There was a cute little cafe on site, had an aviary too! Was about $50 more than we normally spend when in Santa Barbara. It’s literally across the street from the Pueblo clinic. And we got a free bottle of bubbly. Would definitely stay here again. The room was super clean!

The property is very old and outdated but surprisingly exceptionally clean(except the carpet). Parking is sparse, just one spot per unit(not dedicated) so stay parked! The staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel(motel really) is 7-9min drive to State Street shops and Wharf. So not really very close. The on site restaurant is very popular with locals/regulars so I think that says something. Your breakfast is not included like a typical Best Western, just a note!
