Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Santa Barbara Inn was a great location. Literally across the street from the beach & ocean. Prob a 15 min walking distance to the wharf and lower State Street (downtown). Most restaurants are located down the street. But they have a delicious restaurant, Convivo on the property. Very small pool but if you want to swim in the ocean, it’s steps away. The value was great for the location.

Beautiful property and location. Clean. Wish we could have made coffee/tea in the room. They only offered coffee in the lobby, no tea. Hotel and valet staff were excellent, but hostess at Convivo (the restaurant) was not accommodating and had a bad attitude.
