Our stay here was mostly great considering the price. The property backs up to the freeway, so light sleepers should beware, and ask for a room toward the front of the motel if available.

The Motel6 in Goleta was better than I expected. The room was very functional and somewhat updated, albeit a bit tight for two people with two beds... AC worked well and for my memories of Motel 6, the hotel (and AC) was quieter than usual. Very pleasant and helpful employees.

Motel 6 Goleta, CA-Santa Barbara is our "go-to" motel when we visit and pick up our daughter from UCSB every year. The rates are reasonable and our room is always clean. We love the room set-up, very cozy. Beds and pillows are so comfortable! Office staff are always friendly and accommodating.

I booked this room because it was close to the airport as my kids were arriving late and were taking an Uber to the motel. When I arrived, the checkin was friendly, I got the bottom floor that I wanted, the room smelled clean and was clean PLUS it had a microwave, refrigerator, shampoo, lotion, and soap! Not many Motel 6's are this diligent on customer satisfaction. Bonus... food delivery and coffee in the morning! Truly satisfied. Will be staying again soon!

I stayed at the Motel 6 Goleta and this was the best Motel 6 I've stayed at. It was in a convenient location, was clean, comfortable and had lots of potty areas for my dogs. I would definitely recommend it.

Location is very convenient to UCSB, staff friendly, room clean enough and bed comfortable. AC worked, and didn’t experience any noise issues between rooms.

We are pleasantly surprised by this Motel 6. The staffs are polite, engaging and helpful. The room has all the basic needs, clean and good fresh neutral smell (no cleaning chemical smell nor bad odor). Complimentary coffee and tea in the morning is a plus. We enjoyed the stays.

I stayed at the Motel 6 in Goleta, California this past weekend. While the location was convenient with plenty of restaurants, markets, and entertainment nearby, the room itself felt humid and musty, with poor air circulation and minimal lighting. The air conditioning struggled to cool the space, making it uncomfortable at times especially with four people sharing the room.

Friendly staff & clean room can’t ask for much more. Some highway noise but that’s a trade off that’s ok for it’s convenient location.

Got the last room available... Corner room, 1st floor. Felt a little small but was fine for what the room was used for. Good water pressure. It, wasn't the first time I've stayed in a Motel 6 and I certainly don't think it will be the last time I stay at a Motel 6
