We stayed in one of the suites and the room was lovely but a little bare…no water left in the room, most of the shelves were completely empty. It left a beautiful room feeling cold. Water and toiletries would be really helpful, especially at that price point.

You can always count on the Montacito Inn
Every time we go to the Montacito Inn , we have a wonderful stay. The staff is amazing. They always bend backwards for us. We had to check out early due to the storm and one person stood out even more than the rest. His name is KOBI he is one of the bartenders he went out of his way to make sure we were assisted on the emergency check out again everyone is wonderful
