Top UC SB Events Center Hotel Reviews

Motel 6 Goleta, CA - Santa Barbara

8/10 Good

"The property was old but well maintained. It has enough parking and the staff was very helpful. The room was not big but enough for 2 adults and 2 kids (10, 12 yo)."

Sandpiper Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly help at the desk for check in and check out. Quiet, comfortable room. Was just there for the night and did some work in the PM and AM, so I didn't use the facilities. Had some fruit I brought along for breakfast, so didn't sample offering. But a shopping center less that a block away for anyone that wants to walk to dinner or other meal. Just a short drive to the beach and downtown area for more stuff to do. Recommend Helena Ave Bakery for an excellent scone (is that scone with an "o" like 'alone' or like the "o" in 'dog'?) I would stay there again. And probably use the pool, exercise room and sample the breakfast. Hope you will."

Hampton Inn Santa Barbara/Goleta

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was amazing! Very helpful with all my questions and all services were so fast in response. The room I had was a little odd where things were placed, but we were in a handicap room so I probably should think much into it. The bed was so comfortable! I'm a mom of a 3 year old and a 1 year old. I haven't slept much in the last 4 years, and I slept really well in my bed. Thank you! Breakfast was nice too. There was something there for each of my family members which is really hard for even me to do."
