I have stayed at Hilton Garden Inn in Goleta several times. The facility is always nice and clean. Staff is great and friendly. One thing I noticed this last time I stayed, I got charged for parking. Is that something new?? I was never charged for parking the past previous times.

The facilities were clean but the area is extremely noisy. You can hear all the traffic noise from the nearby intersection. Also, I stayed on the 2nd floor, you can hear every single footstep from the 3rd floor room above. I would stay here again, but I would request a room on the top floor at the corner away from the intersection.
