My stay at Motel 6 Santa Maria, CA – North was solid for a budget-friendly stop. The room was clean, check-in was quick, and the staff was polite. It’s a no-frills place, but it got the job done for a short stay, and the location made it convenient for getting back on the road.

Friendly night staff, not so much for the day clerk. Housekeeping was friendly and thorough. I loved that I could have my dog with me. Only issue I had was someone knocked on my door late at night and before I could do anything my 9 year old son answered it. There was a man asking for his mom or dad. When I walked out he asked me for "uppers", which I didn't appreciate. However, being a single mom, I'm pretty aware and self confident so it didn't change my overall feeling of safety. Will stay here again.
