“Okay for short stay in Santa Barbara”

Oct 25, 2025LA_Engineer

Well, I chose this hotel based on the Tripadvisor high rating. I would say this hotel is a bit average for a $190 hotel (including taxes). The TV was a bit difficult to use - surprisingly. The bathroom was dated, but good hot water and large size. Staff is excellent, which increased the rating to good.

“Excellent place to stay!”

Great location, huge bedrooms, incredibly comfortable beds, we loved our stay here! Staff at the fron desk was very friendly and breakfasta at Live Oak Cafe was great. We will surely return.

“Lovely hotel :)”

What a lovely little hotel. We stayed here for 3 nights and could not fault it. Reception were friendly. The room was very clean, with everything you could need and a nice little view over the swimming pool. Beds very comfortable and plenty of space. I have only marked the hotel down 1 star due to the bar area closing early and then closing again the next day at 3pm. There isn't much around the area so unless you drive, you are quite secluded especially if the bar is shut. The food itself for breakfast was lovely, huge portions. We would stay here again as we had a car so no issues getting around.
