Lovely courtyard and great location. Highly disappointed that early check-in was an additional cost of $25.00. It was requested 2 hours prior to the 4pm official check-in. Room was available but only at this added amount! We declined and went to have a walk around town.

I loved the charm and style of the place, and the central courtyard is great. I was a bit disappointed to request a courtyard room only to find out we did not have a balcony (but rather a corner room with a small window onto the courtyard), so I would warn everyone who wants that to be more clear with the front desk about it. It's great that there's a hottub, but the tub is VERY small and awkward, so be aware of that. The TV in the room was up-to-date with full casting capabilities from our phones, which was wonderful and surprising.

So, I would urge anyone looking to stay at this property not to, just because of the customer service or lack there of. My family and I arrived to the property at 2 pm an hour earlier than check in on a Wednesday on of the least busy days of the week, I was told that there was a $25 early check in fee which in all is RIDICULOUS in itself. I looked at my credit card to see a $28.81 pending charge. When I called the location I was so rudely told that the $3.81 additional was a tariff tax. REALLY, a tariff tax on a not busy early check in fee. I know that we won't stay at any other Best Western's again..

Very nice stay. We were in an outside room which had a fair amount of freeway traffic noise, but that doesn’t bother us. If it bothers you you might want to ask for a courtyard room.

Beautiful but too noisy

Beautiful hotel in Carpinteria, with a charming mediterranean architecture, a courtyard, tiny swimming pool and luxurious plants. We arrived late after driving for 6 hours, and were assigned a room at the very end of several corridors, the closest to the highway. Needless to say, we heard the traffic a LOT. I was too tired to make a fuss about it, and I assumed that was the only room left. For close to $300, I was really hoping for a restful night.

Check in was quick and easy. The staff was very friendly. Our room was very large and comfortable. The air conditioner worked great and it had lots of amenities like free coffee, the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the shower or excellent. I really liked how they had a coffee machine in the lobby that was available 24/7 with cappuccinos, lattes et.
