I had a transient person knocking on my door at two and 2:30 in the morning. Not the greatest area in a hotel is below par.

The staff Denise, Esmeralda and Jamie are wonderful. Very courteous, kind and helpful. The room was clean and my stay was amazing. Enjoyed walks on the beach, walk to the warf is about 20-25 mins., so many wonderful restaurant choices.

Beach steps away
Friendly, helpful staff and just one or two minutes walk to the beach. We didn’t try the pool, but it looked inviting. I’m sure this property began it life as a motel, but it has been thoughtfully updated with pleasant furnishings and features. Wi-Fi worked well enough for us to stream a movie (although my son said Wi-Fi was weak in his room). There are even two EV charging stations. Our rooms were squeaky clean and reasonably sized for a quick weekend getaway. I appreciated the coffeemaker and tea kettle. The bathrooms were quite small but everything worked perfectly, with the shower doors being the only giveaway to the past life as a motel!
Robb, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is very near to the beach (walkable distance) and the Santa Barbara zoo is also walkable from the hotel. The kitchen and amenities in the kitchen (including a few utensils that were provided in the kitchen) was a pleasant surprise. One thing that we didn’t like was the washroom size. It was very small and without a bathtub. Apart from that, the rooms were spacious, the front desk staff was courteous. There was ample covered and open parking area for cars and there was 1 EV charging area also.

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.

Basic hotel. Nicely furnished, very small bathrooms Some noise. Good location. Not the best in terms of $ value.
Richard, 2-night trip

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.

Janelle, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not a terrible place to stay, however it looks nothing like what is shown in the description pictures. It’s a basic motel with basic amenities. The location however is very convenient to downtown Santa Barbara.

Very helpful staff, clean, elegant room, beautiful pool area! I would stay here again.

8/10 Very good

It’s fine for a quick over night stay, but not for a nice family vacation. Room is small. But it’s a motel like facility which is expected. Can hear lots of noises outside including the train. Otherwise staff is very nice.
