Great little motel in a great location.
Pros:

It’s extremely convenient to Linden Square and Carpinteria State Beach. Great value for a safe, clean place to stay.

Cons:

Motel 6 towels are always so thin and the pillows are always flat. However, the staff brought me extras anytime I asked.

Pros:

Locatie was wel top. Eetgelegenheden dichtbij

Cons:

Ontzettend gehorig! Er zat gewoon een tussendeur in de kamer. Wij hebben gewoon de buurman de hele nacht horen snurken!
140 dollar voor 1 kamer betaald. Hoogste van ons hele trip in 22 dagen tijd, en tevens de minste motel
