Close to airport and clean
We needed a location close to the airport for an early departure, we were very pleased with the cleanliness of the property and would have stayed longer to explore the area.

Know your location
The hotel is okay, its a motel 6. However make sure you know what location you are booking. I learned the hard way this was not it. There is more than one in Santa Barbara.

Fairly clean. Was in town for a wedding and needed affordable accomodation. I had a fridge but no microwave which was sad. But the location was close to some nice stores and groceries.

Adequate room and stay, nice pool, not heated. Staff accommodating for room change due to less than hot water.
