We didn’t stay because it’s right next to the freeway and very noisy. We went somewhere else.

Cute, clean and convenient to Santa Barbara. Walking distance to some really nice shops. We walked each day to the Red Kettle Coffee which was great and dinner at The Nugget which was also nice. Overall, nice place however as others stated it’s right on highway so be prepared for that. noise didn’t bother us, they provide sound machine and earplugs if you need them

Hospitality was great- Sofia and Natalie welcomed us and we’re very helpful with suggestions and offered us wine/cheese and then to come back later for desserts. Breakfast was good. Unfortunately we could hear the guests upstairs walking around which disturbed our sleep.
