Convenient location as it’s across the road from a grocery store but can get loud at night with the cars driving by. 10 min drive away from the Santa Barbara city centre. Staff are friendly. Room was clean with a microwave, freezer and fridge. The computer in the reception for guest use is super helpful and there are hot drinks there. Loved the vibe of the outdoor area which has lot of seating. Would recommend if you’re stopping by Santa Barbara

The Presidio

Santa Barbara

10/10 Excellent

We stayed overnight here while we were travelling up the coast to SF. The staff were extremely helpful, the office manager even moved their car to enable me to get a park (as I was in a Ram) as there was only a couple of parks left and was too tight a squeeze for it. The room was great, the place quiet. The place had bikes for use so we were able to take a ride on the day we were leaving. We could happily return again.
