Great location at the heart of the wharf and base of State Street. Hotel is a bit dated. Rooms are spacious and beds comfortable but definitely not a 4 star hotel as advertised.

This was a really nice stay close enough to downtown Santa Barbara to walk and to go for walks on the promenade. I enjoyed the room amenities and staff was helpful whenever I spoke to the front desk.

I particularly appreciated the pool. It was kept at just the right temperature and cleaned thoroughly each morning, along with all furniture around it. It was conveniently located to the pier and to several restaurants (within walking distance). Staff were all cordial and helpful. I can think of nothing to criticize. It was a top-notch operation.
