Holiday Inn Express & Suites Carpinteria by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is aa nice location in carpenteria, close enough to everything yet just a little away from all the activities. The rooms are very clean with all the amenities one could need, a small refrigerator, microwave and tv. There’s a desk too. The beds are very comfortable. Staff is professional. The pool also has a hot jacuzzi and it’s kept nicely! I will come back to the location and would definitely recommend to anyone coming this way!"
