Disliked: Amenities
Property is dated, bed was hard to sleep in, it’s close to everything and we absolutely love the dining area restaurant! They have great service and food is great.
We were in town for one night for a concert at the SB Bowl. This was the perfect place for us to stay! Not too far from there or the beach, but not too close either. The room was was better than I expected for the relatively low price. Comfortable bed, great water pressure in the shower, and a balcony overlooking the beautiful courtyard which was a great place for breakfast (room service from the onsite restaurant) too! Will definitely stay there again.
We love to stay at the Lemon tree! The outside area is amazing and the pool was so clean! The rooms can use a little upgrading but over all we love it there! The staff was very friendly and accommodating!
Spaceous room, room still have carpets thus have a hint smell of the old room. However, it is cleaned and convenient. Nice balcony to seat outside. 3 mins drive to Mission Santa Barbara.
Restaurant is right down stair and serving good food.
A few homeless wonder around, they are nice not bothering anyone at all, but we saw this issue every where
The room was exceptionally comfortable, unfortunately the night I stayed they had an outage with 'Pluto' TV which is their only source for cable news programming, but other than that everything was exceptional.
They had roaches, no microwave in the room or the diningroom. The pool area was unkept the pillows on the lounge chairs were dirty. This place needs a total cleanup and redo!!!! It's disgusting. My last memory of this place was so nice. But now, it's horrible!!!!!
