Brisas del Mar, Inn at the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We lived our stay here. Estevan at the front desk was so helpful and nice! The room was charming and it was a short walk to the beach. The breakfast was really nice."

The Franciscan Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed the breakfast, especially the delicious egg bites. My room was quiet, had everything I needed and was steps from the pool. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool for some down time after touring Santa Barbara and we also enjoyed a morning hot tub. Both the hot tub and pool were clean and fully stocked with towels. The staff was available, friendly and super helpful-yes they loaned us a corkscrew. The location is fabulous, only a short walk to State Street and the Funk Zone and it’s located on a quiet street in a beautiful and mostly residential neighbourhood. I highly recommend."

Hotel Santa Barbara

8/10 Good

"Room was very clean but very dark - not a lot of lighting. AC did not go very high, and the room stayed super humid the whole time. The elevator was very very slow and the door closed on us twice as we waited for people to leave the elevator before we got in. That said, it's a beautiful property; very clean, very well maintained and perfect location. Staff was ok; not super friendly but managed to get me in and out. One older blonde woman behind the reception desk was staring my mother and I down as if she wanted to make sure we were staying there while we waited for the elevator which made us uncomfortable, but we just tried to ignore her."

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria North

8/10 Good

"I don’t usually stay at motels, but this ended up being a solid last minute option for one night. The price was reasonable, check-in was quick, and the room was clean when we arrived. The property itself was well maintained and felt taken care of. The bed was a little lumpy, and the pillows weren’t the most comfortable, but it was fine for a short stay. The bathroom had a stand-up shower only, although it was surprisingly spacious. There isn’t an elevator, so if you’re on the second floor you’ll have to carry your luggage, but it wasn’t too much of an inconvenience. One thing to note is they don’t provide toiletries, so be sure to pack your own. Overall, it was a good value for a quick overnight stay, and I’d consider staying here again if I needed an affordable place in the area."
