May 2025
Room was well furnished, and they upgraded us to a two bedroom suite, although we really didn't need or use the second bedroom. Room was clean and the shower was fine. The included breakfast was not lavish, with no hot food except toast, but the inclusion of croissants was a nice touch. The central location on State Street put it close to many services, ie grocery stores, a mall, bakeries, etc.
The bed was not terribly comfortable. It seemed to be an air mattress, but was quite hard. Furnishings were rather old and in need of some upgrades. The A/C unit was loud, making it difficult to sleep.

Exceptionally clean room, great shower with a window through which one views blue skies and lush treetops. Able to park close to my room. Mini fridge, microwave, hair dryer, iron/ironing board, good desk and small table/chairs, big TV with premium channels. Firm but comfortable bed, lots of pillows. Great staff, friendly and professional. Very quiet at night, slept well.
No electrical outlets by the bedside, although lamps on both end tables provided adequate light for reading. Continental breakfast was adequate, fresh fruit, yogurt, Danish, microwaveable oatmeal, cold cereal. Like the room, the brightly lit breakfast room was immaculately clean.

Budget friendly option for your Santa Barbara stay. Clean rooms. Beds were a bit hard for my liking but still slept great. Rooms were a bit dated but most importantly clean. Shower had good temperature and pressure. Very sparse continental breakfast. Based on other budget friendly options in the area, the Sandpiper fit the bill for our purposes and looked better maintained than others in the area. Denny’s across the street came in handy for breakfast. 10 minute drive to Stearns Wharf, the beach and downtown. Great location to visit all the sites (Courthouse, SB Mission, Orchid Estate etc) - centrally located on State Street. 15 minutes from the airport. Good value based on other rates in the area.

The room and facilities were exceptionally clean. The front desk staff are super efficient and helpful. The breakfast was fine and the breakfast room was super clean and kept well maintained. The pool and hot tub area are smallish but clean. We had a very nice stay and this was our second time. A very good deal, and a great location.
The rooms are slightly dated, but well-maintained and very clean.

Breakfast was decent, mostly packaged items and some fruit. The double room was perfect for me, my friend, and my 2 teens. It was clean. I liked the location of the property.
I did not like that the hotel advertised "2 queen beds and a king bed" but the room was fitted with "2 double beds and a king bed". I felt the hotel was overpriced at over $600 for one night. This is likely a characteristic of the area and season since many hotels were overpriced based on my research.

I liked that it was close to where we needed to be for a friends wedding. The room was a decent size and the bed was comfortable. The pillows were a little to flat for me. And i felt like we needed more towels in the room. The room was a little outdated, i think it could use some new modern look. The door didn’t feel safe & secure, it looked as if it had been forced in before. Also noticed there was a lot of dust behind the nightstand and on the bed frame against the wall. But i still got a good nights sleep & the curtains did really help clocking out the light. We got to use the pool and the jacuzzi on site and they were both great! And i did also like that there was towels to use there in the pool area instead of the ones from our room. The free continental breakfast was a nice add on. But the coffee tasted awful unfortunately. Overall a decent stay for anyone looking for something not too expensive,
The coffee like i said was very gross and that was surprising, and I didn’t feel so safe in the hotel due to the door having a gap in the doorway.

Very nice staff. Great location. Overall quiet. Simple but sufficient breakfast. Big room. TV OK. Clean. Easy safe parking. Plenty of nearby restaurants within walking distance. I would return.
My only small issue was quickly resolved. I had requested a quiet room at the back far from the highway. However, the room they initially gave me was next to a temporary construction zone. Fortunately they changed it for me. Thanks.

We were surprised to get such a big room, suite style with two beds, bigger than what we booked. We enjoyed the spa. Also, great to just go get breakfast, even though it was not the healthiest options. Very close to Whole Foods where we got our dinner.
It was quite expensive - $220 for two people. But we could not find a cheaper place.

An economically priced place to stay. Pleasant environment, lovely plants,fresh paint, elevator to second floor. Very clean rooms, comfortable bed, nice shower. Attentive staff. Nearby walkable restaurants.
This isn’t really a “dislike” but I couldn’t find USB ports for charging. I did have a backup wall plug adapter in the car so everything was fine.

Basic hotel but comfortable and clean. We had a 2 bedroom that was perfect for our group. The pool and jacuzzi were a nice plus! Staff were friendly and helpful!!
We paid for a room that included breakfast which I would not recommend. It was very limited so we decided to go to another place nearby.
