allergic to pets, got sick,) dust, ants & other dark insects in bathroom My partner felt so uneasy wanted to sleep in the car, Keurig did not work. Train track noise, no ocean views, small beds and linens are rough.

It’s Motel 6 so you don’t expect much but it was very cute and retro looking. Small but good. So close to the beach! You can’t beat that!

Hidden gem close to the beach that makes a trip to Santa Barbara really affordable. Newly renovated with post modern decor that’s fun and quirky (retro turquoise mini fridge). Small but clean and serviceable pool, deck and lounging area. Hot coffee in lobby each morning. Minimally staffed so you need some patience at check in/ out but they are kind and helpful to guests.

Check in experience was not good. Staff at the check in desk were quite unhelpful and seemed very high. After fighting for the upgrade we were promised a month prior, we were eventually given an upgrade that was comped because our room was not ready at check in time…took an extra hour to check in so we had to leave and come back twice. Our room was somewhat clean and had a few amenities, but it’s a motel 6 so we weren’t expecting luxury. Great location just a short walk from the beach and a short bike ride to the beach…CAUTION if you rent bikes ensure you bring them inside your room overnight as someone tried very hard to steal our rentals. We will not be staying here again
