housekeeping upon request - I requested, and they never came - then, after being told they would come, again, they did not come, at which point I was told that there would be a turndown serve. Again, I returned to an unkept room.

The Montecito Inn is in an excellent location. Staff were all really friendly. Room was comfortable and clean. The air conditioner didn’t work and the toilet didn’t flush well. But I would definitely stay there again.
