Fabulous!! The breakfast was perfect! Scones, danish, yogurt, fresh fruit, coffee, loved it all! We took the bikes out 2 times, the pool and hot tub were so nice. The place was so clean and the people were super nice. I wish we could have stayed longer but will come back to this hotel when we come back to Santa Barbara! Thank you so much for an easy, peaceful stay in Santa Barbara.

Liked the pool area because it was secluded from street. Very lovely. Easy access too. Lovely breakfast and cute eating area. Only thing is too much light coming in curtains at night. Maybe need curtains that block light. Made it hard to sleep.
