Lovely b&b, but on a busy road and if you don't have a back room it's loud. No TV's. Pillows are old and beds need replacing. overall, cute, but not worth the money

Stayed only one night. Experience was positive. Staff very helpful. Came just in time for the happy hour. Cheeses, some crackers, fruit and wine. Breakfast satisfactory to start the day. A very good bakery in the front. Close to the idyllic los olivos downtown. Hiking trails. Santa Barbara over the mountain route 154 30 minutes. Definitely can recommend.

The staff needs proper training in hospitality. Every little question was asked was responded to as if it was a chore. Guests are paying a lot to be there and they should be treated as if they are guests, not people walking in off the street.

Louise

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We were assigned a second floor room which was only accessible by stairs. We were offered a ground floor room that turned out to be disabled accessible which we did not need. The water pressure in the shower was terrible, the bed was not at all comfortable, and no tv, phone or alternatives. Pedestal sink offered no place to put any toiletries. We were celebrating a special occasion and were so disappointed we left after one night. The online pictures of the rooms were lovely, but not our room.

Cute, quaint Inn
Very nice inn; however, there is no elevator & most of the rooms are upstairs. The rooms are air conditioned, but the rest of the inn just has box fans around. Also, no refrigerator, microwave, or television in the rooms. The room we had was decorated really nice. The inn is decorated nicely, also. Really beautiful part of town, nestled in a quiet neighborhood.
