Better monitoring of children running back and forth in the halls at night would be a suggestion. I called the front desk but they weren’t successful at quieting the family. Thank God for earplugs!

I would stay at this hotel every time I am visiting Santa Barbara and Carpinteria. The location is great - minutes away from everything Carpinteria has to offer and a short drive from Santa Barbara. The breakfast buffet is plentiful and varied. The gym has a good selection of equipment. The rooms were large (our double queen room even had a sitting area with a. Small couch and coffee table) and clean and the beds were comfortable. I also really appreciated the coffee maker, microwave, and mini fridge (with a small freezer!) in the room. The fact that the room had a bathtub was also very welcome so my toddler could take a bath during our trip. 5 stars!
