My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were left immaculate by us, but they lacked a microwave or fridge. With two queen beds in a small space with thin walls, it was a bit cramped. The ongoing construction nearby and daily appearance of ants in the bathroom were also drawbacks. Moreover, the price seemed a bit steep for what was offered.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and nicely decorated, with a really comfortable bed and a nice balcony where I could relax and enjoy the pleasant Santa Barbara weather. However, the room wasn't ready until 4 pm, causing a bit of stress before heading to a wedding, as the cleaner was still finishing up and forgot to leave towels. The space felt a little small for four people but overall, it was a cozy experience.
