Santa Barbara Inns

the online pictures looks great. The room was musty, I opened doors and window to air out, after a few hour the musty odor did not dissipate, my eyes became itchy and watery and I could not stand to be in the room. We had 2 rooms booked for Friday through Monday with my family. The other room did not suffice. The staff tried to look for other rooms to accommodate my family but nil. We ended leaving after a few hours.

My family has stayed at this hotel twice and we love it! The rooms are just fine, and it feels welcoming since it is a relatively small hotel. We love the location (a short wallk down the street to the beach, and a short walk to State St. with many shops and restaurants), and the free bike rentals are so nice! Perfect for riding down to the beach especially since Santa Barbara is so bike friendly. We would absolutely reccomend this hotel!

I promised my wife an in-room massage for her birthday in our Santa Barbara trip. I called and asked how large were the rooms and who they would recommend. I was given the name of the person who ' does this all the time.' When we arrived, we had to cancel the massage because the room was a bit larger than a closet with no room for a massage table. I contacted the front desk and they  could not identify anyone who would have given me that information. The jacuzzi, if you can call it that, (room for 2.5 people) did not open until 9am (really?) The rest of the stay was 'nice' We were not impressed and will not use this facility again

I would stay here again and again... it was perfect!

Staff was very friendly, rooms were clean, beds were comfortable. Great value. Free movies, free bicycles, and free parking. I wish we could've stayed longer.

The location is very close to the watefront and a short cab ride from downtown

The front desk staff was incredibly rude and the rooms are generally pretty crummy for the prices that you're paying. Everything in Santa Barbara is pretty pricey this time of year though.

I liked the proximity to East Beach where the Santa Barbara triathlon was held since I was a participant.

The sliding glass door was heavy and needed to be oiled so it can slide open easier.

Enjoyed the vintage charm and ambiance. Beautiful and relaxing with a very friendly staff. Cozy cottages.

Beds were too squeaky and the slightly thin walls between your neighbors

Great location, walk to numerous small shops and eateries.

Minimal in-room amenities. No in-room coffee maker so you have to walk to the main office for hot water or coffee. Small cramped bathroom. Non-working heater/AC.
