Room was very clean but had minimal furniture. No place to lay out clothes. For a stop by stay it is an excellent choice having very good price and very clean room. Staff was also friendly and There was a Dennys and Jack in the Box within a 3 minute walk.

Another great stay at the best motel 6 in SM. I love that the owner and his staff are always helpful and attentive. 24/7 Very secure location, great parking right next to room. Spacious room with fridge/Microwave, great shower. It's walkable to food and right next to highway. Didnt use the pool but it looks sparkling clean. This is my favorite motel 6 out of MANY I've stayed in with my pet. Look forward to my next Santa Maria assignment.

Excellent Motel 6! I was traveling for work with my cat, and my RV/van ended up being damaged by the mechanic, so I had to book a pretty long stay. And, of course, options are limited. But, even without a pet, I would choose this place! Everythibg was clean and confortable. The parking was right outside the room. The owner is a great guy who is very attentive and welcoming. I even had a work package delivered with no problem. And the price was right! Definitely recommend.
