It was a very vintage hotel but kept up nice. Wish we could have had a breakfast option on site. Staff was great.

I love the Santa Maria Inn. In addition to being a really nice elegant hotel, the following are really high points for the area: convenient to tons of dining options, their own restaurant and just ordering at the bar is a great option; staff are very good ambassadors of a fine tradition; the rooms are spectacular. And Santa Maria is central to so much on the Central coast
