Great location.

This property is positioned perfectly in the heart of Santa Barbara. There are bars and restaurants all around within a 1 minute walk. The ocean is a 15 minute walk. We are really enjoying ourselves.

Great stay will definitely be back! Shoutout to Kelly for being so accommodating and pleasant!

Overall, this is a great choice for a hotel - unfortunately, our room overlooked a bar that had very loud music until 1am - while there are thick windows to help deaden the sound - the booming bass tones kept us all awake.

Location was perfect!

Perfect location right in the middle of the restaurants and bars. Hotel was very nice. Quite pricy though.

Right in the heart of everything you need in Santa Barbara. Great hotel and staff.

A classic hotel in wonderful condition, professionally operated, very well located to the area activities, friendly staff. A pleasure if you appreciate finer things.

Very clean, friendly staff and close to everything.

Not worth $300 a night. Staff not friendly.
