"A wonderful little gem in the heart of downtown Santa Barbara. Steps from the beach, yet in a quiet and safe neighborhood. My room was beyond comfortable, and the staff was courteous and kind. Franciscan Inn offers a breakfast, 24-hour, coffee, and snacks! This will be my new go to for my annual visits to beautiful Santa Barbara."
"It is very nice - but does have the old motel smell. The renovations are beautiful but feel like “lipstick on a pig.” I would stay again - but not as nice as I expected. Great location."
"Easy to find and could walk to several places to eat. Room clean bed very comfortable. The staff was very nice and even got us checked in early! So accommodating. Happy hour was a treat!"
"Great location and clean room. Good waffles for breakfast. We didn’t want a big breakfast; choices were a bit limited if you did want anything bigger."
