The room and check-in staff were lovely. Unfortunately there are only 8 very small parking spaces and 1 handicap accessible space for a 9 room hotel! The reservation conformation does indicate 1 car per hotel guest, which technically it can't even accomodate. Clearly guests to do follow this rule as both us and another room guest did not have a parking space when we returned in the evening. Hotel staff are not onsite in the evenings and no one answered the after hours phone. There is no street parking in the immediate area so we parked blocking other vehicles w/a note to call us if they need to move. Which did occur. In the morning the hotel clerk was rude and unappologetic about the situation. She then proceeded to offer other guests walking in the free breakfast and ignored me and did not offer me the breakfast. In theory this is a lovely spot with delicious perks such as wine and cookies upon arrival and breakfast included in a great location, as long as you aren't driving.

The room was attached to the lobby and so we were woken up very early to the sound of pots and pans falling and breakfast being made. The room was fine

We loved EVERYTHING about this sweet boutique hotel except the front desk staff :( They were not very friendly during check in. Also, the same vibe in the morning during breakfast. They seemed “bothered” by food/coffee requests from us and other guests. The gentleman at night, was awesome!!!! The rooms were SO nice and the bed was so comfortable. Location was perfect. So the vibe didn’t really ruin our trip and our opinion about this hotel. Would stay here again for sure.

Room was clean, people were friendly and breakfast was delicious. My only snag was that our room (#1) was in the lobby floor and the evening person sat at a table on his computer right outside our door so we didn’t feel like we had privacy.

This is a beautiful cottage. We really enjoyed staying here. The decor is beautiful rather beachy and the rooms are very nicely done super super clean within walking distance of restaurants and shops and the harbor. Breakfast was lovely. We enjoyed it in the sunroom. The only caveat I would say is if you’re staying here be aware there’s a lot of stairs

My fiancé and I booked a one-night stay at this hotel in Santa Barbara for our wedding, and while the front office staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, the condition of our room unfortunately fell far below expectations. When we checked in, the staff at the front desk were friendly, the office area looked great, and after we mentioned that our wedding was the next day, they even gifted us a complimentary bottle of wine, which we truly appreciated. The woman at the front desk pointed us in the direction of our room, and everything seemed off to a good start. However, upon entering our room, we were immediately met with a foul smell. The rugs underneath the beds were dirty, there was a large black spot by the fridge, and later that night as we pulled the curtains closed, we noticed red stains along the bottom. The chair in the room was also extremely dirty the arms were black and looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in quite some time. The bathroom was also concerning. There were visible mold spots on the ceiling of the shower, which made us even more uncomfortable. Trying to sleep was difficult. The bed sheets had a strong, unpleasant odor, and I couldn’t have the blankets near my face. When we unfolded one of the extra blankets, we found a brown stain on it that was questionable. It was incredibly disappointing and unsettling, especially considering this stay was meant to be part of our wedding
