Good value and location for visiting the Santa Barbara area. The water for a shower was just warm enough. The breakfast was standard fare for this type of hotel. The rooms were clean and beds comfortable.
We have stayed here a number of times before, and continue to be very pleased with the hotel. Everything is in tip top shape, and the beds are super comfortable. One of the things that keeps us coming back is the outstanding breakfast that is served — lots of options with the best staff!
The electricity was out for 5 hours after arrival. Not their fault but it made our stay more difficult. The staff was very supportive giving us a battery lamp and a room which in spite of the lack of electricity was comfortable. Restaurants, stores and gas stations were all closed so after a 9 hour trip the situation was difficult.
good hotel , nice staff, large room , great for santa brabara trip if you have a car

It’s a dog friendly stay with bags provided at the back entrance. Also have grass area with the tree at the front, so we can walk our dog. Overall, it is decent stay with good variety breakfast choices. We would come back again.
However the motel is a little dated but clean in general. Our dog enjoy it too and snored in the room.
