A Fantastic Birthday Weekend!
The Mar Monte hotel is situated in a very beautiful area of Santa Barbara, just across the street is the beach! We were greeted upon arrival by Lauren who went out of her way to make sure my birthday weekend was special...and it was spectacular. We did have a few problems with our room, very minor, but they were taken care of immediately. I would highly recommend this hotel and look forward returning in the future.
