"Night time staff was surly, and kept his earbuds in during our entire check-in interaction. Buffett breakfast was meh. Room and bathroom were very clean. Double beds means double sized beds, not two queens!"

"It’s not as nice as it looks. We had a terrible ant problem in our room and the a/c didn’t work properly. The wine and cheese was ok, as was the breakfast, but nothing as good as it seems from the advertising."

10/10 Excellent
"I got great service since first showing up. The valet was very friendly and helpful. When going to the front desk, they gave my wife and I a free room upgrade for free. They ask gave great service and Kathleen took care of the 3rd party issues that I got the hotel from. They have a great and comfortable place. My wife loved the bed and the view from the balcony. It was also nice that the valet rented out the bikes for free. I highly recommend this hotel."

10/10 Excellent
"The shower was very difficult to turn on, the tub could use a good clean. Would have loved a coffee pot/coffee & water cups in the room. We were thankful for the extra fan brought to us as we weren’t expecting such hot weather in California!"

Brisas del Mar, Inn at the Beach

10/10 Excellent
"Can't say enough good things about this hotel! Nice spacious rooms, clean, great pool area with plenty of loungers, and lots of other outdoor places to sit and enjoy a drink. The amount of amenities (breakfast, wine/cheese happy hour, bikes, elec charging and more) makes this a great value. They even have a self-serve very inexpensive laundry room at their sister property next door. Thanks for a great stay in Santa Barbara!"
