I can’t believe this is my first time at this hotel. We come in to Santa Barbara every other month and this is by far the best place for the price. They have a great breakfast, easy parking, walkable to everywhere downtown. I will definitely be back!

Comfortable and great location

We enjoyed the harbor view room with a balcony. Comfortable and spacious room! Great location to the harbor and warf. We appreciated the permitted parking lot which had an EV charger for our rental car. We would stay here again!

We were only in SB for a short visit but it did not disappoint. Our room had a view of the marina/pier. It was clean and comfortable to come back to after walking all over the marina. The sunrise the next morning was beautiful! Will be back!
