not the nicest
it's mostly a big parking lot. the rooms are cold and dark and damp and have no windows. the floor is bare stone tile that is freezing. the sheets don't fit the bed. the blankets are not clean.the patio is dark and enclosed with a view of an apartment complex. and it's still expensive.

No refrigerator in the room. I can understand no microwave, which it didn't have either, but usually I expect a small fridge to store a bottled water to keep cold. Other than that, the room was clean and the bed was comfy.

Not for the price!
This room would have been ok for $79/night. Maybe in today’s economy, up to $129. However, I paid over $600 for 2 nights and felt like it was highway robbery. There were ants in the bathroom and main room. The window to the front patio didn’t seem to lock. There was a king bed and small office chair by the vanity area, but no mini fridge or microwave. There was supposed to be a hairdryer in the bathroom, but only a steel plate was mounted on the wall.
The receptionist was nice, but I wouldn’t recommend this “inn” to anyone unless you’re looking for a cheap motel, and $300+ per night is anything but cheap. Yes, it was move-in weekend at UCSB (which is why I was there) but there should be some type of law against the price hike.

I will never stay here again
The floor was not clean. The shower curtain was about 12 inches too long & got soaked with my shower. The toilet seat wasn’t centered on the toilet. The sheets on the bed were not smooth, but had little bumpy balls of worn fabric all over them.

We are fine with “ordinary” or “average” hotels, preferring to spend our money on restaurants and outings when on vacation. This did not live up to average. Pretty much everything in the room - bed, pillows, sheets, floors, curtains, lamps, lack of a hair dryer, poor quality of soap and shampoo - said the hotel is doing everything can as cheaply as possible. Please step it up a notch or two.

It was fine
It was fine. The room smelled a little musty but it was clean. We did try to call the room service for fresh towels but no answer.
Check in went well.
