Nice quiet location. Very close to the beach to walk the paths starting at East Beach all the way to State St or the Warf if (about 20-30 mint walk). Dog friendly, so it was great for my family. We had the room with a full kitchen, and we were a short walking distance from the small grocery which was very convenient for thing we forgot. Small but nice warm pool.

The property was in excellent condition. I was pleased that I received daily housekeeping services, as that is not always provided in this day and age, even at more expensive hotels. Pacific Crest will be at the top of my list for future visits to Santa Barbara.

The beds were uncomfortable, only two sets of towels for 4 people, the bathroom window was cracked, a wax of hair was on the bathroom floor when we got there, and the chairs looked dirty. this place is in a safe area but this hotel is just a barely renovated old motel advertised as an upscale type hotel. We could hear every noise possible through the walls.

We had Room 9, right next to the ice machine /restrooms. The room itself was dark and not like the prior room I stayed in (13), which was in a corner and quieter. Other hotel guests get ice at all hours of the day and night and they slam the door. One night, we had to call the after hours number since a group was loud and belligerent until nearly midnight. The after hours answering service was useless-said that they could not get a hold of the onsite person. So we just had to deal with the noise. Second night a wedding party stayed here and I'm pretty sure their regular house is a barn in the sticks bc these people were total loud trash. Asked the front if they could do something about the ice machine room visitors and they said they'll lock the door at night-but this was useless bc you just use your room key to open it. They also told me they had other complaints about the noise. Ummmmm, maybe solve the problem somehow?! The girls that work in the office have zero hospitality industry experience, and I'm sure they're poorly paid for their lack of experience. This visit truly felt low class and uncomfortable. Won't stay here again.

To stay for one or two night is ok. but we stayed a week and therfore its just not made. the room was kind of big with a kitchen and a very small bathroom. but it was all cheap renovated. Kitchen handle fell off, water from somewhere on the floor, curtain rod crooked, toilet lid was just overpainted. we were 4 and there were just two chairs in the kitchen to eat. the cleaninglady was very very nice and it was clean. soo it was nothing to feel comfortable at. we tried to cancel 3 of 7 nights but they wouldnt let us even there were issues… its too expensive for what you get.

Untimely construction

We’re it not for the construction and remodeling going on next to our room I would rate it 5 stars! The location only a couple of blocks from the beach and within walking distance to The Funk Zone was excellent. I would definitely come back one construction is over with.
