Top Lower State Hotel Reviews

Hotel Santa Barbara

8/10 Good

"Super loud room due to proximity to State Street. We spoke to front desk staff and nothing could be done. Worst night of sleep ever. "

Motel 6 Santa Barbara, CA - Beach

8/10 Good

"Parking felt secure thanks to the bright outdoor lighting that keeps the cars well‑lit throughout the night. The rooms have a great updated look. The only downside was the bathroom — it had a funky odor and didn’t seem as clean as the rest of the space. Great location. "

The Milo

4/10 Poor

"This is supposed to be a high end hotel but they need to improve on the details, Asked for a late check out at 11.30 and got a 11.15 answer??, paid $40 for valet and they game a another car and had to figure out where mine was, got a coffee and they have run out of lids, reserved a regular room and got a accessible room and no one told me at check in. Just details but when you are paying big bucks you expect something different."
