Liked: Staff & service
I had a pleasant stay overall. The location was convenient, the staff were friendly, and the room was clean and quiet. The breakfast was also quite good and had a decent variety. That said, the hotel would benefit from some updates — especially the carpet and basic infrastructure, which felt a bit old and worn. If those areas are renovated, the experience would be even better. Still, it was a good value for the price, and I would consider staying here again.

The staff was super helpful and friendly. The amenities, including laundry, pool, gym, and the impressive continental breakfast, surprised me. My family felt safe in this space, and the rooms were spotless. The area was close to shopping and food. We walked to a place called Noodle City, which was terrific. A good amount of security is available.

When I booked through Expedia, total payments included tax & fee but when I checked in the hotel, they charged me another $62 for tax & fee, which in total, I paid $151,16 for these fees, it is unreasonable plus the room charge for this kind of Inn is overpriced. The staff also repeatedly saying that I thought the 3rd party they make less profit. Seems like this was my fault to book with Expedia

Nice family hotel.

Family wedding. We stayed for 3 nights. Our room was spacious. The bed was a little hard for me but the pull out bed was perfect. The room was clean and the cleaning staff were very polite and helpful. Only 1 elevator which was a little inconvenient but not a deal breaker. Warm breakfast, it was good. The eating area very clean. Location is walking distance to several restaurants in Goleta. Plenty of parking. I would stay again!!
