First trip to Santa Barbara
It was very nice, Molly at the front desk was super helpful. She really put me at ease for my first trip to Santa Barbara. Only one thing that wasn’t great was the fact that there was no coffee until 6:30 in the morning. It would be nice to have breakfast in the mornings as well.

Overall, the rooms and property were as expected. I just happened to specifically choose this property for the hot tub, which it turned out was not hot whatsoever. It would be generous to say that the water temperature was lukewarm, and when I asked the front desk whether it could be adjust to be warmer, the response was just No. The TV in our room also stopped working the second day (the channels started glitching and wouldn't display properly). I completely understand that maintenance issues can occur, I guess it would be nice to have some sort of response to convey that expectations may not have been met. Although everything else served our purposes, I'm not sure I would choose this property again.

Great service. Nice property. Clean and my kids kept saying “this is fancy!!” It’s a classic corporate hotel with lots of amenities and designed professionally at scale. Nice lobby and TV with Netflix app. Beds were comfortable. Space in the corner for a pack n play. Cool courtyard with mini golf and big fire tables. Nice restaurant area wasn’t an afterthought. Even saw actual repairs happening in one room. Deep cleaning of AC filters in another room 👍 Only con was no free breakfast, which for some I expected . That and the bottom fitted sheets kept falling off the bed. Didn’t affect comfort just unprofessional.
