Great location & amenities

The rooms were nice, comfortable and recently updated. The rooftop bar & grill were fabulous for getting some food & drinks without driving. Convenient location near shops/restaurants & major streets. A bit to the expensive side for our family visit, but otherwise was great!

Disliked: Cleanliness
It was a busy Labor Day weekend, so requesting any amenities upon check-in was understandably denied. First thing we noticed was dirty socks underneath the cabinet. We were too tired to complain after the long drive. The busy weekend also meant the property was pretty loud with kids running around. Walls are very thin, and they were heard running and screaming throughout the night.

Good: Very nice hotel, friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms. Convenient to UCSB, and close to shopping/dining. Not so good: Hotel has plenty of parking, and with the high price of the rooms parking should be free (but is not). Rooms have cheap, scratchy toilet paper - again, given the high price per night they could do better.

Missed on the description that they actually charge $15 for parking. Unfortunately the room above us had kids running around it seemed like all day and night, non stop while we were in the room at least. We asked the front desk and they said they can’t do anything about it nor even politely ask them to keep in mind to considers others are below them, unless it’s after 10pm. So much for being able to rest in your room.
