    Nothing

    Our room was spacious and nicely decorated. Everything was sparkling clean, our room as well as the common areas. Felt like a home away from home. Parking in front of the property or right at the next house. Lady at the front desk was super nice and helpful.

    Overall, the inn was great, but only if I were nitpicking… The entry to the location is a little steep for the busy area and you have to take your time otherwise you’ll scrape your car if it sits low. Also the soap/toiletries provided didn’t have the best fragrance.

    The staff was amazing! Very friendly and accommodating. The rooms were clean and spacious for my family of four.

    Great location, comfortable accomodations - very minor drawbacks

    Just two items to be aware of: 1) The bed is a bit soft; can feel like you're sinking into quicksand or another person if you're sharing the bed. 2) The noise. The walls are very thin and there's space under the door to let all kinds of sound and noise in. Bring earplugs if you're a sensitive sleeper.

    Location is perfect - close to many shops, bars, restaurants, parks, etc. Not even a 10-minute drive to the beach. The room itself was super cute with heating and air conditioning - the bathroom had towels, soaps, lotions, etc. Decently sized space for a king-sized bed and closet area with mini fridge - everything I could ask for in a room for a weekend trip! Front desk staff was really nice as well.

    We were able to get a parking space outside the rooms, however the parking spaces were limited. There is parking provided overnight at the business next door so there would definitely be enough space for everybody staying, but there are time limits if parking there (not sure of exact times but I think the car would need to be moved in the morning). We stayed in cheaper places elsewhere that were just as nice or better but I think this is just Santa Barbara prices!

    Good location, helpful staff, lovely room. We arrived early and were able to check in. Love the colours on the soft furnishings in the room.

    Wish there were more parking spaces (there's something like 10 spaces for 13 or so rooms). There are add'l parking spaces on the street behind or next door at the vet's for limited hours.

    Big improvement over the two prior nights at the Santa Barbara Motel 6! This was a quaint little place. Comfy rooms. Felt very clean. Limited parking spaces, but I was able to snag one right in front of my room. Check in and out was super easy. I'd stay here again.
