    The location was impeccable. Only a street away from the beachfront and a ten minute walk from the train station. The rooms were quiet and comfortable, looking out onto the greenery. No frills stay with a simple breakfast (cereal, bagels, spreads) and a complimentary wine happy hour for guests.

    The villa was in a perfect location for us, very near a host of bars and restaurents and well within walking distance of State Street - the main street of the city. Our 2nd room was large, airy and perfectly clean.

    This place will divide the crowd. For us the perfect location outweighed the downsides. You're a stone's throw from the pretty and relaxed beachfront of santa Barbara. The suite was huge with comfy beds. Well appointed kitchen. Personally I also liked the really rather wonderfully unkempt garden. It also boasts a hot tub and provides a front row seat for hummingbird viewing.
