"A nice but not great hotel in downtown Santa Barbara. The hotel has some good facilities (parking - for a fee, gym, bar and restaurant). The location is good for exploring downtown and the beach (bike, or a 25 min walk). We had some issues with noise outside the room in the early mornings; one day due to a delivery, the other due to an unhoused person. The room was nice but the bathroom lacks any kind of sound proofing or even a solid door... It was also missing robes, coffee/kettle (though they...

"Booked our room Xmas Eve… Was checked in by Ben & greeted with a glass of wine. Room looked exactly like the picture. However, if you are looking for peace & quiet, there’s not much of that. You can hear everything upstairs & loud noises throughout the night. Although the neighborhood is very quiet. Showerhead definitely needed to be cleaned but great pressure & temp. We got locked out of the room one night, called the number that was provided & followed directions, & got back in my room with no...

"This house is truly a gem nestled above one of the most beautiful cities in the US. Wolfgang and Deanna made us feel at home from our first arrival, leaving a lovely basket of snacks and wine. The guest house is well stocked with blankets, pillows, and more than enough towels. The kitchen, while small, has everything you need for day to day cooking. Finally, the photos of the backyard garden don’t do it justice. The views, the flora and fauna (hummingbirds, blue jays, and occasional deer!) are...
