Sandpiper Lodge
Water pressure in shower was less than adequate - more like a dribble. Water Temperature of the shower also fluctuated severely to the point of scalding at times. Everything else pretty reasonable.

There was a musty odor in the room. The a/c made a high pitched squeaking sound.

Avania Inn of Santa Barbara
The main lobby coffee machine was broken, and did not get fixed during our 4-day stay. However, they brought in coffee from Pete's, which was OK. The room was fine, although we had some issues with doors slamming.
