+Room was adequately spacious with good lighting, decent bathroom.
−Soap dispensers in the shower didn't work. Check-in was announced to be from 3 pm. When I showed up at 2:40, I thought maybe they could check me in, but they sent me away, telling me that the previous day there had been a power failure, and they were still going over all the rooms. There was also no one at the desk early in the morning for check-out.

“Great location at an older property”
+Convenient location right downtown, easy to walk everywhere, easy street parking. Comfy bed.
−Our room does not look like the renovated room in the picture. Our room was carpeted, dark, old furnishings, bathroom paint was peeling. Rooms have key locks. Property is lower cost option versus other Santa Barbara properties, but it’s really well past needed refresh, paint, room upgrades.

“Bed was comfortable....that's all I got.”
+Bed was very comfortable. Seat at the desk was low and incredibly uncomfortable. I put a pillow from the bed on it, and it helped. I needed to get work done, and without the pillow, impossible.
−The leaf-blowing machine running massively loudly for an hour or so in the parking lot. The person who checked me in was efficient but not particularly warm. It was very warm in the room the first day but too noisy to leave the door open. There are no phones in the rooms so when i did not understand how to turn the A/C on and had to take my 70-year-old knees back down the stairs again to ask, she said it was on the paper she gave me. I told her I had read the sheet, and the A/C was not working. She sighed and told me there was a switch. Ultimately, we got the A/C on, but she made me feel stupid with her demeanor rather than acknowledging that it might have been the way the instructions were written. Ultimately, "the customer is always right" but not there.

−Very dated, shower didn’t work properly, refrigerator didn’t work, bugs, old industrial carpeting. Noisy all morning. Pricey for what it is. Even at a discount at 180
