Clean and nice hotel . Good parking . Nice area. But my check in was not pleasant. Not enough information about property and amenities provided. Front desk staff need more training. It felt like we were interrupting them. Another problem was the room temperature. The door was not sealed so the cold air was blowing in to the room and the air conditioning system wasn’t able to warm the room .

UCSB visit
Best Westerns in general are nice. This was very resort like. The people were very nice. Having free breakfast is great when you need something in a hurry and you don't really no the area. It's centrally located between downtown and UCSB where we were visiting. The rooms are a decent size. The beds and pillows were fantastic. I know that seems odd but nothing like a comfy bed when your traveling.

After arriving at this hotel after 16 hours of travel I was assigned a room with a door lock that was not functioning properly and my travel belongings including the key to my rental car were trapped in the room until they located a physical key to get into the room. In a 1 week business travel stay I had to switch rooms 3 times.

The front desk staff rude and unprofessional Cristina M who is a manager there charged us one night $ almost $400 . First she said $100 security fee. But my account was charged $400. I told her we already paid on Expedia website. He responds was too bad. Not my fault, someone else made a mistake. I am extremely disappointed and it was very unprofessional the way she treated me and my husband.
