We loved the hotel and stafff was exceptional, The only thing that was a bit off was the odor in the room.. and u wished you had better pillows other than that everything was great

Loved this neighborhood gem. The property ambiance was casual yet very inviting. There were small seating areas in various locations. Our group spent hours chatting in the living room-like lobby and patio areas. My husband and I stayed in one of the quaint cottages and loved it. This property is perfect for larger groups. We would stay here again in a second.

Nice hotel, my favorite for the money in Santa Barbara. It was comfortable, clean, and cozy with great outdoor garden to lounge in. Dry nice staff. My only complaints would be that there were no plugs beside the bed on my side of the bed for my CPAP machine, and the WiFi was so weak in our room that it was essentially non-functional at all. In 2025 you would think a strong WiFi signal in every room would be a given, but not so. If we wanted a strong WiFi for internet we had to go to the lobby.

Loved everything about this place... the friendly staff, the fresh fruit, the coffee was very good, my room was like a tiny cabin (absolutely loved it) quiet and cozy, the gardens were beautiful, other guests were friendly, parking was convenient, and the woman at the desk that helped solve my battery issue!
