    We have stayed for years on Thanksgiving.

    We have stayed for years on Thanksgiving. We love the hotel, but this year I asked for a disabled room and although the shower tub was much lower my husband still had a hard time. We needed a roll in shower.

    Carp is a lovely little town.

    Carp is a lovely little town. The beaches are nice and linden st is a nice collection of restaurants. It is only 10 minutes to downtown Santa Barbara 20 minutes to Ventura, if you liked to hike, your in for some works class scenery.

    Like I said in the past I love carpenteria Carpenter is...

    Like I said in the past I love carpenteria Carpenter is great only thing I can't stand about motel 6 over here south, they allow the sheriffs to just drive up in the parking lot and that's against the constitutional rights of the hotel and it's guests (Private Property).. sheriff should not be on the property unless called not driving through the lot looking at people's cars and stuff that's that's against the constitutional rights.. but other than that the carpenter with South motel 6 is my store that's why I like to go, should have more American maids and all that I understand the Mexican thing and all but a lot of them don't understand English man tell me I should I should understand Spanish no no this is America you should understand English 99% of the guests understand English...

    A good suburb of Santa Barbara with good restaurants, beach...

    A good suburb of Santa Barbara with good restaurants, beach and grocery shops. A 10-15 minute drive on motorway to Santa Barbara where there is good parking options in the back streets - mostly 90 mins. We managed free parking all day by moving to different areas for our site seeing. Cost if accommodation better value than Santa Barbara but you will need to drive that is the compromise. We ate at the Italian and the Thai restaurant, both were excellent.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE Carpenteria! Beautiful little beach town.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE Carpenteria! Beautiful little beach town. Good restaurants. Perfect beach and places to walk/hike. We could walk everywhere (beach, restaurants,stores) in town. The fact it’s a short drive to Santa Barbara and Ventura is a bonus. Did not want to leave at all. As a family we agreed we want to make it an annual trip. Carpenteria was exactly what we needed.

    We didn't stay at Carpinteria for sight seeing.

    We didn't stay at Carpinteria for sight seeing. We only spent the night for the room and drove to Santa Barabara instead. My husband and I wanted a romantic weekend getaway and found Carpinteria had more economical hotel to spend the night than Santa Barbara.

    This place is a gem, the staff was so kind and so sweet. The rooms are so clean it feels like a little family. The restaurant is the best food I had in a while. The scallops were so good, the best I ever had. The bed was so comfortable we slept great, my son said this was the best be he ever slept on from a hotel. The only one suggestion is that around the pool area they should clean the concrete lots of poop from the birds. Truly a little gem getaway.

    The location right on the ocean was wonderful. The pool looked nice. I believe that all rooms have an ocean view though ours was mostly obstructed by the stairs, but we knew this upon booking. Having the ocean right there is this hotel’s saving grace. The garden was lovely. The pool was clean. The pillow was SO perfect. And the room smelled really clean when we entered.

    The hotel is well situated in Carpinteria, close to the downtown part. It was clean and very comfortable in the room. They even give you a little free breakfast in the morning (tea/coffee and bagel/toast/cereal). All rooms are on ground level.

    Motel 6 South in Carpinteria is our "go to" for Carp. The facilities are clean, and the location is premium. We park our vehicle and bike all around town. The beach, restaurants and shopping are all very accessible in Carpinteria.

    I liked the location, I liked the dog walking stations conveniently located, and the room was adequately clean when I arrived. I also like that dogs stay for free which is the reason I picked Motel 6 - it is dog friendly.

    There was nothing that we could like about this hotel. We did not stay here as it was uninhabitable. MOTEL 6 is right across the street and is a DREAM compared to this place. It is also $100+ cheaper per night.
