Hotel Santa Barbara

3.0 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (1004)
"This hotel is fantastic! In spite of the fact that the lobby was undergoing renovations, it did not affect or stay. The staff is outstanding. We were allowed an early check-in, and the check-out time was 12:00pm. The newly renovated rooms are beautiful and very comfortable. My only suggestion would be to have softer pillows. It is at a great location with easy access to restaurants, stores, cafes, etc. It is also near the train station, if you travel by train, which we did. Highly recommend. "
