"On previous trips to Santa Barbara we’ve stayed closer to the beach, but for this mother/daughter trip with an independent teen I wanted to be close enough to Street street for my daughter to browse shops while I worked. Best. Location. Ever. Drift opens directly onto the first few blocks of State street which are closed to through traffic. It’s vibrant, lively and safe.

8.0 out of 10, Very Good, (1)
"Really awesome experience. Very modern facilities. However, picture on VRBO misrepresents the room you actually get.
