The perfect stay

Staff were so friendly and accommodating. My daughter and I took the train into Santa Barbara at 10am and even though check-in wasn’t until 3pm we were able to leave our bags and utilize the free bike rentals to explore around State Street and Stearns Wharf until our room was ready. Then we were greeted with fresh baked chocolate chip cookies at check-in. The room was nice! It was the perfect stay!
