This is more like apartment hotel. Better than Airbnb. Everything is nice and clean. Covered garage is a plus, one per unit. Easy access, check in and check out was supper convenient. Unit is supplied with all amenities which is nice and it's free of charge. Will definitely book this place again.

We had such a comfortable and enjoyable stay! The hotel was in a great location, making it easy to walk around downtown and get to all the places we wanted to visit. The room was clean, cozy, and comfortable, and we really appreciated being able to relax and feel at home after a full day of exploring. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay here again the next time we’re in Santa Barbara. Highly recommend! 😊

Every part of this little studio was perfect. Easy check-in. Nice features, from bedside lamps to huge TV. Huge bathtub. Comfy bed. Super clean. Great A/C and separate high quality air filter unit, I’ve never woken up in a hotel without having a slightly sore throat from the A/C, but not here! Great location, walking distance to great coffee, breakfast, lunch and dinner spots. Can’t wait to come back and stay again.
