Short trip to a wedding, great stay!
Great location for us to attend a wedding in Goleta. The shopping strip next to motel has a wonderful Chinese restaurant, so good we ate there twice, and Dune coffee cafe for wonderful coffee and croissants.
The Motel 6 pool looked nice and clean, just didn’t have time for a swim.

Fine but overpriced.
Everything was very clean except the pool. It was pretty gross. Very friendly front desk and housekeeping personnel. Obscenely expensive for what you got!

The tub was washed again before I got in. The plugd plug the rubber kind was moldy on bottom and dirty. Not everyone takes a shower for a reason. They need the tub. I know few and far between now days. I took a door key want me to mail it back you clean and reuse right? Room mate was disturbed by a couple of men smoking out by our window she almost called office and she thought someone put key in door. You asked. Ild still stay with motel 6.
