The hotel is in an awesome spot! You can walk everywhere and it’s in the heart of the Santa Barbara area. We loved the lobby and spent time there relaxing. Our only issue was that the room was never cleaned and we had to ask for towels and the trash to be emptied.

I parked the car myself and drove it out of the parking lot myself, so there was no point in valet parking.

Natalie was extremely nice and helpful even though she was understaffed. Our room accommodations were perfect for a night away. This property is smack in the middle.of the Funk zone. Will definitely return!

My wife and I stayed here while in town for my brother’s wedding. The location was amazing, lots of great restaurants in the area, very close to the beach, and a very walkable area. We were initially placed in a wheelchair accessible room. During my first shower, the water went into the whole bathroom and started into the bedroom. The staff was nice enough to place us in a different room. The facilities and cleanliness left a lot to be desired. There was hair throughout the shower in our new room, the tv remote batteries were low, the lights in the bathroom went out. The staff was notified but the lights were out in the bathroom almost the whole time we were there. The staff was extremely nice and helpful with luggage and details about the area.

The noise in this hotel is unbearable. The building was apparently not build with insulation or noise control in mind. We had to move rooms to go to the second floor because of how loud the people were above us just simply walking around. The cleaning crew woke you up because every move they made felt like they were cleaning the room you were sleeping in. People talking in their rooms or in the hallway were so loud you felt like they were in their room. The noise from the train and street outside were loud enough to keep you up at night. Although it was a great location in the funk zone and had some nice amenities, we will never stay there again.

The staff was very nice and accommodating, but this hotel is insanely overpriced. The room was a shoebox, basically a foot of floorspace around the bed, with fancy decor to mask the fact that its a glorified Motel 6. They have NO parking, we had to park in public parking 3 blocks away and walk with all of our luggage. Its a quant hotel, but defintely won't go back. At least I got to experience what ita like to take a shower in a coffin
