Power outages
Good overall, but there is a noisy pool repair in the morning. Also when we attempted to use microwave - power to TV, fridge and microwave oven turned off.. Called office - they turned some switch back on. Then in less than a minute the same power outage. Repeated - and it worked this time. Manager said that too many rooms were trying to use microwave simultaneously:)

just okay
The rooms need to have better quality beds and bedding in general as well as warm blankets I had to leave the heater on all night because it was freezing inside. Also egg for breakfast would be nice instead of just oatmeal, fruit and pastry some type of protein for breakfast please

We went to Santa Barbara for a family event and found this place - a great stay at a family style motel. Very friendly and helpful front desk. Pool and breakfast were nice. This is an excellent value in an otherwise crazy expense town. Would highly recommend.

Breakfast did not have as many options, website mentioned eggs but it only had fruits, yogurt, oatmeal and breads. Pool area was under construction. Parking was plenty. Overall a good and clean stay, room was spacious but would’ve liked to see other breakfast options.

The staff was friendly and the actual room was great and well-supplied. However I’d like some access to water! Vending machines were out and no water in the room. Also, the room we were in was close to the laundry facilities for the motel and the workers were yelling and being loud at like 8 AM right outside our room… not how we like to be woken up on our vacation
