The hotel was beautifully decorated with absolutely perfect location short walk to restaurants and the tube and city center. The staff was best, as well as owner. The service was friendly, including an easy check-in.
I enjoyed its very pleasant employees.
I didn't feel like leaving, had a very nice experience and will come back. Small hotel with efficient location near downtown, and the breakfast was tasty. Airy room and excellent communication with the staff. Easy check in and a friendly service throughout my stay. Excellent reception.
Actually everything was well-maintained, my next choice again in Santa Barbara. The hotel was fairly clean and budget, had good wi-fi. Airy, fancy room and delightful breakfast, really kind staff. The bed was fine, friendly service. Quick check-in, easy check-out. The venue had a secluded location near downtown. Local fast food option Cantwell's Market & Deli was 15 minutes walk away.
