Great location for beach, walking and views. Rooms on upper level have vaulted ceilings, bright and roomy. Continental breakfast was really good. Only complaint is that they did not care whatsoever about recycling plastic, glass or anything!

Easy check in/check out process. Parking included on the property (covered and uncovered spots). Location is great. A couple blocks from the water and main street. Rooms were good size and clean. Good noise cancellation. We didn’t hear any of our neighbors.

I give it a mixed review. This is the second time I stayed here. The first time was better than this time. Excellent location, coffee, cleanliness, and outdoor aesthetics. Problems: The bed is extremely soft to the point of marshmallow. We had to change rooms 3 times due to screaming plumbing pipes, and inadequate accommodations. The room we ended up in was a view of the parking lot and main street traffic with a noisy a/c that kept us awake. The breakfast food is not good. The water is icky so bring bottled water for yourself. Also, you will need to bring your own soap, shampoo and conditioner and lotion because the hotel provisions are icky. Prices are way to high for what you get.

The hotel was small but beautiful, its Spanish style and the attention to detail was evident throughout the hotel. A walk away from the marina, shops, and restaurants.

Our stay at La Playa Inn was delightful. On our arrival we were given loads of information about the town centre and how to navigate and some suggestions for sightseeing. The hotel itself was immaculately clean and spacious. With two teenage girls there was plenty of room to prep for going out. We were a 3 minute walk to the beach and a 12 minute walk to the town hub. We loved staying in Santa Barbara I would highly recommend the town and this hotel.
