Lovely hotel in Santa Barbara
A lovely little hotel in Santa Barbara. The driveway was a little easy to miss and I had to pull into the Motel 6 parking next door before sneaking over. The rooms were clean and comfortable.

This property is a little more affordable than some others in the area, and it does have a decent pool and hot tub, but we found the beds and sheets to be uncomfortable. There is just a small continental breakfast in the morning with coffee, muffins, fruit, cereal and a few pastry type items. Unfortunately, the only creamer was a vanilla creamer. My friend and I ended up going to a local patisserie for breakfast where there was decent coffee. All in all this hotel is decent for the price. Front desk staff were very friendly and accommodating.
