I could not locate this place for a few minutes as I arrived on my first night but discovered it was down the winding road on Yanonnall St from US-101 South. This was the only affordable place; yet, the location and the staff were excellent. The parking was good. It is walkable to Stearn's Wharf/Pier and extremely close to State St (the main drag). Approximately, a ten-minute walk to the nearest convenience stores. I visited the Pres. Reagan Ranch Museum- a short walk. I drove to Carpinteria (under 10 miles) for a surf lesson- no problem. In the late afternoon/evenings, I would briefly sit on the lounge chair outside for a little rest. I also used my PC inside near the front desk. On my first night, I purchased a locker from the front desk to store my backpack that stored my PC. One negative- the Men's Room running water pressure was slow & one of the faucets did not work. I recommend this place for a serene weekend!
