The cottage itself was lovely but the vehicle noise from the highway 192 and behind the house was unexpected and disappointing. I could not enjoy the patio...

We can't speak highly enough of the Bungalow. Roomy, newly remodeled and all the amenities you would ever need. Best part is you can walk to the upper Montecito Village for breakfast, coffee and gourmet goodies. All around great place to stay.
