Location is great. Room was small. Bathroom did not have a real door and neither did the shower so the floor was puddly through our entire stay. The wet floor had a pipe and mold smell. Location is next to a train stop so there are moments when it’s loud. All that being said I might go back but fingers crossed on a bigger room and shower.

Absolutely loved this stay! Came to Santa Barbara for work and needed to be somewhere centrally located where I could access the train, this checked all those boxes. Not only is the hotel very quaint and had lots of fun hangout spots on the property to find, but it was within walking distance to tons of restaurants and the pier. Staff was super friendly and welcoming, had tips and advice for things to do. Great spot for an overnight or weekend getaway, highly recommend!

Nice hotel…but no pool, no spa, rooms tiny as can be, bathrooms tinier than New York City rooms, and no elevator. Next to the hotel was constant noise (trains/dumpaters)

The issue was the cockroach by the coffee machine where clothes sit. Then the HVAC wouldn’t produce any heat, only cool air. Parking is pricey but that’s because of the area, and the room is the size of a New York apartment, front door almost hits bed when opening.
