• The driveway was paved.
• The rooms were dirty, odorous, and not well appointed. Almost zero counter space in the Loo.

“I was totally disappointed with this hotel. The price charged was outrageous for the quality of the accommodations. Rooms were not well kept, they were sparsely furnished, and the housekeeping staff camped outside our room early in the morning loading up their carts and having some loud conversation. The window shades were filthy and rather shabby. They didn't work very well at all. We did get moved to another room the second night, but there was a faint odor of sewage that came up through the vanity sink every time you ran water down the sink. Pretty gross when you're brushing your teeth. I'm still suffering the wrath of my family for having them stay in this dump.”

• The continental breakfast was very good. The staff was friendly.
• The bathroom toilet and shower didn't work well, and there was a cleaning odor upon arrival.

“Friendly staff, great continental breakfast. The hotel was farther from the activities on State Street than we wanted, but overall was nice. The price was acceptable, but I felt a bit overpriced.”

• The pool area is very nice.
• Dirty, cobwebs, broken blinds, burnt bulb, shabby, uncomfortable, "deluxe" room is just a 2nd bedroom, cubicle separate from the main bed cubicle.

“Don't get looped into this hotel unless you are solo and just need to flop for the night. Don't upgrade to the "deluxe" room- what a joke- unless you have a kid or 2, you don't want to be bothered by (they won't care that it is a cubicle, only that it has a small TV for them.). My blinds were broken and I could not shut them- it took an hour for maintenance to come- good thing I'm not shy!”

• Quiet; easy freeway access.
• I didn't think it was a great value. The hotel is "dated."

“I was seeking a 1 night stay in a hotel convenient to UCSB. This hotel met that expectation. I can't remember if it was a 2 or 3 star rated establishment, but which ever, it was a bit dated. Clean but old. I paid $119.00 for a Friday night stay in September. The price should have been $99.00. Plastic glasses only, plastic utensils for breakfast, yuck!!”

• Clean, convenient location.
• Noisy AC, restaurant was a noisy bar with bar-type food.

“I would recommend it for convenience and price only. The "restaurant" was a joke unless you love noisy bars which offer hamburgers, French fries, etc. as their cuisine. The breakfast wasn't bad. AC was so noisy we had to shut it off and the fan also made strange noises and we were afraid to use it so we suffered from heat. I'd never stay there again or allow my daughter to stay there.”

• Very convenient to where we had to be.
• Our particular room was actually small for the price we paid.

“Manager Mandy let us use banquet room for our team dinner (soccer tourney) and everyone had a great time well appreciated.”
