Staff interaction was…. Limited. Upon check in, I didn’t even get a welcome, barely anything was said except “sign here”. Even with me trying to start a conversation. It just wasn’t that welcoming. Room was okay. There was mold on the showers and ceiling. Housekeeping was phenomenally good. They kept us up in towels and linens. Even changing our trash out late in the day. I

This is an affordable location if you want to be able to walk and enjoy Carpinteria. I felt self walking at night from town back to the hotel. I would say the hotel is nothing special but I found my room spacious and clean. It was nice that there was plenty of parking.
