Everything in the hotel shuts down at 10pm. It’s nice that it is quiet, but it would be nice to be able to sit on the patio and relax at night. The rooms are maybe big enough for two people to shuffle around, but really they are for one person. Also, when you call the front desk, they are unresponsive. It’s better to just walk down to the desk. Otherwise, the area is really nice and the hotel is fine.

Room was TOO SMALL, good location
Our room was so small you couldn't not trip over the bed or desk trying to get around. Barely room to go through your bag. Weirdly, the bathroom could have been much smaller to make the actually room bigger and easier to maneuver. We didn't find the bag valet under the bed until we were leaving. The temperature gauge wasn't correct and we were hot both nights, and the light in the mirror didn't work either. Staff was nice enough. I don't think Id stay here again.

Weekend getaway
Room is tiny tiny and said they were pet friendly. Unfortunately the room could not accommodate 2 people with 2 medium size dogs and luggage. One of our bath towels was stained with blood. The bathroom setup is tight. Had to go in the middle of night but the door is frosted glass so the light shone into room. Was not very private. Excellent toiletries though. The lobby was nice. Restaurant was good for breakfast. They had a dj playing music in the lobby Saturday evening. There was no where to take your dogs to the bathroom. So we had to walk them a ways to an area by the train which was a pain. We would not stay here again. If you’re alone it’s perfect. Near downtown and everything is in walking distance. We did have a small patio which was nice to have since it lacked space inside but it was hot and humid when we went so couldn’t exactly leave door open during the day but in evenings it was great.

You get to have a personalized attention on the small details-much nicer than big hotels. Excellent location-Short walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. Very clean and the overall environment of the hotel is relaxing. Many areas to chill, play or work in doors and outdoors. The rooms are very small tho, so it is not convenient for big families with lots of luggage.

A lovely choice staying downtown Santa Barbara
Happy with our stay! We got the room with two full beds. They were so comfy with excellent pillows. Bathroom was small but with good use of space and bathroom amenities. Excellent location close to the funk zone and the beach. Easy and friendly check in. Clean rooms and grounds. I like that the provide a filtered water station with glass carafe in the room to use through out your stay. A nice coffee/juice/tea station at the lobby in the am and pm. A small self serve food and drink area for drinks and snacks, including beer and wine. Loved that our room had a little outdoore patio seating and table. We enjoyed chatting having drinks and meals out there! Would recommend staying here.
