The property is on State St and is a short driving distance to the beach. There are numerous restaurants and bars in walking distance to the property. I didnt like that the room had a musty stinch that went away once the air conditioner was on. Cleanliness of the room was okay and the bed was comfortability was okay.

Extremely expensive for such a low-quality room. No hair dryer, no microwave, the room is very small — we could only open our suitcase in the bathroom.

Easily the most uncomfortable bed I’ve ever slept in, and I’ve stayed in $10 a night hotels in rural China. The air conditioning made a terrible racket. But it’s in Santa Barbara, and it’s a weekend in July, so almost $300 a night. For the most basic of rooms. An uncomfortable bed made of worn springs, a noisy AC unit, and a basic bathroom with okay water pressure (but plenty of hot water).

The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. Safe area. But it was very bright light from outside at night. I had to wear sleeping mask.

We got there at 8pm and we needed help to carry our cases upstairs. Elizebeth was helpful and carried them for us. Next I ck the bed and the sheets have a large discolored area on them. Elizebeth brings new sheets and that’s when we found the mattress cover had blood on it. The cleaning staff needs to be monitored as this is just laziness and most disturbing. Elizabeth did the best she could with no other staff available. I was offered 20% back at the hotel. That was it nothing more. Hotel.com could take responsibility and adjust that small refund but no that didn’t happen.

Fairly clean. Was in town for a wedding and needed affordable accomodation. I had a fridge but no microwave which was sad. But the location was close to some nice stores and groceries.
