Sandpiper Lodge

8/10 Good

"Helpful staff. Spacious room and centrally located property. Breakfast was a plus."

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria South

10/10 Excellent

"Great AC, clean room/bathroom, fridge and microwave works great, a lot of parking space, some staff (receptionist) can be nicer tho and maybe more cleaning/housekeeping staff so that rooms will be available sooner for those who wants and willing to pay for an early check in. Still recommends this place."

Avania Inn of Santa Barbara

8/10 Good

"Staff is very helpful and friendly. The location is very close to many things including the beach area, which are walkable!! The lobby has different coffees available throughout the day and in the mornings they put out continental type foods and drinks for their guests, which is not really advertised. Definitely an added extra!"

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria North

8/10 Good

"We had a great stay at this hotel. The room was very clean, and the entire property was quiet and peaceful. Everyone mostly kept to themselves, which made for a relaxing stay. The air conditioning worked amazingly it kept the room nice and cold, which was especially appreciated during the warmer weather. The pool was also clean and well maintained. The only minor downside was that there wasn't a microwave in the room. However, there is a shared microwave located in the laundry room next to the washers, dryers, and vending machines, so it wasn't a huge inconvenience. As for the staff, we honestly didn't interact with them much, so I can't fairly comment on the service. We didn't need to ask for anything during our stay. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and would definitely consider staying here again."
