Historical yet disappointing
The hotel as a whole was pretty run down. It has an authentic historic feel and with additional investment it has the potential to be a remarkable destination and stay while in Santa Barbara.

Great location to all of downtown Santa Barbara and interesting how long the property was around. Great parking, but limited. Not so great things: no control on AC and VERY cold, loud before 9am, no staff at the front desk at night even though was told they would be there all night, first day staff a bit snippy, but the second day new staff was better.

Very quiet and walkable to State Street with shopping and historical buildings. Lots of options for dining and able to walk to the end on the wharf. Cottages are a little dated and could use some “refresh” but overall an excellent stay. Would return again.
