The room was quite small, which in and of itself was not a problem, but the walls are very thin, so noise from adjacent rooms and those above was a bit much. The tub shower has no safety rails, important because I slipped in the shower and ended up on my back on the floor. The tub when wet was very slick, and with nothing to grab on to when I slipped meant I had no way to keep from falling. I luckily just have a few bruises, but I fell inches away from the bathroom sink, and had I hit my head on the sink the outcome would have been much more serious. I encourage the hotel to install safety bars/rails.

The staff was friendly and courteous, and the room was nicely decorated. The bed was quite comfortable.

musty smelling room, facility needs updating, ants in bathroom, tub only drained when the shower was on, and people on fire escape right outside our bathroom window which needed to be open when showering due to poor ventilation.

location was great,staff were wonderful and the bed was super comfortable.

Extra money automatically charged for food I didn’t want. Food was mediocre and overpriced in the restaurant. We came to SB partly to check out different restaurants. Didn’t want to pay for a restaurant that we had no interest in.

Nice room, valets charged my e car each night! Pool was nice, if a little small. Close to Butterfly Beach.

We were very disappointed in the rooms- especially for the price. They are in dire need of updating- frayed bed frames- can see padding underneath- looks 20 yrs. old- worn dressers. Very small bathrooms but we managed.

Restaurant is very good. All staff are excellent and very willing to accommodate needs, answer questions. Location very good.

Would have been nice to have a coffee/tea maker in the room

Liked the way they made a unique older property nice. I liked the valet parking which gave excellent service. Our room was nice and spacious with a comfortable bed.

It had noisy roadworks outside which was unfortunate. Also a busy Highway the other side, but you didn’t notice it.

It was in a good location near the beach and close to the highway. The hotel was clean and efficient and good value.

Noisy toilet that needed to be fixed. Hotel discounted to address. Most appreciated.

The weekend breakfast, location to multiple beaches, and onsite restaurant.

Since COVID every service is poor. Housekeeping on demand coffee in check in area slow elevator if available valet required because in room rate.

Location

Stayed in July 2023

It was an incredibly noisy location due to proximity to the freeway plus construction going in right outside the entrance. A bit challenging to get decent sleep.

The staff were wonderful, helpful and accommodating. The pool and hot tub were very nice, room was clean and bed very comfortable.

Work was getting carried out whilst we were on the property, this lead to quite a bit of noise quite early.

Bed was comfortable, staff friendly.

Because it’s older the bathroom was tiny. Not usually a problem but we were there for a wedding so took a bit of planning to get ready etc.

The location was good and the property has lots of charm. The food at the restaurant was very good. The pool area was beautiful. It was too cool to be in the water but a nice place to lounge. The bikes were a nice addition as a way to sightsee.

location.

You’re paying for the Montecito location so don’t expect a bargain. Rooms - at least in our older part - are cozy with some pretty beat-up furniture and fixtures. And yes, bath rooms are very tiny, one person at a time - in ours the door scraped the toilet seat when it closed!

Great location in walkable upscale ‘village’. Pool and hot tub good for family, good fitness room. it’s an old hotel, cozy and charming and a bit worn but clean. Beds very comfy, tho room clean is by request only. Noise at nite wasn’t a problem for us. Friendly staff. A big plus - our 3 generation fam of 5 had adjoining rooms with connecting door!

great location

Bathrooms are a little dated and I could clearly hear the people in the room next to me.

Location very convenient to the party I was attending. Room was comfortable and to my surprise received an early check in which I didn't expect. Easy access to the restaurant from the lobby for breakfast. I was able to walk to anything I needed which is a big plus when you are in a new area. Worth taking a walk to Butterfly Beach taking in the scenery and ocean air. I only stayed on night this trip so can not speak to the other amenities of the Inn.

Small

Very small and check in agent didn’t let me know that I needed to request maid service to get the room cleaned. Although room was cleaned after I complained.

The room was very small. I understand that it is an older property.

Location was excellent! Staff was very polite. Room was clean.

Stayed in June 2022

I didn’t like how close the property was to the highway. The hot tub was a strange green color and didn’t seem clean.

I liked the vintage feel and history of the property. I love that they had complimentary bikes for us to use. I like that it was close to Butterfly beach and the main area in Montecito. The staff was friendly and helpful.
