The registration desk staff were acting mechanically, too unfriendly.

Hotels in Santa Barbara are too expensive for what they are. Carpinteria is not too far from Santa Barbara, it is a small town with a nice beach and with accommodations that are more affordable.

Breakfast was good. The location was excellent. It was good for two nights. Carpinteria is a great place to stay in between Ventura and Santa Barbra. No traffic to speak of. Easy to park for a beach city.

My biggest qualm would be the outdated toilets. It's the type where the bowl fills slowly with water and the flusher handle is an old crank on the side. It's 2022, we are sending people to Mars, let's get updated quick flushing toilets installed everywhere. The kind with "big flush" and "little flush" buttons on its top.

The shower was high pressure, the whole room was clean, the staff were friendly and the newness of the place was more than expected. I am always worried of outdated"retro" hotels that are like romanticized by such qualities but practically are not doing it for me.

Their breakfast, which was included, was overrun with too many people to be safe during a pandemic. When will hotels realize that placing the AC/heater right next to the bed is a horrible design????

Lots of free parking, including some covered, which was great because it was raining when we arrived. The room was very spacious for the two of us and our dog

Minutes away from the beach. The outdoor pool was really heated and we were able to be there with the kids for a few hours, although the weather outside was cool.

I informed the front desk that the towel rack next to the sink was broken. They informed me their handy man would be in the room in the next hour or so to make the repair and that I did not need to be in the room for the repair. I waited an hour at the pool and returned to my room and nothing was repaired. Nobody came that day or the next day for the repair and no follow-up. It was more of a communication issue for me to either let me know ok they will be coming at this time or not.

I like the comfort and cleanliness of the rooms, the location of the hotel is very convenient for travel, and the staff was very friendly and professional. The pool and jacuzzi was a great bonus. Plus, the parking is very convenient.

The hot water in our room was too cold.

Breakfast was very good. A little more variety would have been nice. Maybe mixing it up with a potato dish.

We booked 2 rooms a month in advance. Room #1 with a king bed and room #2 with double Queen beds. Room #1 with the king bed was to have been switched to be handicap accessible and received confirmation it would be changed to double bed to make the accommodations possible. We agreed. Unfortunately, on the day of arrival we found that it was room #2 that was made handicap accessible. Only difference between both room is the walk in shower instead of tub. We didn't want to make a big deal of it because my father felt ok with it and the person that checked us in was polite but not nice if you know what i mean. He said we were lucky we'd gotten the last room. Again, I had booked a month in advance! At the end, we could have done without the handicap accessibility because the walk in shower was so messy and water splattered all over the bathroom floor! we had to lay out towels in order to not walk on water and avoid from slipping. Truly a hazard.

Loved the cleanliness and amenities. The pool was warm and easily accessible. Breakfast had a variety of options. We had mistakenly forgotten an insulin pen in the fridge and even-though it took being placed on hold for a while and calling back several times, Brianna and Aaron were helpful in keeping it safe while we drove back to pick it up.

Our room was next to the pool. It would be better if pool hours ended earlier. 10pm is a bit late when trying to put a toddler to sleep

Overall great experience. Staff are super responsive and friendly. Breakfast was delicious and liked having the option of coffee, tea in the lobby.
