Plain but great for the budget conscious
We are locals who wanted a staycation that wouldn't bust our budget. This place is in a great location, only a block from the beach, and a lot cheaper than the beach facing hotels. Yes, the room was tiny, with few amenities (but had a mini fridge and coffee maker) but super clean and quiet with ample parking. Just note that it is right next to another hotel and go to the correct check in office! It doesn't look like much from the street but we consider it a hidden gem we will recommend to our budget conscious friends.

No WiFi and a kitchen w/zero utensils or items
I got a suite and there was NO internet and NO phone signal. When I complained they said their internet simply didn't reach that far and suggested I used the WiFi of the Motel 6 next door (which wasn't great either). My suite had a kitchen with ZERO utensils, plates, pans, etc. What's the point? Unbelievable. It wasn't cheap either.

Just my two cents
Amazing service from staff. Front desk very accommodating on every request. The only problem is that the hotel needs some TLC meaning some repairs and maintenance are needed.

Comfortable and close to ocean!
We booked last minute while visiting daughter at UCSB. Denise at front desk was very kind and helpful. She even helped us plug in our new Tesla overnight. We’ll be back!

Do not waste your money on this one
The room was dirty - there was so much dust in the “walk in” closet, it tuned black, not when was the last time they mopped the floors but you could see footprints from before on the floor. The floor was so cheaply installed that it was making the loudest noise when you walk around with or without shoes on but you had to have something on because the floors were dirty. The pillows looked someone just stuffed things in there to make pillows. There was no refrigerator in the room and I had throw away so much stuff I got from the store because I could Not chill over night. Room 20 has the worst view by the way. The TV was too small for the room. The WiFi is terrible. It takes forever to connect and when you do is slow. I would NOT recommend it at all. For that money you could stay anywhere else.

There is no sound insolation on the walls so you can hear everything around you. You can hear guests walking on the second level loudly and even conversations next door.

Very disappointed
It was way more expensive than it was worth. The shower wasn’t clean, my wife had an allergic reaction to something in the room (seemed like a cat may have been there), the tv was very small, the internet was super slow and kept disconnecting, and not enough parking.

We had a wonderful stay at Pacific Crest hotel in Santa Barbara. Our room was clean and comfortable, and all staff members were professional, courteous and friendly. Parking was easy and off-street. This is a great location just a few short blocks from East Beach.

A very nice basic hotel. Pretty pool and a spotless facility. Rooms are small but totally workable. Super clean. The Internet isn’t the best but fine for a vacation trip. Neighborhood is very quiet and a short walk to the entertainment and restaurant district. Good for people who like a good buy and can forgive little things like spotty internet.
