"What a gem! If we find a reason to be in Santa Barbara again, we will come back! The only reason for the 1 4-star rating had to do with our front door. The door latching mechanism was not secure - it required a few really hard shoves to really get it closed. Everything else was amazing from check in to good night of sleep to check out. Thank you!"

The rooms are a nice size, the bed was comfortable and it was just what we needed for a weekend away. The location is really great. It’s close to shopping and restaurants on State Street, wine tasting rooms, and lots of great coffee shops. We loved walking around the neighborhood and would definitely stay here again. "

"We had a great stay at the Harbor View Inn. We booked a City Room, 1 King Bed, Balcony, City View. Pros: Our room was a fantastic room. Although a little on the small side, it seemed to be remodeled recently and we enjoyed the newness. The bathroom was also on the smaller side but very nice. The shower provided a nice showering experience, which I love after a long day of sightseeing. Cons: There was no view of any sort. Our balcony looked directly across the street into someone else's room....
