Gayot "While Southern California boasts its fair share of luxury hotels, budget by the beach is a rarity, especially in Santa Barbara."
Fodor's "A half block from East Beach amid fancier hotels sits this basic but comfortable motel—the first Motel 6 in existence and the first in the chain to transform into a contemporary Euro-style abode." Full review
Lonely Planet "The very first Motel 6 to ‘leave the light on for you’ has been remodeled with IKEA-esque contemporary design and flat-screen TVs." Full review
Frommer's "One of the best values in town, this hotel also comes with a bit of history...in Motel 6 fashion, there are no frills, but guestrooms are clean and comfortable, some furnished with microwave" Full review
