10/10 Exceptional

Charming hotel downtown
Very charming hotel with private bungalow rooms and absolutely beautiful grounds. Part of "charming" is that it is a little older, so though it's well kept up generally, do expect some of the things that come with age like thinner walls and slightly older bathrooms. Perfect location just a block and a half from State Street and the historic Arlington theater!

Cutest hotel, great location, amazing staff - such a nice stay
Christine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very cute hotel with nice amenities. Our king room was super spacious and fit our many bags as we were travelling with our 3 month old! There were a lot of areas around the hotel to lounge so although the hotel was full it never felt overcrowded. We enjoyed the complimentary morning pastries, fruit, and coffee and the evening glass of wine. The location was great, right next to the Santa Barbara public market football and a quick walk to state street. Finally, the staff was so nice and made us feel at home! Would definitely stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

Loved the fact that this property has so much history. The original person who built it is a distant cousin of Abraham Lincoln, it was originally built in 1871, oldest and longest running hotel in California. Renovated, yet maintained its beauty.

Charming, clean and in a great location!
Andrew, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The room smelled like mildew and the bathroom had hairs on the carpet from the previous guest. The location to the Main Street was excellent.
Carmen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is very nice and unique property located within a short distance to a part of the downtown area with plenty of restaurants, movie theater, etc. The property is very well kept, inside and outside, and we looked the large garden space to relax in.

Focus of property is a courtyard lawn with seating on the lawn. Peaceful, lovely garden, hummingbirds and small bunnies.
