missingWrote a review on Nov 10clean roomsgreat layout
This was just a fitting option for a weekend excursion in Santa Barbara with excellent value for money. The rooms were very clean, even down to the individually cleaned and bagged TV remotes. If you're staying here, request a room away from the jacuzzi side for more privacy.

Had a great time with friends! The free WiFi made it easy to plan our outings, and the coffee and tea-making facilities were a hit every morning. The pool area was really nice for relaxing in the sun. Just a heads up, the cafe closes at 2 PM, so you might want to plan for meals before then.
We experienced some issues with housekeeping. They missed our room cleanings a couple of times, which was disappointing during our stay.

I had a great time with friends during my 2-night stay. The complimentary coffee and tea-making facilities were a hit every morning, and the pool area was perfect for relaxing in the sun. The staff made us feel at home, but I did notice that housekeeping missed a cleaning or two during our stay, which was disappointing. The cafe's early closure at 2 PM caught us off guard, so plan your meals accordingly!

Perfect for Couples!
Our two-night stay surpassed expectations! The staff quickly resolved a minor AC issue, and the room was immaculately cleaned. Enjoyed breakfast at the wonderful on-site café, which had delicious options. Tip, Don't miss the charming aviary while walking around the beautiful neighborhood!

We had a great stay in a cozy one-bedroom apartment with a lovely balcony overlooking the pool, and it was a treat to enjoy fruit and cookies in our room. The pool and jacuzzi were just what we needed for some relaxation after a long day. One minor bummer was the laundry facilities were a bit limited, but overall, it was a solid choice for our trip! 🌴

I had a fantastic stay at Best Western Plus Santa Barbara! My room was spacious and nicely furnished, with a cozy seating area that made it perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The complimentary water bottles were a thoughtful touch, especially in the heat. The staff were incredibly friendly and always ready to help, making me feel right at home. The location was slightly outside the hustle and bustle, but it was an easy and enjoyable walk into town, surrounded by lovely shops and restaurants.
Parking can be a bit tight.

Spacious two-bedroom townhouse offered a great kitchen area, making coffee and breakfast enjoyable for our family. The staff was friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The pool area provided a relaxing space after a day of sightseeing. A lovely touch was the iced oat lattes at the café, along with free fruit in the lobby. However, the lack of an on-site restaurant limited dining choices.

Friendly staff and a cozy vibe!
I had a nice stay here! The staff were super helpful, especially Ramon who answered all my Qs when I booked. The grounds are lovely and well-kept, and I loved chillin' by the pool. The only bummer was not having a microwave in the room. That made it tough for my special diet.
