I was pleasantly surprised by the well taken care of Motel 6. I gave it a shot based on other reviews and it was just what we needed. It is by no means fancy; just simple and basic. And while they don’t have all the extras like shampoo and conditioner, the place is tidy, inexpensive and convenient walking distance to shops, restaurants and the beach.

Front desk employee friendly and efficient. Wish the windows in the room came with a sheer curtain so you can have privacy and still light. Also, only coffee available in the morning, sadly no tea 😔

I don't usually stay at Motel 6. There were few options in Carpinteria. I was there for a track meet. I was pleasantly surprised with the updated accomodations, cleanliness and excellent service that the front office provided. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. I would come back! The location is excellent. Walking distance from all the shops and restaurants.
