I didn’t like stairs leading to our upstairs room wasn’t maintained & was dirty. Lots of Families were in town to drop off their College aged kids attending UCSB and surrounding Hotels seemed priced high to take advantage of the high number of people.

I realize a temporary issue BUT the hotel should have planned better when installing new curtains. The chemical smell was awful and I was not the only guest who complained about it. We deserved more than apology. Hopefully the chemicals were not toxic breathing them for three days.

Great service, super clean and comfortable rooms. Delicious breakfast with many food choices for everyone with many sitting areas inside and outdoors. Loved the beautiful gardens they have all over! Very relaxing and quiet hotel and only few minutes from Santa Barbara and a couple blocks walking distance to many restaurants and stores.Highly recommended!
