Isla Vista hotel guide. Independent hotel in Isla Vista, Goleta

"The hotel is clean, staff is great, outdoor pool area was awesome, food was amazing.. my only reason for not giving 5 stars across the board is because it is kept way too cold in every area of the hotel and casino. I actually left with a cold and sore throat after three days. It did not matter where I would be, there was a vent blowing on me. I had to eat my very delicious food with my hoodie and wished a had a winter coat on me. It was not just me in my group that was cold, I was just affected the worst. Other than that, it was good. I would visit again but I don't think I'd stay there again for that reason. "

"I reserved a King Room. Ended up in a double with a view of a fence and a wall. Not the property’s issue. Expedia changes my reservation to a standard room. I’m sure I overpaid. Watch out for the bait and switch."

"Breakfast is typical. Similar to many other hotels breakfast (scramble eggs, boil eggs, bacon, oatmeal, bagel, coffee, juice, apple and banana…). But the only thing is they open from 7am and close at 9am. Be sure to be there early. "

"The location is superb, walking distance to beach and State Street with eateries and shopping available. Hotel is lovely and newly renovated. The rooms are small but there are nice places to gather within the hotel - the lobby area, patios, and nooks. The staff is super friendly and helpful and we enjoyed the wine tasting offered on Fridays and Saturdays. Unfortunately, our room was next to the garbage collection area of the next door pizza place and we heard the truck pickup at 4 am Saturday. So maybe check which room you get?"

"The beach cruisers available for check out make everything in town easily accessible. The suites are very comfortable and having a full kitchen is a bonus. "
