This place is perfect! It’s walking distance to downtown and the Santa Barbara pier. The hotel staff was very friendly and the hotel had every single thing we could need. The wine and cheese happy hour and breakfast buffet was the cherry on top! We will definitely be back!

Excellent hotel

Very good hotel, especially for being in a beachfront area. Clean, quiet after the daytime traffic stopped. Excellent complementary breakfast. The only "glitch" was when the hotel's auto-dial system called all the rooms at 11PM to notify everyone that they had to follow all the parking rules--everybody had done so, but still got the call.

Very nice place, easy and quick check-in...front desk staff was pleasant and informative. Good breakfast, clean and bus people did an excellent job. Room was nice, comfortable beds and clean. Noisy neighbors above us, but that's not the hotel's fault. I forgot to request the highest floor room. Would definitely stay here again. Awesome view, too.
