Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Fantastic location. Very friendly and helpful staff. Within walking distance of many shops and restaurants. Onsite parking. Bed was comfortable and bedding was clean.

Negative: Everything seemed a bit old and worn out. Windows in bathroom not seated securely. Carpet didn’t feel clean underneath my bare feet. WiFi was very weak and went out intermittently.

Summary: It was OK. Needs a facelift.

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: The hotel has a good position to easily reach Santa Barbara’s pier. The receptionist is kind and friendly. The room is quite an old-style one (especially the restroom) but is large and really clean.

Negative: We got assigned a room that looks very different with the one posted on Booking. It was really an Old-style one but was good anyway. Parking is free but there is not enough space for all the guests so you need to look for a parking all around the hotel if arrived after the 10pm. Quite bothering.

Summary: A good stay in Santa Barbara

Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller

Travel Purpose: business

Positive: The room itself is equipped nicely but not a good value considering other factors. It is clean and updated. Easy access for parking. Easy walk to central State street area.

Negative: There is little sound proofing between the rooms so beware. Staff did not return phone calls regarding WIFI not working. Not a great stay or value in my opinion. Lacking in responsive customer service options if you need something later in evening/earlier in am.
