Overnight stop in Santa Barbara
"We stayed overnight on route to LA accommodation was very close to waterfront which was very convenient. Great that there was a lift to help with getting luggage upstairs. We had a balcony with chairs so was not confined to the room which was nice. Only downside was you could hear every door open ..."
