This was an average motel taking advantage of a parents weekend. It was a $150 room for $250. Location was convenient, staff very nice. Very clean. Horrible mattress made it impossible to sleep.

Room shabby, shelf shaky/loose and slightly down sloping. Corner couch was also slightly down sloping, so you would slide off of it. Hue of the lights was warehouse 6000k like. Had one towel for us to share. One day, they hung up our towel, didn't make our bed? No coffee maker in room - but they have coffee in the lobby, or so they say. First morning we were informed that the coffee 'literally ran out at 6 something'. So, we did not get any coffee that day?!! Final concern - the parking lot may be too small - all spaces were filled after dinner on one of our nights, making me nervous, if we had arrived later in the evening. Overall, there is no chance I would recommend this motel.

I mean there aren’t to many affordable options in Santa Barbara or Goleta that also allow dogs, so for those reasons alone it’s a great place to stay. Staff is great, room was a nice safe place for us to get sleep. Not the cleanest just a little bit more dusting and it would be a million times better. But overall we had a great stay and will defiantly go back!
