The property was nice and convenient for our group. Alondra at the front desk was very friendly and helpful at check in. The 3 stars are for the lack of housekeepers. We could only get towels and garbage emptied, no cleaning of the room, nothing else because they were very short staffed. We also had to put the towels and garbage outside our door ourselves and call the front desk for that service. One day they took our towels and didn’t replace them with clean ones. Rooms were ok but a lot of freeway noise. Get a room facing the courtyard for more peace and quiet. Probably would stay somewhere else next time.

I loved the charm and style of the place, and the central courtyard is great. I was a bit disappointed to request a courtyard room only to find out we did not have a balcony (but rather a corner room with a small window onto the courtyard), so I would warn everyone who wants that to be more clear with the front desk about it. It's great that there's a hottub, but the tub is VERY small and awkward, so be aware of that. The TV in the room was up-to-date with full casting capabilities from our phones, which was wonderful and surprising.

Believe the pics. This is a lovely property with SB style and charm. Doesn’t quite match the location right off freeway but you can walk to downtown Carpinteria and both the City and State beaches which are excellent. Would recommend.

Cute little hotel, definitely basic and all the patios are together so if people are staying next to you you basically share it, but it’s quiet and walkable (15 min walk) to the town and beach!

Decent & pretty, no complementary breakfast.

The weather was fantastic, gloomy with some slight breeze. Front desk was kind and quick. We enjoyed the small pool, just wish for the price of the stay breakfast was included it'd definitely be a 5 star rating. Overall beautiful Spanish architecture courtyard.
