The hotel was fairly clean and charming, loved the very comfy beds. We were lucky to have best staff. Standard king room had upgrades, it was spotless and spacious. Extraordinary service throughout the venue. The location was favourable, just off winery's in santa barbara, shops, the main part of town. .
