"The cabin was very nice. Unfortunately there wasn’t much for me and my family kids to do. They mentioned in the website that there were fun activities such as a pool, the pool was not working, it was very hot and the pool would have made it more enjoyable . Also, they mentioned there was basketball courts they were very old and no balls for us to use . Also it said there was miniature golf we did not see any clubs to be used. The beautiful scenery was a plus. We didn’t see a petting zoo. We...

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria South

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria South

8/10 Good
"We had a comfortable stay at this value hotel. If you want somewhere just to sleep while not blowing your vacation budget, this is the place for you. The staff was friendly and check in process was smooth. The rooms are basic and there is no soap or shampoo provided but the room was clean and bed was decently comfortable. The ac worked great and the pool area looked very nice. There’s a grocery store, Starbucks and “99” cent store down the street."

"This hotel charges $20 per day for parking and $35 per day resort fee. This adds a lot to your bill especially when you are not using the amenities included in the resort fee. A group of 4 of us went to the bar which doesn't open to 3 pm. We waited until it opened and the staff was not friendly nor provided much service. Exterior of the hotel looks dated."
