From the greeting, great continental breakfast, clean rooms , location and it goes on. The one thing I would recommend is if you have coffee pods in the room get a better quality deep,rich French roast. The brand now is like tea.

Spotless rooms. Recently remodeled. Great shower pressure, and the place couldn't be any cuter. Service is great. Parking is extremely convenient, it's a short walk to everything, and the lounge area is exactly what you go to Santa Barbara for. Will return.
