Fabulous location- cute area of town, easily walkable to shops, restaurants, beach. Room was spacious and comfortable. Only improvements would have been more counter space and better mirror lighting in bathroom and easier room temperature control. Also would have appreciated a swiffer since no cleaning service to clean floor myself and yoga mat since no gym facilities. Overall a great stay however! Hope to be back.

Very clean throughout and the unit was on point with great amenities. Beds were comfortable for us and we especially loved the duvet! We appreciated the blackout blinds in the bedrooms for sleeping in. The lights in the bedrooms and front room had a dimmer which we found to be a thoughtful touch. Cute little neighborhood that was walking distance to coffee and a patisserie that served delicious croissants. Overall, we would stay there again when visiting Santa Barbara!
