"The Upham is located close to various sites in urban Santa Barbara; it is bit further to the beach and harbor. The property consists of several buildings with a variety of room types for rent. There are also several, pleasant seating areas both outside and inside the main building where reception is.
I stayed in a room in the building (Lincoln?) directly behind the main reception building and restaurant. The room was spacious with a comfortable bed. It did have a musty smell, so I requested a room fan (provided). I alerted staff the next day that my air conditioner wasn't working properly, so hopefully that was addressed. Fortunately, my windows could be opened, and it was cool enough to not be a problem.
My room was on the ground floor directly behind the kitchen and seating area for the restaurant. As such, it was a bit smelly back there, and there was noise from the restaurant and kitchen from late afternoon until later in the evening. This wasn't too bad, but just be aware.
It definitely was quiet enough during the night, as I did sleep well once the restaurant wound down operations for the night. There is a light continental breakfast provided, as well as wine in the evening.
There is limited parking behind the property, so it's advisable to park and never use your car if possible.
I can recommend this property as a reasonable place to stay in Santa Barbara."
