Nice room with beautiful view from balcony. Good location and good breakfast. Problem was with the water. It had a horrible smell. Also, it took a long time to get hot, at least five minutes! Doors and faucets were very difficult to open. Not sure if I’d return because these reasons. Too bad.

It's convenient if your wanting be close to the beach and pier but its across the street from the park with a lot of homeless ppl. The hotel was clean and breakfast was good. Just a bit older and small. We stayed for a night, enjoying the beach front activities and didnt spending a lot of time in the room. So it woeked out for us.

It's important to start with the fact the staff were super and location is great. We travel to Santa Barbara fairly often and these three reasons are why we will not stay here again: 1) AC in our unit did not work (staff moved us to a nice room with a functioning unit, but did not have the view of our original). 2) Noise (external) from the main street - if you have a room facing the ocean, the street noise is substantial at night. 3) Noise (internal) - while oddly our second room (with the functioning AC) was quieter (we had the park view side of the building) - there was a guy coughing in the next room over and it sounded like he was in our room.
