There was a hole in the bathroom wall, as if someone who stayed in said room before opened the bathroom door with force and left a door handle sized hole.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is essentially comparable to a Motel 6 but pricier not as nice. The shower was new and upgraded but the bathroom wasn’t great. My primary concern was safety as the bathroom window did not lock and could easily be opened from the outside as we discovered the next morning. We were on the first floor.

Room was very clean, and better than the 2 star ratings I expected. Some minor upgrades to the bathroom would raise its standing. The location on a busy street has some issues with noise, but overall a good location and facility for a short stay.

Sharmaine

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff was friendly and everything was newly remodeled which made enjoying the space easy. As someone who traveled to Santa Barbara frequently in the past, I would never rent a hotel because pricing for this is more than the gas from my previous home. However, the price to quality ratio for this property would definitely have me rebook if I needed to stay in the area again in the future. I’m glad Expedia was able to show me this place.
