"Very nice and welcoming employees. Hotel walkable to many sites"

"I’ve stayed there more than once, and have always liked it. Nice ‘n easy, it’s above downtown/State St. but close enough. I’m sure we will be back"

"Hotel is in great location. Close to everything. Everyone was very friendly. Had a great 3 nights stay and would highly recommend. "

"Avania Inn was a quiet and comfortable location when we stayed there for a concert at the Santa Barbara Bowl in April 2026. Staff was wonderful. The breakfast was good. "

"We had a nice stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and well-kept. The staff was friendly and helpful, which made our stay comfortable. Breakfast didn’t have a huge variety, but everything was fresh, tasty, and nicely prepared — it was more than enough. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back again."

"The “Terrible”overall rating is due to the manager, M.R. We asked if we could check in 55 min early. M.R. stated that there was a room available but the early check-in fee would be $20.00! What a complete turn off. $20 for a “early” 55 min check-in. If M.R. is a reflection of this hotel’s management / ownership, this may be a place you might want to avoid. However, the rest of the staff, especially the breakfast lady, were marvelous. Maybe they know that they have some making up to do."

"Parking was easy and secure. Staff was very helpful. Unfortunately the property had a power outage during the night and still had no internet when the power was restored. "

"GF muffins were excellent! Comfortable bed. "

"Very friendly and welcoming staff, and the rooms have been updated and were exceptionally clean. The overall experience was comfortable and hassle-free. I’ll definitely plan to stay here again when traveling through Santa Barbara."
