Goleta Spa Hotel

"It was fine for a place to sleep in Santa Barbara for the price. Room was dim with poor lighting (not really possible to read unless you sit at the desk). No usb charging ports, which seems rather outdated. The 'breakfast' was bananas, cold cereal, cheap bagels, and packaged oatmeal (without water hot enough to turn it into oatmeal, lol), so I would argue that's not worth advertising that you provide breakfast (we skipped it). Enough eating options nearby to make due, but you have to drive to the real 'downtown' restaurants and bars. It was clean, though, and we mostly just needed to sleep and shower; if that's all you need, it will work nicely."

"Enjoyed the beach and ocean view! Incredible view with amazing atmosphere. We had our adult children and we all enjoyed the experience. Clean and friendly staff, specially,Kathleen went out of her way to make us feel right at home! "

"Big nice room, staff was great "

"The property was ok, but across the street from a park where transients sleep. The bed was very hard , not comfortable ant all, and we were initially placed in a room next to a door that opened and closed very heavily throughout the night. We requested a new room for the second night, it was a huge improvement. No noise at all or doors slamming. The staff was very understanding and accommodating. The continental breakfast was nice and coffee machine was fantastic! It made lattes, cappuccino, espresso, with a frother. A very nice treat! "

"no beach chairs or umbrellas "

"Great location. Friendly staff. Nice room, but it felt 'cold' and sterile with the laminate flooring. If you just need an overnight room this is your property. If looking for a cozier room - may want to find another. Breakfast was so-so, wasn't a 'fan' of the offerings - mostly breads, cereal, and fake eggs. Nice outdoor offerings with seating and 2 fire pits. Didn't get to partake of the wine tastings as we were there on the wrong days for the offering. "

"Neighbor was loud and drunk till 3:30am"

"Clean, nicely updated. "

"The pool area and breakfast area were fine. The issue was getting are reservation changed without our knowledge. Upon arriving we were told we were "upgraded" to a King suite. What a joke! The room was large and awkward. The bed was a full size murphy bed. It was not even a queen size. We booked and paid for a room with 2 queens. It is too bad. The hotel seemed nice and clean but the "downgrade" ruined it. We travel to UCSB a couple times a month and were hoping to find a place to stay regularly. Unfortunately it will not be at the Best Western."
