It's fine
Sandpiper is nice...priced reasonably. It is clean and fairly quiet. Continental breakfast is very limited. The only real drawback was the slow wifi and 0-1 bar reception on my phone. Maybe because I was on the ground floor under a stairway. If the price was low enough I'd stay here again.

Santa Barbara stay
This place is quite old , but affordable in a very expensive town. Parking lot and entrance are very tight for a full sized truck.

The rooms were clean, not very updated and we could’ve used some more pillows for the bed. But overall, it was good.
