It looked great online. I wanted to like it. But the room was dark, nothing but a desk chair to sit on. The patio outside our room needed sweeping, and the furniture needs to be wiped down. Many areas around the property are run-down. The pool needs resurfacing, and the edge needs to be replaced. There's a "lounge" area that has potential next to the pool, which needs work. The exterior trim around the property needs replacing and painting, etc. It has great potential to be a lovely, cool place to stay, but it needs work. The photos are misleading. I will say the staff was very nice and responsive, which makes me sad to leave this review, they were great!

Spacious room and comfy bed.

Clean, comfortable and spacious room. Room was very nice and bed was super comfortable. Not a ton near by, but there are a couple convenient stores and a restaurant very close. I stayed here for a concert at the bowl and wasn’t a bad walk, not short but not long either, took 45 minutes at an easy pace. Will probably stay here next time I go to the bowl.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The floors were pretty dirty and it was pretty basic amenities for the price. The safe didn’t seem to work for example. And the headboard looked scratched or dirty. Seemed overpriced but it had most everything you needed. I guess it’s an expensive area so there must be a premium on that. We enjoyed the pool and the big room and back patio. We also found it conveniently located next to a sandwich spot and a bike rental to get to the main drag for shopping and to visit the boardwalk.

Giants walking above you

Hotel is in a good location for walking shopping, food, attractions and quickly accessible to the 101. Unfortunately I was placed on the 1st floor and it was so loud! The gate to pool sticks and I had alot of trouble especially getting out. I have a huge bruise on my arm. If you stay here don't stay in 105 definitely request 2nd floor room.

Pretty nice, Americana feel, definitely old, but very well maintained. The bathroom floor was slate so my feet were all black and I thought it was dirty but the floor is just like that. Very safe. Basic but … Excellent value for very expensive Santa Barbara.
