smelly non-smoking room
My non-smoking room reeked of cigarettes. The front desk refused to give me a receipt or tell me how much I had been charged when I checked out. They said "your receipt is available from Expedia ". I travel to Santa Barbara frequently and I will never stay here again.

Front desk lady was very rude and made me pay an extra $100 deposit. The room was okay and clean but the furniture was very outdated and the mirror frame was broken. Just looked run down.
Rosita, 1-night trip

Would not recommend anyone stay here. Very overpriced, worse than a motel 6

Liz, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good overall
Decent little motel in a convenient location in the city. Great little coffee shop next door (Vices & Spices). Room was comfortable, little run down but expected for an old motel. Overall good experience.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

There the door didn't seal all the way (light would show through around the doorframe), and it could probably use some paint. But all went well, and I'd probably stay there again.
Brian, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Relatively low cost and reasonable accommodations
Easy, quick check in and check out. Quiet for a downtown location. Room was clean and reasonably well appointed. Only negative is the room needs to be repainted; several areas on the walls were badly marred.
Robert, 1-night trip
