Although, it is still actively being remodeled, the floor where we stayed at is gorgeous and clean. It has been beautifully remodeled. We were not bothered by the construction noise nor dust. The service is excellent.

10/10

The hotel is under construction but the rooms have been newly updated and are bright, clean and comfortable. The location is great and the little touches like a birthday wine surprise and complimentary reusable water bottles really made the stay special! The best part is we could bring our dog and they provided complimentary beds and bowls and treats. No pet fee also!

I prefer this location for business meetings when I'm in Santa Barbara. It is upscaled, clean, and has friendly staff. It is priced a little higher than preferred but within walking distance of my meeting.
