Hotels near Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History Sea Center

"I always stay at this hotel when I’m going to the nearby Lobero Theater to go see a concert. It’s about a 10 minute walk. This is located on State Street near lots of great shopping and coffee, shops and restaurants and bars.. Starbucks is right next to the hotel. This part of State Street does not have cars so it makes it very easy to walk up and down and explore and have fun. There is valet parking and a parking lot in the back of the hotel that was very helpful. The room was very nice and very clean and I loved the mattress and the bedding and pillows and had a great night sleep. It’s mid priced and affordable and I enjoy it more than some of the more expensive hotels that I’ve stayed at that are fairly close to this location as well. The parking was $30 for overnight parking. They have renovated fairly recently since it’s an older historical hotel and it’s really well done and they’ve added a bar downstairs in the lobby, which was quite nice. Very friendly staff checking in and a wonderful and fragrant fresh smell throughout the hotel. Can’t say enough about it and I would stay here over and over again.!!!"

"Loved The Milo hotel. Would’ve been great to have more time to enjoy this place. We were in ground floor unit which was very convenient. Unfortunately, the people staying upstairs must’ve been a family of elephants who didn’t like sleeping. The stomped around all night at odd hours which kept us awake. When asked how our stay was at check out, I joked about the unfortunate neighbour noise. The staff member didn’t even offer a laugh, let alone an apology. A disappointing end to an otherwise great experience."

"General manger was very responsive to all questions and issues. Regular employees were ok, but not as good as property manager. They no longer do full Continental breakfast, just croissants, yogurt and fruit, so that was a bit disappointing."
