It's a block-long collection of old hotels along Cabrillo Blvd, all brought under one management. It successfully preserves the lovely vibe of the Santa Barbara waterfront and is a walkable distance from the Funk Zone. What it lacks in modern amenities, it makes up with location and vintage charm.

Place was nice and walking distance to everywhere. We got the room 125 which was right next to the entrance / valet and it was pretty loud early in the mornings and when everyone would come back at night. The only perk was that the two beds were in two separate rooms instead of beside each other. But if you want your blinds open everyone will be right outside the window. Would stay again but ask for a different room.

I thought the hotel was nice. The rooms were small but clean and the bed was comfortable. The one thing I did not like was the $32/day parking fee. That is an awful lot of money just to park. When you are a guest, parking should be complimentary.

Ok so I was not impressed by the place ! Yes the location is nice its right infront of ocean. But we got a lil room tucked away in the back corner . For the price I pay I was expecting a better room with a better view !! And the the other issue was the parking . They should have self serve parking for costumers !! Come on valet parking for everyone?!.you should have a choice . I will definitely check out other places next time.

More of a motel than a hotel. No elevator. Carried our luggage up outside stairs. Poor lighting especially in the bathroom vanity area.

I was at five hotels down the coast of California and this was my least favorite. Although the staff is very nice the room they gave me was tiny and the bathroom shower was like a narrow tube you could barely get into. Desperately needed upgrading and an old armoire right in front of the only window. Thank goodness they had one other room which was Slightly better and the manager was very nice about moving me just a couple rooms over. There is not a whole lot to do in Santa Barbara but they did have a pier right across the street to stroll around and some good restaurants nearby. I didn’t know that it was $35 a day for valet parking even though they have a parking lot that could fit all the cars right on the property but I have to say the valets were extremely nice and very helpful telling me how to get around and bring my suitcase upstairs. I’m guessing some other rooms were nicer But at $300 a night my room definitely didn’t seem worth it.
