about staying here.
★★★★★
“We had a perfect stay for our one night stop in Santa Barbara. Unit 21 is beautiful and perfect for our needs for a quick stay. We love to walk and everything we needed was .5 - .8 miles within the hotel. The staff were amazing to quickly respond to our requests for recommendations. The bed was super comfy and I loved having my cup of nespresso on the balcony which overlooks the mountains.”
★★★★★
“My girl and I stayed at this place in SB and it was absolutely perfect. It smelled great, awesome views, coffee and tea in the morning, seamless check in and check out, extremely clean and well put together place. You get what you pay for here (in a good way), and I think that it is great value for the price you pay. I would 100% stay again.”

“Unit 21 was perfect for my 3 day visit. I loved having a fridge and microwave for beverages and snacks. Easy walk to State St and the restaurant and beach areas. I was always able to get parking in the garage but street parking looked ok too. The area was quiet and felt safe. Loved having the small patio with Mountain View for early morning sunrise. Inside the unit, most things seemed newish and in good condition. So grateful for the AC as it was hot this week. Would stay here again!”
