"Overall, a really nice stay! The service was great and the quality of the amenities very good, e.g. continental breakfast much better than most places I’ve been to in the last few years.Very comfortable except for the pillows, which were too big and a bit hard and lumpy. In addition, it was easy to hear noises from adjoining rooms. But I haven’t stayed in a motel for many years, so may have had unrealistic expectations :-)."

"Excellent location right across the street from the beach and very close to downtown Santa Barbara. Our room was cute, clean, and just what you’d need for an overnight stay. The parking is included, so no surprise insane parking fees or resort fees. It was so quiet, too. Honestly had a great stay and would 100% stay here again! Only downside is the office is not 24 hours, so there is an emergency number to call if you lose a key (we did not). Also, there was supposed to be coffee from 8-10am in...

"Palihouse Santa Barbara is an interesting and unique lodging experience. Very convenient to State Street within easy walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The property is compact, but beautiful and well maintained. The rooms are large and immaculately clean. The decor is quirky, which I think people would either love or find a bit underwhelming. We loved the full sized stocked fridge, fireplace, and large glass doors opening to the balcony. We wished there was more comfortable seating on...

"We stayed in a room with 2 queen beds. It was small, basic, but clean. There’s a fridge, no microwave. Bathroom was also small & a little cramped, but again clean. I think the staff and service was the reason for the higher rating. They were all friendly and quick with their response time, especially the ladies serving breakfast. Location of this place is another reason for the higher rating. Very walkable to the beach area! Might need to drive if heading into downtown. Overall, for the price we...
