AWFUL hotel!! I can't believe we were charged $250 for ONE NIGHT!! That was the same we paid for a Westin Hotel in Costa Mesa!! Here is our feedback: 1) Dirty looking and smelling - our room smelled of mold and mildew 2) While they tried to remodel the rooms, you can't put lipstick on a pig! I think they covered the mold in the shower area with a new surround and did not remove mold issue first (not good for our health - thanks!) 3) the fire alarm went off every time we showered (a total of THREE times in 24 hours!). CRAZY 4) there was an inch gap under the door. While many hotels have this, they normally have interior hallways. This one went right outside so anything (mice, rats, spiders, snakes, etc) could just crawl/slither right in. 5) pool was ok but the whole area felt dirty and the swim towels were located outside the gated pool area (kind of strange) 6) we did not have the pastries and coffee in the morning because we could see the small cabana was crowded with people (some whom we heard coughing - so no thanks!) It is incredible that anyone would pay over $75 a night for this place. We stayed at 8 different hotels during out trip and this is the only one we were HUGELY disappointed in. DO NOT GO HERE! Yuck!

The room was clean, easy to park. Several close restaurants, but need to drive to....otherwise it was too dark to walk. Easy to park. We had an issue with our air conditioning - it broke after a couple of hours - we were able to switch to the room next to ours easily (they offered this solution).

Very Family-Kid-Friendly

My family have stayed in this place 3 times already and that's everytime we come to Solvang and Santa Barbara. Just a couple miles to the Ostrich Land. Only about 8mins to Solvang Visitor Center. The room is clean and tidy and spacious. We love our own little patio. Kids loved the pool, the mini golf course and outdoor games. Will definitely stay here again!

Anderson s Pea Soup hotel

I enjoy staying at Pea Soup. I’ve stayed here about 10 times so far. The only issue I had this time was the lamps on each side of the bed and plugs on that wall all didn’t work. I called the front desk and a gentleman came immediately to check it out. He couldn’t figure it out and asked it would be ok if maintenance checked it out the next day. I said sure. I was staying for 3 nights. I never heard back and they never worked. Si I was unable to charge any of my devices on that side of the room. I will still stay here again next time I’m in Buellton, Ca.

The historic Pea Soup Anderson restaurant is permanently closed, in disrepair, and scheduled for demolition. The motel is showing its’ age and the area is depressing. The motel stall is very friendly and helpful.

My husband and I brought our parents for a few days while we head to the bay to visit our daughter. As we checked in the front desk was amazing and very kind we even checked in early. As we walked to our room we saw how nice the property was. They have a putt putt area for miniature golf as well as a cornhole spot. The pool was very spacious and very clean the spa was amazing!the maintenance crew was very kind and always asked if we needed anything. We had towels for days!! They do offer free danishes and oatmeal for breakfast. If I could I would rate a 20👌
