Top North State Hotel Reviews

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara

8/10 Good

"Did the job, basic hotel, good AC Good location from dowtown and Stern's Wharf Ice machine perfect for our stay Pool looked refreshing but didn't have time to go Decent price for area"

Best Western Plus Carpinteria Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great stay for our weekend at Palm Tree Music Festival! The room was clean and comfortable and they have great vending machines for late-night snacks. The staff was super nice and it was relatively close to where we wanted to be. The only thing we were bummed about was the pool needing a little maintenance but we just dipped our feet in instead of taking a swim. Parking is also free which is so uncommon nowadays! Overall great stay!"
