Jesus, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Calm place to stay at but parking lot did get full and couldn’t find a place to park.
Lizeth Vanelly, 3-night trip

Ok place.
Steven, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Housekeeping staff were great and definitely work hard.
Terry, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff was friendly and everything was newly remodeled which made enjoying the space easy. As someone who traveled to Santa Barbara frequently in the past, I would never rent a hotel because pricing for this is more than the gas from my previous home. However, the price to quality ratio for this property would definitely have me rebook if I needed to stay in the area again in the future. I’m glad Expedia was able to show me this place.
Sharmaine, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The bathtubs have getting on horses lv
john, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Check in was easy and staff were polite. The room, shower, and floors were clean. The bed was comfortable. Location was good. We had to cancel at the last minute our last night that we had booked due to having to leave town earlier than expected. The staff were very gracious to not charge us even at the last minute. This was an unexpected surprise and was greatly appreciated.
Johnny, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Clean room and fresh linens. The only thing i don't like is the jetted bathtub is broken. They should fixed it before guest accommodation.
Jogie, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The bed was really comfy
Loretta, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The bed was too small. It said queen but it looked like a full size bed. The room had an odor which was also in the bed. Luckily I brought my own blankets and pillows. The room just felt unclean. The staff were very loud in the morning. I will not be staying there again.
LON, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Similar price to the Motel 6 across the street but way nicer, quieter and friendlier staff.
Eli, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Easy access to dinner options.
Elizabeth, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

The room was clean but missing base boards, terrible peeling paint throughout, damaged nightstands and phone cords stuffed into drawer while still plugged into wall. No phone.
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Clean room! Lady who check us in was helpful did a quick upgrade. Nice and quiet area. When I ask why the room didn't get service next day a guy told me I have to call and request it. Very awkward!I just ask for 2 more towels and left. You shouldn't ask for service, it should have been included!
Agustín, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Very accomodating for later check ins. Polite friendly staff
Sandra, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Has potential, but in serious need of painting walls and repairing baseboard. It is soundproof and good location.
Kay, 2-night trip
