Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
There was no ironing board or Iron
The TV didn’t work properly
But Location is everything
Street parking. Walking distance to beach/pier/ State St. Room was small and outdated. No A/C, had to open all windows which exposed us to mosquito bites.
We love our stay at this “classic” spanish style Santa barbara hotel. Beautiful setting and our large upstairs room had a balcony with a view of the town, the sea and the mountains
Very peaceful yet close to the sea, the restaurants, the funk zone and downtown Santa Barbara
Decent stay just don’t understand the $50 fee after my stay. impossible to get ahold of front desk breakfast is just cereal and a outdated waffle maker. Room was nice a lot of improvements need to be made to improve overall experience.
The room felt like home was very impressed with the kitchen the beds were amazing to sleep in

The location is perfect.
The staff is very helpful and friendly. However, the cleanliness of the room is terrible. The sofa is disgusting, as are the floor and the bathroom.
I would strongly not recommend staying at the Villa Rose Inn. The cleanliness of the room was poor. There is no air conditioning and the fans were not effective. May key card kept getting deactivated which meant numerous calls and trips to the front desk to get it reactivated. The shower did not work. There were absolutely no amenities. The yard near the cottages looked like a junk yard with refrigerators, old appliances and furniture scattered around. I left after three nights (had booked 6 nights). I left because I was getting ill. I requested a refund and was denied. I can go on but this is more than enough.
