A great stay!

We were warmly greeted by front desk staff and were surprised and delighted to be offered a complimentary 5 PM happy hour of wine, cheese, and grapes. The room was clean, quiet, modern, and comfortable. There were two large seating areas available in the poolside courtyard, both very lovely and well maintained. The hotel is conveniently located near many food options. The complimentary breakfast buffet was varied, delicious, and there was an attentive staff member there to make sure that the area was tidy and that fresh food was available.

I can’t believe this is my first time at this hotel. We come in to Santa Barbara every other month and this is by far the best place for the price. They have a great breakfast, easy parking, walkable to everywhere downtown. I will definitely be back!
