Great location on Lillie Ave within walking distance to breakfast and lunch eateries. Great trendy shopping and fabulous bookstore all nearby. Be aware the hotel is near the freeway and rail tracks, as is all of Summerland, so it can be noisy if you leave the window open.

The property was very nice and the staff that we met were very polite and friendly. We enjoyed our daily breakfast made to order but a small suggestion it would have been great to have had different option of sausage, bacon, ham each day with my omelet but overall, it was a nice addition to the start of our day. We were able enjoy the little wine and cheese tray that they put out, and we arrived back after our day out to enjoy a sweet treat. A nice little touch. I did enjoy my room, and the decor was warm and inviting. We were not able to get a massage at the Inn, but they recommended a Masseuse on State Street which was great! I would recommend the Inn to anyone wanting to stay in a quaint and warm Bed and Breakfast.

Our second stay at this fabulous property. A lovely upscale place just off the 101, perfect when traveling but would love to spend a little time there. Close to Santa Barbara and Ventura with a lovely little town down the street with shops, coffee and a great restaurant. A must stay!

Nora assisted me by phone and greeted me upon arrival - introducing herself, which was most welcoming! I arrived early and she still quickly showed me to my beautiful room overlooking the ocean. I love it! I’d seen this room on the website and admired it even then. Very happily installed here. Will visit again.

We had a wonderful stay here. The room was cute and clean and more than anything the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. We loved waking up in the morning and seeing the dolphins playing in the water. Close proximity to Montecito and Santa Barara was also a huge plus for us. Highly recommend.

Great location within walking distance to some good food and stores. Only problem was when someone decided to take a bath at midnight. Very loud plumbing. Definitely it drowned out the freeway noise.

It’s right by the freeway and loud. Early check in and check out is $25 per hour extra. Even though their website says breakfast is included, it’s not. They did not even want to give us the free coffee in the lobby saying we booked through a third party. We booked through Expedia and it was not cheap at all. For $350 a night, this was not what I expected. Hotel is clean and the room was nice. And the area is also nice.

I was very impressed by the friendly service, cleanliness and overall vibe of the place. I had only one issue and it was the sound of the traffic. Unfortunately, the cars went by all night and it was during the week. If your not looking for quiet then it is a lovely little gem.

Stayed here years ago, just didn't seem the same. Breakfast wasn't offered daily, and wasn't what we remembered from previous visits. A touch of professionalism was lacking in staffs appearance. We probably won't stay again but we wish them the best

Excellent customer service, easy check-in/out, and great location. Ask for a room away from the street for less noise. Fine overall, but as is typical in the area, quite expensive for a somewhat standard room lacking in luxury.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely little inn. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the room was full of thoughtful touches—including a sound machine, which we set to ocean waves. It completely drowned out any highway noise, making for a peaceful night’s sleep. We’ll absolutely be back!
