Top Foothill Hotel Reviews

Avania Inn of Santa Barbara

2/10 Terrible

"We stayed here and there was blood , eye liner , and hair on the sheets. As well the room smelled pretty bad like rotten eggs. Also there was no conditioner amongst other things. Not including the homeless people outside your balcony fighting and acting like zombies at 3:00 am. We reached out to " Jacob " One of the managers and all that was done was he gave us a $40 off refund. Not worth this stay at all when you are spending over $200 for a one night stay. Not safe for children and just not a great experience."

Lavender Inn by the Sea

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and the staff very friendly, but we did find a few slight issues, the breakfast room had two tables, unfortunately when we arrived it was cold so eating outside was not an option, or you had to take your breakfast back to the room. The rooms whilst clean had peeling paint on the cupboard, chipped tiles in the bathroom and a chipped table. The room doors where heavy which resulted in doors slamming shut late into the night. The hotel is on a busy road where traffic can be heard. It’s in a great location, close to the marina and beach, State Street is a short walk away where restaurants and shopping can be found. "

West Beach Inn, a Coast Hotel

4/10 Poor

"Room was very basic, small and nothing like pictured on the listing. The bed was uncomfortable, springs poking. Shower water pressure was low. Breakfast was basic. On our last night the smoke alarm kept beeping and finally we got up at 3am to call the desk. The guy came and wanted change the battery but it was wired so he just unplugged it and left. Very safe. Never got back to sleep so we just left early. The hot tub jets also malfunctioned the night before. Way too expensive for a room was that essentially a motel 6."

Best Western Plus Santa Barbara

6/10 Okay

"The air conditioning was not working so they had installed portable air conditioners in the window, so the window could not close and lock. We were on the ground floor, so worried about security. Room was clean, but had a strong chemical smell, like it had just been treated with insecticide or something like that."
