Motel 6

Hmm, location is good, close to wineries, in between Los Olivos, Solvang and Lompoc, right off the 101 in Buellton. Functional, simple, almost clean room (I love the fake wood floors that are easy to clean rather than the dirty carpet you see in every motel). Free ice from the machine and free coffee in the morning. They also have a pool, but I would ask my doctor if it’s a good idea to get in that water. Safe and quiet with the window closed.
Very expensive because of the location, especially on weekends and worse on holidays.(it was our last choice and I liked that we didn’t have to drive too much around, but I’m ashamed to say how much we paid!)

I know this is Motel 6 and things are suppose to be basic but, this is crazy…
1. Price doubles on friday/sat.so much for value
2. Dirty… Trash all over grounds
4. Burn holes from cigarettes in comforters
5. Hard lumpy beds
For a few bucks more, you can get a much nicer place in Solvang… Ive never stayed at a «Rent by the hour» place, but if I had this is what i would have imagined it to be. Never again!

Hahaha! Well… Fake wood floors! Bugs on the floor and wall! Telling me I need to pay for WiFi???
CRAP HOLE!!! RUDE FRONT DESK!!!
I don’t even wanna give it a 1 rating.

Walls are so sensitive you can literally hear the people next doors’ conversation. It was like they’re in the same room as you! Do not recommend this place! They need to invest in better wall structure.

Beds matres are hard as hell, noisy resly small room for 2 beds no I didnt like, no coffee, theres limited parking I olmost park outside theh hotel too expesive, only 1 soap for 2 people

This motel 6 was a great stay. Nothing spectacular but everything was modern and nice. Our room had a nice little table and side couch perfect for dinner and lounging. Check in was fast and easy, the manager George was so nice he made me feel very welcomed. There’s coffee in the lobby in the morning.

We’re PCS’ing with 2 kids a great Dane and a cat. We stopped in to this motel 6 because it’s pet friendly but we weren’t expecting much. I was pleasantly surprised! It’s very clean and quiet, the man at the front desk was very nice and helpful. They had plenty of parking which was a huge relief because we have a truck with a car hauler. It is a bit sparse but it’s a motel, what do you expect? We had extra pillows and blankets with us and did just fine!

Stopped in, plenty of space available. parking close and has a pool and is safe.
We stayed up stairs and slept like bears. nice clean pool and on sight employees that are friendly and so helpful. I would stay here again and recommend them to anyone who is heading to Solvang. much cheaper to stay here than in Solvang too. close to eateries; taco bell, carls junior, Andersen resturant. And freeways. Kid friendly and near a movie theater and near next door to a McDonald.

I can’t sleep! Near a freeway.
When we arrived there were cops searching someone’s van at the parking lot next to the motel.
Our «non-​smoking» room smells like smoke and my sinus’ is acting up. Something is making me feel all stuffed up. Not sure if it is the air, the smoke or the material on this bed.
The bed is a platform bed. Not very comfortable.
I didn’t really expect much for a Motel 6 and this was a spontaneous trip.
The good: The décor has improved. It has wooden floors in the room but no blow dryer boo.
I won’t stay here again though.

This has been the nicest Motel 6 I have ever stayed at. They have wood flooring and the whole place is modernized. The sheets were clean and the room smelled very fresh. The prices are also very reasonable. I highly recommend this place.

Just trust me, don’t book this place. We stayed last night and I feel hungover today, even though there was no drinking going on. Here’s the laundry list:
1. I asked for a quiet corner room (we were in town for work). They gave us the downstairs corner next to the stairs, where we got to hear the loud THUD of people going up and down behind our heads all night and morning. We asked for a different room — ANY room — and were told no. Guess who got zero sleep?
2. There are no blankets on the beds. No, really. There are two sheets and one sheet-​like coverlet. I repeat, no blankets.
3. I woke up covered in tiny, itchy red bites. Won’t say they have bed bugs, but they have bed bugs.
4. Toilet paper crumbs, dirt, and god knows what else in the bathroom. Wasn’t even swept, much less mopped. We kept our boots on all night and tried not to touch anything.
5. Not even a box of tissues. Seriously, no tissues? The towels were scarce and made of what felt like recycled cardboard.
We spent our entire night and most of today wishing we had just spent more.

We were desperate for a room due to a wine festival we went to that weekend so that is why we stayed there. The price I paid for one night was horrible and not worth 125. With that being said. When I went to check in the lady informed me I didn’t have a reservation. I had done it through
. I had to pull up my email and inform her I have a confirmation. She was nice enough to find us a room ASAP. So as we get up there the cleaning crew was there and told us the room wasn’t ready The front desk lady had informed us it was. My husband had to use the restroom and she said the plumber was coming to fix it. I didn’t have time to go downstairs so I just told them I would be back in a few hours.
We left to enjoy our wine tasting festival and returned to our room in the evening and to our dismay when we went to use the restroom they had never cleaned it and there was still something very nasty in there. I called up the clerk and was clearly upset all he said is the cleaning crew was gone and he would let the manager know in the morning. To flush it and see if it would go down. The smell was horrible and if we could have left that night we would have but were stuck there till the morning. Never ever will I stay at a Motel 6! I would have preferred sleeping in our car. I had even Unilocal their reviews before booking it and thought well not too bad and I can’t be picky. Umm YES for 125 you at least expect it to be clean!

Simple, clean rooms. A little cluttered and you can hear the freeway. Overall, a good room to stay for the price.

Okay… Let’s just remind ourselves this is a motel 6. Not a lot to be expected. That being said, here’s my review.
This one has verdantly be updated and be more modern in the rooms. However, the décor is completely unfunctional. The beds suck. There is not closet, only 1 washcloth and no coffee maker or coffee at the front.
The rooms are tiny with this pointless and unless little shelf hanging on the wall and this bulky towel holder taking up most the kitchen sink. It’s just a really bad layout and design.
Now for the pool… Freezing cold and no spa! Lame!!!
Wifi — - I’ve stayed in many hotels and motels in the past 8 years and this is the first one that has charged us to have wifi in our room! It’s freaking 2014 people!
I called the front to asked if I could get another pillow… He told
Me I needed to come get it myself! Umm… Also a first for me at a motel/​hotel.
Only Pro: the room was very clean.
Needless to say… Spend the extra $ 50 and go somewhere less.

Again… it’s a Motel 6 so the expectations weren’t exactly high to begin with… but it is a great value when wine tasting in Solvang/​Los Olivos! With taxes we were able to reserve a room with 1 queen bed for around $ 150/​night (pre tax price was around $ 120 I think). Book thru
to get the best rates. I believe that most if not all of the rooms here have been remodeled. They are TINY but have new fixtures and furniture. There was no closet and no dresser, but they did have built-​ins with hangers and shelving (a space saving move no doubt.) The pool is reasonably nice and clean. The front desk staff was very nice and provided friendly service. The negatives? Towels are scratchy, there’s no refrigerator in the room, and motel doesn’t provide shampoo or lotion. There isn’t even a coffee maker in the room. And bring your own hair dryer if you need it! But, It was quiet as we were luckily on the side NOT facing the highway — get that location if you can! It’s walking distance to a grocery store and several little café’s and restaurants. Only about an 8-​min drive into Solvang downtown, and about a $ 35 cab ride up in to Los Olivos. This motel is no Four Seasons but it will do when you want to be close to wine tasting and have a clean place to sleep and shower. I also loved that checkout wasn’t till noon. And it is way better than the Days Inn just around the corner, where we’ve also stayed.

My first impression of this place, clean. You drive up and the place looks nice and clean. George in the front lobby is nice and friendly, made you feel welcome and explained the grounds (pool location, pet area, parking).
The room was nothing like the pictures on the web/yelp/hotels.com, those were outdated, the room my wife I got was updated. Freshly painted walls, wood laminate floors, flat screen TV and cold air conditioning. For the price you can’t go wrong, this place is literally 10 minutes from Solvang.
The room was small, but more than enough to accommodate my wife and I and our two small dogs. My wife and I didn’t experience any of the issues others wrote about. I would recommend this to anyone traveling with their pets.

My parents aren’t on Unilocal,but she got BED BUGS Room 122. May 25^th, 2014. On top of that, Corporate just won’t return any calls. I’m keeping this review short since it’s not me who stayed there.

There were several good things about this motel that I wish had been my full experience … I knew it was simple and basic, I wasn’t expecting a lot and was pleasantly surprised… the new remodel is very functional and clean, the bed was comfortable, the staff were very nice; I had everything I needed except TIME TO SLEEP. This is not a place to get any sleep so don’t plan on that being part of your stay and you’ll enjoy it. Great for drinkers, talkers and TV watchers. The walls both internal and external are paper thin… between the parties and loud TV watchers up till 3am and the 6am loud impassioned very personal conversation I could hear every word of in the room next to mine I could only get a few hours sleep. I left exhausted and defeated and $ 250 poorer. Very bummed at the shitty motel design /​construction.

This Motel 6 is a really great place to stay. As I walked up to my room, a group of college kids drank some beer and laughed by the pool. When I opened the door to my room, I was quite impressed when I entered room 221. It’s obviously been remodeled recently. The walls are painted with a vibrant orange theme, and there’s a little work area with a comfy couch that’s quite nice to write emails at. There’s even a data hub beneath the flat-​screen television set up. It’s got many various ports for you to plug your various external devices into. As cable still sucks, next time I’ll remember to bring my Chromecast and stream Netflix. The air conditioning unit cranks out enough cold air to make even the warmest of people get up in the middle of the night to shut it off. Brrrrr!
The place is located less than a half mile from the famed Anderson’s, the home of Split Pea Soup. I didn’t realize I could walk over there when I drove out for dinner after resting a bit. There’s actually a bunch of restaurants just down the street. Several options well within walking distance. While it’s more costly than some of the other Motel 6 stays I’ve had, my total bill came up to a quite reasonable $ 117.01. I feel it’s still less expensive than the other places around here. Especially with the Mac & Cheese festival going on this weekend.
So, in conclusion, the bed was comfy, the room was clean, and I’ll most definitely be coming back. Until I get a big fat raise, or hit the jackpot in the lottery, Motel 6 will always be my room of choice on my adventures because it really does fit within my budget.
