I booked for a night which was not cheap (it’s okay) but the fact as soon I walked in with my sister the front desk guy don’t recall his name (had long hair w/ a beard) looked at us from head to toe and seemed in a bad mood. Whatever wasn’t the greeting I was expecting! Hotel was old fashioned, bathroom smelled a lot of Clorox within few hrs it went away.
Definitely not staying there again.
Great location close to freeway but we did not hear any noise. Close to the downtown area where there’s plentiful of food choices. The beach was also no more than 5-10 minutes away.
After a long day out , my family and I came back to the room we were staying in and it had not been cleaned and I asked about it and was told how would they know we were out. I have never had to ask to have my my room cleaned and usually it's just a simple knock on the door to see nobody is in at the time for cleaning of the room. We ended up having to be out of the room another hour or so until they cleaned the room.😞
The hotel is well maintained, check in was fast, the bed, pillows and linens were feather free. Decaf coffee and tea were available in the lobby. The tub faucet dripped even if you turn it tight. Front desk person took care of that after we reported it to him. Staff are friendly, breakfast served hot and enough for their guests. Overall, we will book at this hotel again as our stay was pleasant.
Location was convenient. We stayed there for one night on our way from LA to Santa Barbara. Room was nice and comfortable. Breakfast was kind of chaotic and crowded. Front desk workers were helpful and friendly.
