Room was small and the bathroom was probably one of the smallest bathrooms I have ever seen. Bedding was comfortable. The room had a slight "old" smell. Staff at check in was very friendly and helpful. The valet staff was all very helpful also.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Montecito Inn in the Tower Suite. The room was unique and charming, with two levels that made it feel more like a little apartment than a standard hotel room. The bedroom and bathroom are on different levels, so you do have to go up and down stairs, but if that is not an issue for you, it actually adds to the character and fun of the space. The location was great, the accommodations were comfortable, and we would happily stay there again.
