Welcome to The Days Inn And Suites, in the Heart of Santa Barbara. Located in downtown Santa Barbara on State Street, the Art Deco inspired hotel has been welcoming guests for more than 40 years. This vibrant part of the community is just a few blocks from the beach and offers a restful retreat after a day well-spent boutique-hopping through some of the countrys most upscale retail shops, touring the historic Santa Barbara Art-scape, catching a show at the Granada, Lobero or Arlington Theatres or simply doing nothing and soaking in some sun poolside. Daybreak breakfast is complimentary. Wireless internet is provided in all rooms and guest common areas. Rollaways available for some rooms for a 15 USD fee. Hotel has 2 covered parking garages and exterior parking lot that allows for bus or truck parking.

weekend getaway

Hotel room was small but this was expected since it was the cheapest price we could find.for new years.weekend. when we came in the room smelled of cleaning products. super strong smell. I guess that's a good sign that the room was cleaned but the smell gave me a headache. the lamps and mirrors had cracks. probably should be replaced. the heater and fridge were super loud and made it difficult to sleep at night. bed was lumpy. I guess that's what you get for $90 a night.in Santa Barbara. Location was awesome though. within walking distance to downtown and also within walking distance to the Santa Barbara.mission in the opposite direction.

Good, cheap, decent hotel

Nothing very exciting. Stayed at this hotel because it was cheap, close to State Street, and available. We tried to get a late check-out, which was flatly denied. No major issues. The room was comfortable and everything was decent. I would recommend it if you're on a budget.

Barely Acceptable - Don't go here

Noisy, so-so cleanliness, could use a coat of paint, mediocre continental breakfast (limited to coffee and danish), bed was worn out years ago, location not convenient to anything. Not comfortable, not relaxing. I can't comprehend how it could be rated three diamonds by AAA. I would rate it one diamond. Hotel staff very friendly and helpful.

Good Location for The $

Check in was easy and quick. Rates were better than most in the area. Close enough to all the nightlife of State St. Room was ordinary, but clean. Staff was helpful and polite. Would stay again. Free interenet!

Days Inn Santa Barbara

I went to see a Steely Dan show in Santa Barbara. After researching the high cost of lodging in the area, I decided on a deal with [...] at the Days Inn. The building looked to be around 50 years old. It wasn't in terribly bad shape, but it didn't look like it was worth the nightly charge either. I first was checked into a room with a failing air conditioner. After a couple of hours, I complained to the management and they gave me a new room. Allegedly, I should have never been given the original room I was issued. The new room was only slightly better. The air conditioner worked, but not to my standards. I guess being from Las Vegas, I require an air conditioner that can really pump out the cold air. That second air conditioner wouldn't last a day in Vegas. I checked out the next morning and headed back to Vegas. Overall, it was okay, but I am not so sure I would stay there again. Santa Barbara is awfully expensive.

The Santa Barbara Bowl where I attended a Steely Dan concert is just a short 20 minute walk away from the property.

Served the purpose

We stayed here because we went to the Janet Jackson concert at the Santa Barbara Bowl. The rooms were fine, nothing special. The staff was nice and you are about 7 blocks from downtown. We took a cab to the concert ($10). All was good
