Lovely clean, very well kept hotel in a safe mostly residential community. Very reasonably priced and everyone connected with the hotel was very kind, friendly, and hard-working. However, it is not within walking distance of any of the events, etc. in Santa Barbara. We had to take an Uber everywhere.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
A nice place overall, with a 'but.' Actually more an efficiency apartment than a hotel room, with a full, usable dinette and kitchen. The 'but' is that the AC didn't put out any cold air. The outside temperature was cool, and the room had good-sized windows that opened, and there was a ceiling fan, so we didn't suffer. The area was lovely -- almost any place in Santa Barbara is, and this was residential. Even with open windows, it was pretty quiet.
