Motel 6_East Beach_Sta Barbara
All the staff members were fantastic! However, there were glitches, partly due to Hotels.com and partly the actual computer system onsite. There is no "ocean view"; yet, it was confirmed that I would have an "ocean view". The location is a lovely walk down to East Beach, so not so bad. But, there needs to be more accurate descriptions.

Good Motel 6
Good, basic accommodation in a great location next to the beach and 20 minutes walk to Downtown Santa Barbara. Prices vary greatly depending on demand: good value at $150 but disappointing for $400!!
