Like the pool seating with the grass area. Wish there had been pool towels regularly stocked. Multiple times during our stay they had run out. Dog barked next door incessantly. No breakfast due to construction.

This hotel exceeded my expectations It has been fully remodeled and updated. The beds are comfortable, the rooms are clean, and it was across the street from the one mall in Santa Barbara, which offered several dining options. I would definitely stay here again.

Sadly, on my first night there, I realized my handicapped friend needed a wheelchair accessible room. Staff were able to accommodate the room change the next day. There is a mall across the street which has restaurants, groceries, etc. But please guest services, if you are sick stay home 🙏

Disappointed
Have stayed at this hotel several times through out the years. This time had the worst room, next to a supply room and laundry. The patio faced the parking lot, not somewhere you want yo relax with a cup of coffee. Room was basic

Disappointed
The room was very outdated. I was under the impression that we booked a refurbished room but ours was not in updated condition. Beds were not comfortable, air conditioner was VERY LOUD, buzzing sound all night, carpet was dirty and our kids feet were black from walking on the rug. Pool and spa were nice. Sliding door to grass area was convenient and fun for kids to go outside. Location convenient to UCSB, SBCC, and downtown.

We stayed on the refurbished side which was nice. Our room had a patio that led to the pool and jacuzzi which would had been wonderful if the pool and jacuzzi were in service. They were gated and under construction so that sucked. I wish the property had mentioned that upon booking because that was the selling point for me. The walls are very thin and the staffs radios are super loud. Check out is at 11 that’s nice however cleaning starts around 7 so might as well get up because it’s LOUD! Not sure if I’d stay again unfortunately.
