Isla Vista hotel rooms a the Independent

"This was a great stay, the property was very well taken care of, great amenities, and all the staff went out of their way to exceed expectations. We will be back for sure!"

"5 stars! Clean, close to everything, lovely! "

"We only stayed the one night"

"Poolside is nice to hang out at. Unfortunately we stayed in April so the outside bar wasn't open yet. But still had a great time."

"The restaurant on site was just beautiful and the food was amazing! The rooms at the inn were HUGE and with a beautiful view!"

"Lovely stay in a quiet part of town but only 2 blocks to the beach."

"Room was very basic, small and nothing like pictured on the listing. The bed was uncomfortable, springs poking. Shower water pressure was low. Breakfast was basic. On our last night the smoke alarm kept beeping and finally we got up at 3am to call the desk. The guy came and wanted change the battery but it was wired so he just unplugged it and left. Very safe. Never got back to sleep so we just left early. The hot tub jets also malfunctioned the night before. Way too expensive for a room was that essentially a motel 6."

"Hotel was an easy walk to State St, the Funk Zone and directly across the street from the Bay and Wharf. Though on a very bust street, noise was tolerable. Staff was incredible, especially Jeramiah at the front desk who went above and beyond to satisfy our room needs. "

"Location is great, rooms were clean and updated. The pool looked great, but didn't get a chance to use it."
