Cozy & Private Room in Goleta

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful host! We accidentally left behind meaningful jewelry - the host found the jewelry, notified us immediately, and shipped it back to our home address. We are so grateful and would absolutely stay here again!"

Ramada by Wyndham Santa Barbara

10/10 Excellent

"I arrived an hour early hoping my room would be ready but understanding check-in wasn’t until 4pm. Housekeeping was running late and I didn’t get into my room until 5:30pm. I would have appreciated knowing they were that far behind prior to sitting and waiting so long. Other than that my stay was perfect. The room was great. The location was perfect. Breakfast was sufficient and the grounds were beautiful. The best part were the ducks on the property. I loved interacting with them and was especially pleased that I could feed them a couple times with food from the vending machine. :) The staff were polite as well. It was a good stay."
