This Santa Barbara, California hotel is located 3 miles from Stearn’s Wharf on the Pacific Ocean. The hotel offers free WiFi and cable TV in every room. Our apartment was very clean and seemed renovated! The room was very spacious, especially the living room. We had a great time with my family citing and chatting there. I'd say that it's a great place for family gatherings. We totally loved it. We didn't have a chance to check the pool but they do have it. Also, they have a restaurant on their territory. The property has a lot of parking spaces but FYI they consider 1 parking space per 1 room. We had 2 cars and the manager was nice enough to give us the second parking because they had a lot of rooms available. In our room, we had a fully functioning kitchen so we bought some groceries and had a family diner right in our room. It was great! And the most important part we had a coffee maker in our room :)

Inn at East Beach 2 stars
Hotel in East Beach, Santa Barbara
This hotel is 2 miles from Santa Barbara and within a 5-minute walk of the Santa Barbara Zoo. It offers an outdoor pool, a patio, and rooms with flat-screen TVs. Only booked this hotel on our way while driving, and chose one of the least expensive options so my expectations were quite low. However the hotel room was exceptionally clean. Everything one would expect was readily available. It is quite cold and we only needed a place to sleep for a night, but the hotel was quite close to the beach, which is a plus, considering it would be a prime location for a summer getaway.

What guests said about Santa Barbara:
-
Santa Barbara is beautiful, but that hotel was quite bad.
Santa Barbara is beautiful, but that hotel was quite bad. For $247, plus tax to $274, it was overprixed for the condition of the facility. There were piles of stuff, such as old stove, furniture, mattresses in the parking lot and in the walkways. The floors of the walkways were filthy with peeling, chipped paint. The room itself was clean, with clean sheets, but they didn't have a mattress pad on the bed so the mattress will soon be stained. There were 3 regular pillows on the king bed. I asked for another pillow and got it.

There just so many things to do, from surfing, sunning, walking, biking, hiking, shopping, people watching, and on and on. I did not even visit the various museums which I plan on doing next time. Food options are fantastic, too many good places to mention. As a final note the weather was absolutely perfect, 75 degrees and sunny.

It was just a couple of days there before going further down the coast. It was absolutely beautiful. It may sound hyperbolic but the people at the hotel were stupendous. After a long couple of years, it was nice to in the watch the waves roll in as the sun set.

The State street was very good.
The State street was very good. I enjoyed the ambience and shops of this venue. Getting around was easy with GPS. Ralphs groceries was good for affordable food and healthy choices. I would avoid booking a Hotel away from the water next time.

Very well-maintained, lovely motel near the main coastal avenue and in walking distance to the center of Santa Barbara. Rooms are freshly renovated and bathrooms are updated, beds are comfortable, so everything is great and cozy. The staff at the reception is very friendly and helpful, e.g., we could rent bikes for free to explore the area, which was fantastic. Complimentary coffee and cookies were offered throughout the whole day, good breakfast in the morning was included. We would stay there again.

The reception process was easy and very friendly. The hotel is located on Union Street, the main street of that wonderful town Santa Barbara. It takes approx a 10 minute walk to reach the lovely atmospheric restaurant part of Union Street. You will find a great choice of restaurants and sights on that street. The beds were comfortable and clean. We got a nice breakfast.

Angela United States -
From £233 per night
Impeccable service provided by the staff, especially the staff who served me on 23rd Feb! I’m sorry I forgot his name but he was really hospitable. Our rooms probably got upgraded to a suite because it was a weekday when we checked in and it was really kind on the hotel’s part. The location was very convenient as it was a walking distance to the beach and eateries. Despite the reviews online that the hotel looked tired, I disagree with the statement because I think they did revamp it lately and it looked as good as other hotels I’ve stayed at. Before booking, I read reviews that the carpark area looks shady but I assure you it’s not.
