Inn By The Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"Upon arrival, we were greeted by Mickey at check-in. He was incredibly helpful, offering dining suggestions and providing a general orientation to the area. He was so personable and friendly, which made a great start to our stay. The room was large and very clean. The beds were comfortable. We used the pool/hot tub, and both were well-maintained and clean, as was the general pool area. Pool towels are available. The complimentary breakfast was a nice extra - nothing fancy, but certainly enough to get the day started. The property was well-maintained and fairly centrally located. There were benches outside each room and nice plants/greenery throughout the center of the property. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again and would recommend the property to others."

Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort

6/10 Okay

"A beautiful property but the rooms are dated, especially the bathrooms. It have stayed here many times but this time I saw a very obvious drop in the quality of service — from the house keeping, waiters and hostesses. You go to a property like this to be surrounded by the est and the staff and as mostly different. Maybe just overwhelmed? For the prices they charge, I’d expect more like the level they have provided in the past."

Avania Inn of Santa Barbara

8/10 Good

"I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, location was great. There are more homeless around SB than before and there was one vagrant that came to the hotel in the middle of the night. That was scary but the police finally removed them. So, a really good hotel to stay in on so many level, location, breakfast and staff and price. Like I said, great location as a primary reason to stay but I would ask for the after hours number, there is one but it is not posted."
