It was located in a safe area as it is Santa Barbara. But it is reall y a motel and very basic! It had a clean bed and bath in one room but the second room was next to the parking lot and felt unsafe!

All the staff we dealt with were very nice, including the front desk staff and the breakfast servers. And speaking of the (included) breakfast, it was excellent: good buffet-style food and a nice variety--no complaints!

Our overall stay was great. The staff for breakfast and the front services were all friendly and helpful in accommodating us. The room we checked in was clean and spacious. The only problem was the bathroom area. It was slippery. My partner slipped and hit his head and made a dent on the shower wall. We mentioned this to the manager and he assured us that we won’t get charged because of the accident. We suggested to have all their bathrooms non-slipped because we noticed that there were lots of older people staying that could have gotten into an accident. Apparently, you can request to have a non-slip bathroom. However, we did not know about that. We assumed the bathrooms have some mat to prevent fall. Hopefully, they will check all the rooms and make changes for the safety of the future guests. Overall, this is a great hotel to stay.
