Basic but clean, simple budget motel style property right across street from beach by a block. If you don’t plan in staying in your room and just need a basic clean room to crash this place works great.

This is a quaint “throwback” motel which is cute and close to a lovely walk around the beach and has access to street parking. It is also close to many good restaurants. I would stay here again.

This property is a gem considering its proximity to the beach. It is not fancy or luxurious but very charming. The staff were welcoming and friendly. The room was spotless and very spacious. Bed was extremely comfortable. Great coffee in the lobby for guests from a local coffee shop. If you’re looking for location this is fabulous for the price. Parking is available if you want it. We will now use this as our go to when visiting our daughter in Santa Barbara.

It was an older Motel that had seen better days. It was clean but several lights did not work and the shower curtain had ripped holes and the shower had small amounts of black mold. When someone in the next room took a shower at 3AM it sounded like an 18 wheeler coming through the room.
