Had the best time, the room was so modern and spacious while the outside balcony gave it the ultimate vacation experience, felt at ease. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was a little on the short side, but I thought the location, the outdoor patios and pool were such a great addition to our stay. Hope to stay here again.

Great staff and great location. Depending on when you stay it can get really pricey. You pay for location and even then I don’t think it was worth it. Pool was nice and breakfast was decent.

This is the perfect spot for a slow Santa Barbara weekend. It’s perfectly located to the beach, state street, and multiple restaurants! Their breakfast is good and they offer gluten free bread! Shout out to Jorge who gave us a thorough review of restaurant our first night. The rooms are spacious, the only downside is the small shower stalls, but the rest of the property more than makes up for it!

All of the staff, from front of house, to cleaning and maintenance were lovely. Smiling and saying hello when ever you came into contact. The room was clean, a good size and had everything we needed. The pool area was great as was the location. Breakfast was lovely, fresh bagels, bread, muffins, doughnuts, boiled eggs and a selection of fruits, yoghurts, cereal and porridge. You could also take it up to your room. Evenings were a pleasant surprise when there was complimentary wine, lemonade, cheese and biscuits. Would certainly recommend the hotel.
