Lemon Tree Inn
"There was an overwhelming smell of mildew (no, not just musty). The walls and surfaces were visibly dirty.

Recent Santa Barbara hotel reviews by fellow wanderers

Hotel Santa Barbara
"Great downtown property tastefully designed, fresh and clean throughout. My room was compact, comfortable yet tight, so thankfully the downstairs lobby had so many great spots to sit and feel by yourself for a quick business zoom. The property is as walkable as you can get with groceries, dinner of many varieties, theater, a beach walk, and a barely housed busquer belting out rock n’ roll ballads with his bike-pulled speaker and seriously gifted guitar skills all are within minutes from your door."
