We were a bit disappointed. We loved the room and the courtyard amenities, but the breakfast was lackluster, and it was hard to get the room serviced. On our last night—we were in town for a family graduation— we decided to grill and enjoy the hot tub. The grilling station is great, but the hot tub was monopolized for three hours by a group of young people. After two hours I went to request help from the front desk. I was told they would take care if it but they did not. That really felt unfair. We were also paying the resort fee but our family did not get to use the hot tub. Overall a good place to stay especially if you need a kitchen. Shout out to Tommy at the front desk.

From first glance room is clean, but once you begin to feel the room and you'll notice it need better housekeeping. First, do not walk on bare feet in room or your feet will get dirty. They don't deep clean the floor, other than once in a while simple vacuum. The sofa feel sticky and dirty, not just old looking. If the hotel owner wants to keep the place in good condition he should train staffs to pay more attention to cleaning details. Clean even the dust accumulated on the desk and standing lamps. Vacuum floor under the bed and every corner as well.

Good breakfast; large rooms.

Very bad room location; no view with limited privacy. This was the darkest room I have ever seen in a hotel. It seemed like a poor room reserved for Expedia customers.
The low toilets are uncomfortable for adults and are outrageously bad for the elderly.

The room was clean and so was the kitchen. We took advantage of the BBQ and the pool area. Everything was great.
At night the plane noise was a little loud for us so we turned the AC/Furnace fan onto Low instead of Auto and the steady hum drowned out and background noise.
Our stay was so nice. Can’t wait to go back.

Great hotel. We spend a lot of time in Goleta and this is now my favorite go to property. Already booked for next stay. I stayed in a one bedroom suite and a great room if you have someone who snores. They slept on pull out couch. Windows are sound proof. Quiet location. Walking distance to Deans coffee and breakfast at hotel was great. Two Peloton bikes to use in gym. I don’t know why we had to pay for parking? 15$ a night and I felt like it was just a fee to charge you as the was no shortage of parking. They asked if I needed a parking pass, so assuming it was an up charge. Ask when checking in.

It was a lovely structure and clean. We requested early check-in.The staff said they would call when the room was ready, which they did. We said we would be there in 45 minutes. On arriving in less than 45 minutes we found our room had been given to some other party. We had been on a run and needed a shower. It was a great inconvenience. We were visiting family to watch the Super Bowl and had to go to their house unshowered.

Nice hotel

Nice hotel, but would be better if parking can be free. Especially all surrounding hotels don't charge this extra. Coffee need to be better.

I felt safe and comfortable while traveling alone. The property was very clean. The courtyard was beautiful and relaxing! I loved the fire places and bbq area. I will definitely choose this property while in the Santa Barbara area again.

Beware.

Booked 2 beds and a pullout and what the third party reserved was 1 bed and a pullout. The property was completely sold out, so they were unable to move us to a different room. The hotels.com customer service offered to send my group of friends to a 1 star motel to accommodate us which is not even comparable to what we booked. Ruined our entire trip!

Good hotel

This place is better than most surrounding hotels. The only downside is the carpet too dirty and can't walk on with bear feet. Need to provide instruction on wifi access. The shower handle was not good. It is hard to turn on because no clear indicator of where to turn the handle and you need to turn off extremely hard else the water will keep dripping and make dripping sound. Last is a $15 per day parking fee is expensive for a location not really part of downtown or anything...

The rooms were beautiful, clean, and very roomy. The entire staff was absolutely lovely. They were more than accommodating to my family and I during a very difficult time. Easy access to whatever you need. Couldn't reccomend them more, they were amazing.

Its all about the details. MARRIOTT can do better

Houskeeping was hit or miss and most days I had to call the desk for enough towels (four for four.....not too tough) for our party of four. Also needed coffee, lotion, always something.

I paid $1,200 for two nights and expected much better:

1) The sofa bed smelled like cat urine (or human urine maybe) and we had to ask for it to be changed, after using it for the first night (because we checked in very late). Disgusting!

2) During the first day, I left a couple of footprints from my dirty shoes in the bathroom. Room service came after that but didn't mop the bathroom floor, they only changed the towels! Seriously? The front desk told me I have to state I want a daily \"full clean\" instead of a \"refresh clean\". This is dishonesty at it's finest - how am I supposed to know this option exists if nobody explained this option to me at time of check-in?

I can handle most things, but not dishonesty. Residence Inn, do better.

Quiet and comfortable

Quiet, despite Santa Barbara Airport being across the street. Rooms are comfortable and maintained well. The cost of pet stays are more than other hotels I’ve stayed. Breakfasts are fairly good.

Not much around the hotel and nothing within walking distance for dining or shopping. No restaurant in the hotel. The breakfast was OK - I loved the blueberry muffins and the oatmeal was good. I never had the eggs or meat, but my friend did. The croissant egg and ham sandwich was awful. We had to wait almost 2 hrs after check-in to get into our room. There was no Do Not Disturb sign to put on the door but I did respond that we didn’t want housekeeping to come to our room. We were very surprised the first morning when we returned to our room after breakfast and a housekeeper was in our room where I had left my purse and everything out in the open. Nothing was taken but we felt violated. The red light blinked on the phones for over 24 hours even after we called about it 3 times. It was supposed to be a message to inform us that they were going to clean the carpet. The rooms were clean and the kitchen supplies were good. We had a 2 bedroom 2 bath suite with kitchen for $499 a night for 3 days. Glad that Expedia paid for the room because of the cancellation of the timeshare unit we had reservations for, because I would never have paid $500 a night for this hotel. The pool area and outdoor games were nice but the location and lack of a restaurant made this a 3 star hotel for me. Having to wait until almost 6pm to check in was also not appreciated.

Room service? Where was it?

We stayed here for the kitchen, suite and two bedrooms for our family. We enjoyed our stay overall but for what we paid, I was EXTREMELY disappointed that room service did not clean our room. If we didn’t want room service we would have followed the hotel instructions and left the sign out on our door. We purposefully did not put our aign out so that our room wouls be cleaned and serviced while we were out for the day but nope our room did not get cleaned. Frustrated with this because when we travel, as a mom, this is something I really look forward to. When I called the front desk they told me house keeping had left for the day and they could try and figure something out if we left the room for a while. This did not work for our family. The ping pong table was also warped and paddles were broken. Other than that we did enjoy our stay!

NEW YEARS WEEKEND A BUST

Set out sign for house keeping to come and they never did! Dishwasher upper rack broken and they didn’t leave soap. Air system was an issue if you turned it off it was so hot if you turned on air it would get cold! People above us were so noisy! It was a total bummer as it was New Year’s eve weekend and from the air system I got so sick I had to cancel our NYE dinner and our anniversary plans! I booked another night hoping I would feel better! I am in bed and my husband is out by himself! Awful way to start the New Year! Haven’t talked to the manager yet as I am hacking up a lung!
