Top Karpeles Manuscript Library Museum Hotel Reviews

Inn By The Harbor

8/10 Good

"Great location! Loved the staff. The free DVD’s was great and we Loved the free bikes!!!"

Sandpiper Lodge

8/10 Good

"The room was older but okay everything appear to be clean.tge bedding was clean the shower area need too have new caulking but it was clean and I don't likebplacescwhere there are no doors so if someone gets up and turn on the light in disturbs the sleeping person and thats not cool...othe then that it was okay"

The Milo

8/10 Good

"The grounds were quite nice and the hotel ideally located right across from beach. It is so impressive when you approach the hotel. I think I expected a property that was more like a Hilton etc… that was my issue. I did find it to be a nice property and the bikes were nice to be able to use at no charge. My only wish would have been a more modernized AC system. Overall I would recommend!"

The Franciscan Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed the breakfast, especially the delicious egg bites. My room was quiet, had everything I needed and was steps from the pool. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool for some down time after touring Santa Barbara and we also enjoyed a morning hot tub. Both the hot tub and pool were clean and fully stocked with towels. The staff was available, friendly and super helpful-yes they loaned us a corkscrew. The location is fabulous, only a short walk to State Street and the Funk Zone and it’s located on a quiet street in a beautiful and mostly residential neighbourhood. I highly recommend."

Hotel Santa Barbara

8/10 Good

"Room was very clean but very dark - not a lot of lighting. AC did not go very high, and the room stayed super humid the whole time. The elevator was very very slow and the door closed on us twice as we waited for people to leave the elevator before we got in. That said, it's a beautiful property; very clean, very well maintained and perfect location. Staff was ok; not super friendly but managed to get me in and out. One older blonde woman behind the reception desk was staring my mother and I down as if she wanted to make sure we were staying there while we waited for the elevator which made us uncomfortable, but we just tried to ignore her."
