Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Very clean throughout and the unit was on point with great amenities. Beds were comfortable for us and we especially loved the duvet! We appreciated the blackout blinds in the bedrooms for sleeping in. The lights in the bedrooms and front room had a dimmer which we found to be a thoughtful touch. Cute little neighborhood that was walking distance to coffee and a patisserie that served delicious croissants. Overall, we would stay there again when visiting Santa Barbara!
