Orange Tree Inn
Room very clean , front desk manager was so accommodating very helpful of what to do in town where to eat Ect. Only 1 thing is that a fluffy pillow or maybe 2 pillows would have been great but I also didn’t ask for an extra pillow. Location to State Street shops and restaurants was excellent.

Simpson House Inn
Such a cute spot, staff was friendly and helpful. They have a pretty good happy hour wine and snacks. Breakfast looks really good but we got up too early to make it each morning since it's served at 8am. About 1.5 miles from downtown. We would definitely stay here again.

Hyatt Place Santa Barbara
The place was nice and clean, and the staff were great. But the mattress has to be replaced, at least in my room 231. The old spring mattress was unevenly sagging. Also, one of the curtains could not be opened properly.
