Top Westside Hotel Reviews

Hotel Californian

8/10 Good

"check in was chaotic . She gave us a quick overview of the property, which is more of a compound and not super easy to figure out, but failed to provide the map. The biggest issues was the room wasn't ready till well after 4:00. They were supposed to update us, with a call and they didn't. We were left waiting in reception for a half hour and kept having to wait in line for reception."

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria North

10/10 Excellent

"The motel was very reasonable. Staff was very nice. It wasn’t a fancy place, but it was still clean. If you just need a place to stay, and not worried about how fancy it’s not, then this is a good place for that if you don’t wanna spend a lot of money."

Sandpiper Lodge

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was a huge let down. Coffee was good. And there were previously frozen croissants pre-sliced and a conveyor toaster for them. With a little butter and a packet of jam which were fine. But that’s about it. For the price and the advertising I surely expected a bit more of a spread for the Continental Breakfast. You should have seen the faces of surprised dismay on the many tourists who came in after me. They also expected something more."
