Greetings from the staff, who helped accommodate us since we were running a 1/2 marathon, and let us check out a few minutes late. The room was spotless and in excellent condition. The proximity to the beach and restaurants was spot on. Would highly recommend to anyone and would definitely stay again.

Santa Barbara is a beautiful town, nice weather weekend and all that, but all things consider it still way overprized, we just had to be there and that's the only reason I booked it for that ridiculous prize.

Nice hotel but the room was very small, bathroom wasn’t great and we weren’t able to checkout late even by 30 mins without being charged an additional night. The area was very convenient but not worth the price.
