There is a construction project right outside making it noisy early in the morning. The facility is very nice but not sure it’s worth the price.

It's a beautiful property, perfect for a getaway. The ambiance is quiet, and the room decor is both unique and in good taste. We had a balcony room, which faced the street. While the beach isn't within walking distance and we had to take Ubers to get there, the overall experience was still delightful. The pool area is amazing—warm, inviting, and enhanced by a fireplace for the evening, making it just perfect.

The rooftop pool was outstanding. Same goes for the friendly and attentive hotel staff, Definitely the highlight of our stay at the property. The bar and restaurant were also great. Unfortunately, the bed in our room was too soft, which will probably keep us from staying there again. And the bathroom doors were ventilated shutter doors like you might find on a closet, which meant all the sound in the bathroom was heard in the rest of the room. Overall, the hotel is really nice and I recommend it if you don’t mind soft beds and prefer a good pool over being close to the beach.

First, shoutout to Edwin for being an amazing when I spoke to him at the front desk. I love the Kimpton(s), but I did think the balcony room looked a lot smaller in person and the room didn’t feel as luxurious. I loved the (coffee) amenities, the valet staff and location.

6/10 Good

We arrived at 4:10 (check-in is at 4:00), and were told "Linens are running late, your room isn't ready." No biggie, we hung out in the lobby for about 15m, then got a missed-call (there is _horrible_ reception inside, and the WiFi is for guests only, and we weren't yet a guest...) saying our room was finally ready. The room itself was nice enough. Unfortunately, the room wasn't exactly ready, since the pillows were piled up in a chair without cases on them. Sigh. We figured we'd hit the pool and ask them to finish making up the room...so we went to the "largest rooftop pool in Santa Barbara", only to find that it was closed for a private event. Sigh. Eventually, things got sorted, we had a nice dinner out, etc. etc. The next day we decided to try the pool. There is NO SHADE upstairs around the pool (about 1/3rd the number of umbrellas needed), and the pool is about 20 feet long, and 3 feet deep. Figured we'd just lounge elsewhere on the rooftop deck (try and make some shade somewhere), but it was booked for another private event. Repeat the above for 4 days. On the plus side, the location is great - plenty of restaurants nearby, a mile-ish walk to the beach, etc. The valet service was FANTASTIC, and they were on top of charging the car while we stayed there. For the price of the room, the lack of useful ameneties and service just weren't worth it. I don't think we'll be back to this property.
