Absolutely loved this place! Super cute and charming but still modern. It was close enough to walk around town for shopping and dining but also felt secluded. The staff is sweet and welcoming. We also loved being able to watch a movie with streaming instead of just basic cable at “normal” hotels. The breakfast was also great! Can’t wait to come back!

Celebrated my 70th birthday with my girls. Upon arrival Brenden was extremely friendly and helpful. We stayed in the 4 person suite , the room was spacious and very clean . He even had a bottle of champagne chilling for us. Can’t say enough! Thanks for adding to my wonderful celebration weekend .

We loved our stay at Hideaway. The staff was super friendly. It was our first time in Santa Barbara, so they gave us suggestions on what to do. Other reviews said the parking was tight and the rooms were loud, which are somewhat true, but it didn’t affect us. Each room gets 1 parking spot, and the property is located on a somewhat busy road, but if you know how to back into a spot for easier getaway and aren’t hanging around your room in the afternoon/early evening, then the parking and noise shouldn’t bother you. We loved it and honestly wish we could have stayed longer. We can’t wait to go back to Hideaway.

Very conveniently located, close to the beach and downtown as well. The room was cute. However, the towels were dirty and the rug as well. Although the breakfast was included and supposed to be served between 8 and 10, at 8:20, when we arrived one morning, the breakfast was still not ready and everybody was waiting at the tables. We decided to go somewhere else to eat despite that we had to pay for it.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
This place has so much potential but seems mismanaged. Rooms are dirty, smelled like Fabulosa cleaner the entire stay. Air vent was dusty and dirty, sink had crusty yellow hard water stains, floors were sticky, rug was filthy, end tables were sticky. The rooms are so close together you can hear EVERYTHING which wasn’t really an issue until the upstairs guests got home at 10:15pm and were loudly walking around their room for an hour while our 5-month old baby tried to sleep. It’s a shame because it’s a fairly central location to the Funk Zone and State St. It was also way overpriced for what we got. Read the reviews before you book this place— I hope they are able to turn it around.

Cute place centrally located!

Cute little place off of a Main Street, good location walking distance from the water. Service was lovely and the included breakfast was nice! The room was also nice and renovated. Maintenance was a bit odd- people were in our room when we checked in and in the morning, someone was cleaning our balcony, which was located next to two big glass doors next to the bed. We thought it was a little expensive for the lack of amenities.
