Overall the place was nice. The breakfast was a plus. Maybe it's just me but paying almost $300 for a motel is very high. Where I live the average hotel rate is about $125.

We found this room late in the day on a last-minute trip to Santa Barbara. The staff was friendly and site was clean. We would stay again.

Fine
This motel was clean and not terribly uncomfortable. But it was also dated and not particularly comfortable either. Given the price compared to other SB options. It was fine; and I would stay again under these same price conditions
