First of all, I had to pay $15 to park behind the building in an unsecure lot. I have stayed in Santa Barbara on business for 20 years and NEVER paid for parking. Internet sucked. It took me an extra hour to get all my orders sent in as I kept getting bumped off the internet. Lastly, there was no hot water to take a shower so I had to sponge off in the sink. I will not stay at this facility again.

Really liked how close it was to the beach. The internet service was extremely spotty. We did have a router in our room that we could restart but it was not consistent service.

Great location, EH stay
Great location, EH stay. You can walk to the beach & zoo. Less than a 10min drive to State St or Funk Zone, must see areas of SB. You can hear the pipes when people shower, bed super springy, wifi was TERRIBLE, no AC (thank god the heat wave just ended). Pictures showed must've been from when they first opened.

STAY AWAY, looked for anything good to write about it couldn’t find any other than the room service personnel and the location. The TV never worked, and the smoke detector woke up all night long, the staff were extremely rude. My advice, pay extra and stay somewhere else if you want to enjoy your trip.

I love staying in this hotel. It’s so easy and walkable to the beach. There are many dining options. Their markets nearby. The rooms are super clean. There’s a beautiful pool in the middle of the property and the rooms are extremely clean. Staff is very nice. They have a quick breakfast in the morning and easy parking around the area.

Numerous issues with the room. Very loud parties at night and no staff of premises which was a huge issue for numerous reasons. I will say that management was very responsive when I shared my horrible experience after the stay and I do appreciate that.

Great location. 1 block from the ocean. No air conditioning. Ventilation was tough. Cute pool. Friendly staff when found. :-P Bed was like a trampoline. Some may like but I prefer memory foam. TO BE NOTED ~ terrible WiFi connection in a dead zone. Prepare for pilgrim living. Can’t beat the price.

Great stay
We had a great one night stay. The room was huge and had all the amenities we needed. We were a little concerned that there was no air con but the ceiling fan was great and the tenperature cooled down nicely at night so no issues. The grab and go breakfast was a great addition.
