Great spot for a Santa Barbara Bowl visit. Pretty short walk and very quiet hotel. Nice staff and breakfast included.

Liked: Nice quiet hotel; friendly staff. Room was very clean.
Disliked: The shower didn't have a lot of water pressure.

Good

Liked: Location
Disliked: They wrongly advertised that they serve complimentary breakfast but actually they have coffee and pastries and no place to seat!

Great!

Liked: The grounds are absolutely beautiful. The staff are very welcoming and attentive. The location is good - but to get to major areas you may need to drive depending on your abilities.
Disliked: The place is fairly old and when we arrived the bathroom was a bit dirty (had black hair all over the floor). But this didn't ruin our time!

It was our first time...

Liked: The property was old fashioned in its appearance but up-to-date for conveniences.
Disliked: Lightning in bathroom wasn’t sufficient for putting makeup on.

Great stay in Santa Barbara

Liked: Beautiful historic building and cottage houses, close to Main Street of Santa Barbara

A lovely facility, comfortable room...

Liked: Lovely grounds, good sized room, roomy bathroom, great location for walking to restaurants, shops. Convenient onsite or street-side parking.Well maintained.
Disliked: No breakfast to speak of - no protein (yogurt, etc) provided w/ Continental breakfast available near desk. And lousy (weak) coffee. Desk staff not very helpful, for example for directions to nearby breakfast optionsVery nice bathroom with good storage space but really chilly. A wall heater for cold mornings would be most welcome.

It's a nice hotel, but...

Liked: The location is fantastic, the facility is charming, and it has a lovely historical atmosphere.
Disliked: We lived on the first floor and could hear how people above walked on the creaking floor. Furthermore, it was very noisy behind the wall when someone was walking up or down the stairs.
