Best Western Plus Carpinteria Inn

"Best Western Plus never disappoint us. We know the room is clean, the staff is helpful and friendly. Yes, the coffee is good. We like Carpinteria. "

The Milo

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was amazing. They made my wife and I feel so special on our honeymoon. They ordered us a bottle of champagne, it wasn’t something they carried at their lobby market place either. Valet was so accommodating and polite. The room was so clean with a great view of the ocean. They conveniently kept great communication through text (my preferred method. Provided great recommendations of things to do for us. The outdoor patio area had fire pits for us to relax at too. I could go on and on. If you are looking for a great experience I highly recommend The Milo. "
