"The staff helped us on a last minute cancellation due to some of our family members inability to travel due to the hurricane in Kauai. We are so very thankful and grateful for their understanding and compassion through this difficult time for our family! The location of the hotel was great! The only thing is that our shower curtain smelled like it wasn't washed :("

"A delightful, comfortable, quiet retreat in downtown Santa Barbara. The restaurant was excellent for dinner. The garden space and lobby are welcoming and comfortable. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The evening wine...and later, milk and cookies! were a fun bonus. The only slight difficulties are the parking... basically you need to arrive by 5 or so to get a spot, then walk to dinner nearby. The continental breakfast is limited to coffee and pastries; some protein and fruit would have been a good addition. Overall, a favorite place to stay in Santa Barbara."
