"The staff including Esteban and Edward were absolutely outstanding. This is now my new go to destination every month when I come up to Santa Barbara from San Diego."
"Had a great stay for our anniversary. They were kind to give us a free upgrade and the room was very spacious and clean. I didn’t find the bed and pillows to be the most comfortable but I also recognize I am very selective about my pillows. Lol The staff was very friendly and the location was perfect, walkable to everything we wanted! The only downside which didn’t bother us too much but I could see it bothering others, was the bar downstairs/next-door which is very loud. "
