6.2 out of 10, (91 reviews)
"This place was a complete misrepresentation of their location. There was no pool on site. There were no amenities on site. The mentalities were for a hotel across the street, which is a completely different establishment potentially owned by the same owners, but it’s not in your hotel and items are across the street and you’ll be sharing them with another hotel. Yeah, it’s just a couple minutes from the beach, but it’s not worth the money or the stay"

If you choose to stay at a 4-star hotel in Santa Barbara, you'll typically find lots of conveniences to ensure you're relaxed, such as a restaurant, pool and gym.
