Very rude front desk check in. Staff seemed irritable and unwelcoming. Room out dated and slightly moldy smelling. Sheets and pillows old and uncomfortable. Will never go back!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The grounds are beautiful. The rooms are musty and old. I went to open the windows to air out the stinky room and the blinds and window sills were SO dirty I had to wash my arms and hands when done. There are no outlets at the bedside table to charge phones over night and there is no phone in the room. The bathroom has NO fan so all the showering moisture would just stay in the bathroom and room. I wouldn't recommend it and we would never stay there again. We're still trying to find a good reasonable hotel near Montecito because my friend and I do chamber music workshops twice a year there.
