Nice place at a good price.

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly. The only complaint I would have was the water temperature in the shower was hard to get hot water then regulate it.

Meh. But fine to crash for the night.

Carpinteria is an expensive area, and this is a budget place -great for a night crash. Ask to have a room away from the road/highway for more quiet. Nice staff. Very budget rooms. Clean, rooms showing their age.
