Goleta Hotels

Location

Comfortable hotel, great staff.

Sheets and towels as well as water in breakfast area were heavy on chlorine.

Loved the in room entertainment - a turntable with an album collection library - happy hour a bonus pool towels gym all adequate staff super freindly and helpful...eager to meet needs..service at its best...accompdations perfectly adequate - basic if you need a true description - but all you need in a beach town...

Hotel was quirky & fun!

Doors to room were not sealed all the way-you could see light coming in from gaps

One of the cleanest hotels that we've stayed in while visiting Goleta.

The staff is friendly and helpful. Two bottles of water and daily breakfast are included. Free parking is free. The rooms are clean.

Walls seem thin -- I could hear TV and voices from the next room. The windows don't have blackout curtains.

For the price I paid that was terrible. everything was minimal. The breakfast was unhealthy.

Clean room. Good location.

AC unit in the room is too loud.

Hotel need to improve on they breakfast and hotel need NEW BED

Hospitality

Clean and predictable, which is GOOD! You can count on Motel 6 to be the same generally everywhere.

Don't like paying for wi-fi. That's silly in this day and time.

Walking distance to restaurants and necessities

Poor bed, small space, no hair dryer, one mirror, stayed in two different rooms and one had lousy TV and bad wifi connection, too loud to hear traffic at 2-4 am, not enough pillows on bed. Room was very clean so tolerated inconveniences

Friendly and helpful front desk guys

Old big chair in the room

It was quiet.

Needs to be modernized.

The setting is beautiful, the suites are great for family units. Staff friendly and breakfast is amazing!

The staff provided good customer service.

Throughout the facility, it was evident that the facility is in desperate need of a major remodel. There was a constant musky smell in the facility. Fixtures were outdated.

The room was decent and clean for the most part. There was a crunched up sock in the curtain, which was weird but we didn't mind it. Overall, the property was quiet, and we had a good night's sleep. Honestly, we spent very minimal time at the hotel itself.

Needs some updating. Shower doors, etc.

For some reason I felt this was an indoor hotel, not a motel. Past that shock, the location is very convenient. The room is small with a tiny bathroom. The bed was not comfortable and the cable tv has bad reception. Want coffe? Think again, as i checked the coffee maker there was an used coffee pouch in- do they ever get cleaned?! I say this is ok for a one night stay, not a good deal for the price.

The room decor, comfort and the surroundings were nice.

We were in room 242 which was right next to the front desk, on the first floor. During the evening (10:00 - 10:30 PM) we could hear the noise from someone walking around in the room above. I couldn't figure out why there was so much movement in a small room. The same thing happened in the early morning (6:00 AM - 6:45 AM) It reminded me of a cheap apartment in New York where you could hear the person on the floor above bustling about, getting ready for bed and for work in the morning. Wasn't happy. Front desk said the usual.. "sorry about that". Words are words. Lowering my bill makes me feel a little better. For $300+ per night, I should sleep like a baby.

Room have no insolution at all, can't sleep till 2am due to next door's noise.

BED

THE BREAKFAST

Location. Front desk staff was very helpful!

WiFi signal was spotty in our room.

Conveniently located on State street. Short walk to downtown, and across the street from Cantwells deli/market. Recently remodeled, so everything is new and clean. Towels were nice and plush. My room was small, but that was fine. Decent free breakfast in the morning, and the coffee wasn't bad.

A tad bit noisy if your room borders the street. But traffic dies down at night, so it didn't keep me awake. Wifi speeds/latency weren't great.

I liked the convenience to major restaurants and shopping. It was not too far from the beach. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

I can't think of anything that I didn't like.

Historic hotel. Great location! Friendly staff

A bit noise at night from the surrounding bars but not too bad. Rooms are a bit small Only one slow antique elevator.

Great location, it is right at the very central of downtown area. Close to all the good eating locations. the room is clean. Staff is very friendly.

THE ELEVATOR!!!! OMG!!!!

Great location/service and friendly staff.

Very friendly and dedicated staff; breakfast included hot and cold items and was well-stocked with friendly service; pool area was nice and water was kept very warm; beds were comfortable, room felt spacious for a family; sliding glass doors to patio did an amazing jobof blocking street noise. We would definitely stay here again.

In planning girls weekend in Santa Barbara, I was trying to find a hotel that was on the more inexpensive side, centrally located to all the action on State Street, yet comfortable for four women with all our bags. This place was perfect! The price was totally reasonable and the room was clean and spaceous. We had an amazing weekend and will definitely stay here again next time we visit. :)

The hotel is conveniently located at the end of State St with an easy walk to most shops and restaurants. There is ample parking for guests and the front desk employees were extremely helpful. Breakfast was mediocre but one can't complain when it is complimentary. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Although the walls were a little thin. For the price and location I would without a doubt, recommend to fellow travelers.

Great location

location grounds weather

check in staff not great and not accommodating small amount of toiletries in bathroom like they were trying to save money pool area really busy and not a lot of seating lobby dated

Reception wasn't friendly Very poor shower, almost no running water

good location

worn and used building, quite noisy inside, breakfast not really good

The hotel felt old and worn out. The Wi-Fi didn't work consistently. The tub didn't drain and even a short shower resulted in standing in ankle deep water.

We had such a great time and were extremely pleased with the West Beach Inn! Everything about the hotel was perfect.....the staff, the room, the grounds and the pool were exceptional!

Location, location, location

Roommate couldn't get into room before 4pm when she arrived mid morning. Not sure what priorities are used to determine which room is cleaned first... was it because I booked through a travel metasearch engine rather than the hotel? Also really surprised that the printer needed a cartridge to print, and staff was not able to print our boarding passes on another printer.

Attractive grounds

The room was tiny and very hot with no air circulating. We had to check out.

Waterfront location, architecturally attractive older main building

Steep parking cost, no free wifi in the (ancillary) building I was in

Not much to like there

Old, run down and grossly overpriced. Garbage truck visits every morning - noise as if it is parking in your room. Oh yes, do not forget freeway noise - omnipresent. We were seduced by the brand name and made a mistake. Not all Hyatt properties are made equal. This one is a dump.

It was within walking distance of many restaurants. The best part was it was directly across the street from the beach!

Unfortunetly, I cannot comment on one feature or attribute that I enjoyed at the Alamar By The Sea Motel. The rooms looked absolutely nothing like the ones online. They were extremely small and cramped. You literally had to step sideways to cross the bed. The room was adorned with furniture that looked like it came from a yard sale.... 20 years ago. There wasn't an iron in the room, and only 2 out of the 4 lights functioned properly. Parking was a pain because they only had 8 or 10 parking spots, but they were compact, and small. I was always worried that it was going to get damanged. The breakfast was a joke, they crammed a waffle maker on the front counter at the reservation desk. This motel was a terrible disappointment.

The gardens and grounds were absolutely beautiful - flowering plants, herbs, trees, all meticulously maintained. The accommodations were very attractive - all decorated in excellent taste. A beautiful, peaceful place.

Food and wine and lodging were all excessively expensive. Not much to do there, no tennis courts, for example.

Very nice hotel, great staff, and it's so nice to get breakfast in the morning. Only complaint was we have little kids and so needed a room with two beds and the full beds are a bit small...even though they were very comfortable.

It was an absolutely gorgeous hotel. No two rooms are alike. Classical feel with a few modern embelishments. Heated pool was wonderful and hot tub was great.

The staff could have been more approachable and proactively helpful. I saw a lot of forheads (looking down at computer screens or otherwise "busy" despite no guests at the desk. The hot water situation was less than ideal. Nosy yet what combination you did, it would periodically get scorching hot then cold, then resume a tolerable temperature for a few minutes.

The service and property are the best we've seen in southern California we really enjoyed our stay and it's such beautiful scenery that you must stay at this hotel the food was delicious and they even have a car to take you where ever you want to go so you don't have to worry about driving after an all day wine tasting. The concierge will set up tours for you and give you advice on which placeset to visit while you are there a 5 star hotel hands down

Location, the room

No Wi-fi, no shower cap, and the fees for every little thing (like parking, food) were very high.

Tennis courts and overall ambiance

Room I initially got smelled really bad and we had to get switched. Unacceptable for the price we paid

nothing

IT DOESNT SAY ITS A HOSTEL WHAT IS THAT HOSTELS ARE FOR RUN AWAYS AND HOMELESS THE ROOM WAS SMALL THERE WAS NO AIR IT WAS HOT AND NASTY AND UGH

Good location. Good breakfast.

Small room, a bit noicy. The bathrooms were not that Clean and the shower Worked poorly.
