We loved our 2-night stay. The rooms are very large for the price you pay. You are only a few minutes walk from a lot of great restaurants, as well as the beach. We also enjoyed using the hot tub.

Would definitely stay here again! The location is very convenient. The beach, restaurants, and shops are a short walk away. The hotel also has bikes available for guests. The property is clean and well kept. The staff members were very friendly and helpful. The pool is heated. We took advantage of the jacuzzi. We enjoyed the free happy hour and the free breakfast. Hope to stay longer next time.

Clean rooms and bathroom, in wall key safe, quiet place, other than no water gutter pipes to move the water thru the pipes, heavy rain all u hear is a waterfall from the gutters, electric car charger, one car at a time. Breakfast very limited. Walking distance to wharf, downtown about 15 minute walk. If u want quiet, this place is it.

How amazing our stay is. Arron at the front desk gave us a very warm welcome, and recommended some good places to visit in Santa Barbara. The hotel has amazing view, beautiful garden, and really nice pools. Our room is clean and spacious too. We love this hotel and will definitely come back in the future!👍❤️

The motel is very clean and has a very nice feel to it. There is tea in the lobby at all times. They also have a happy hour and bicycles to use. Parking was easy and included in the price of the inn. The inn was full and yet was extremely quiet which was wonderful. Our room, #4 had a living room area, a kitchen and a bedroom. The only caveats were that there was a loud humming sound outside of the bedroom, a generator, a large fridge, a dryer--that hummed loudly all night and kept us awake. The toilet needed to be readjusted to flush easier and there was a bright light outside of our room that shone brightly in the living room. The street has much traffic but we could not hear any car noise from our room. The inn was near the funk zone and within walking distance to the harbor which was delightful. Right behind the hotel is a park with The Carriage and Western Art Museum with beautiful saddles and an old western town. Really fun.
