What guests say
about staying here.
★★★★★
“This was my second time staying here and this visit was just as good as the first. Very clean and comfortable. The staff was very attentive and helpful.”
★★★★★
“This is a great place to stay. Very clean and a great attentive staff. Great location to State Street.”
★★★★★
“Was rather surprised at how easy and convenient it was to check in and check out. Communication was flawless and quick response time. Only thing I think could be better was a regular angled shower head instead of a rainforest shower head only.”
★★★★★
“We had a great quick stay. The room was well equipped and the bed and pillows were super comfortable. The location is excellent and walking distance to many great local spots. Will definitely be back.”
★★★★★
“Spacious, clean, and we'll thought out in terms of having all that you'll need. From wipes to wipe off any oils from the ocean to, ear plugs, face masks, a great coffee machine and a wonderful bath/shower. The aesthetic is also wonderful. You'll need to be prepared to catch a bus or drive to the main harbour front area. It's not a far drive. Lastly, the check in process is different in that there is no one on-site, but the instructions given online and the prompt responses given when asked mitigates any possibile concerns. We would definitely stay here again.”
★★★★★
“The room was very nice, has a nice kitchenette with a refrigerator that gets really cold and has a top freezer. We communicated with support by text and phone and responses were instant and very helpful. Has Tesla chargers on site and will work with other vehicles if you have correct adapter. The TV was a nice frame TV and room has windows that can be opened up for fresh air. Very comfortable experience and was able to walk to local restaurants and food.”
★★★★★
“We were in Santa Barbara for a quick overnight. Once we were in the room, we wished we were staying a couple more days. We'll stay here again if we come back to Santa Barbara. ”
★★★★★
“The most perfect place to stay if you are visiting Santa Barbara! The rooms are spotless and incredibly comfortable! We wanted a few more towels so I texted the automated line and within the hour there was a fresh stack of towels at our door. The best part is the free parking garage. You can park your car and walk throughout the whole city, now driving or Ubers needed! One of the best stays I had, we will be back for sure! ”
★★★★★
“Never had a problem with anything at any point. Prompt, clean, and professional. ”
★★★★★
“Very clean and quaint. Ample parking. 10 minute walk to State street. We would stay here again”
