Absolutely fine for a brief stay in delightful Santa Barbara. Well appointed room (I had a queen size single) with HBO, fridge and microwave. Completely clean, comfortable and presentable. It's a good 5 to 10 minute drive from the tourist centres so if you are on foot then prepare for a very long walk or taxi fares. I'd stay again... more

I recently came to town for an event and stayed at this motel. I booked it because it was affordable and in a good location. When I checked in, I was very satisfied, as my room was clean and had a refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker and the television got a good amount of channels,. There was also air conditioning... more

I was hesitant at first reading all the negative reviews, but still made a reservation for a Queen sized bed for one night. The room was clean and equiped with the usual facilities, equipments. I also got a real cheap deal, so nothing to complain about. I just guess that reviews which are a bit older are from the time... more

We had stayed in this motel 2 years ago because all other motels in the area were booked. At that time it was a motel for construction workers staying in the area long term. The price was extremely reasonable and the location great so we could overlook the rundown condition and the noise from our neighbors. This year we needed... more

The two queen beds room was definitely on the small side, but it had everything - fridge, microwave, even a gas range; definitely equipped for extended stays. Clean and inexpensive ($88 a night, no breakfast). It's about 5-7 minutes' drive from Santa Barbara's main sights. more

My husband and I stayed at the Hacienda Motel for only one night. The room was a little small but had a cosy feel to it. A little rough in places, but was fine for a one night stay. The manager was very helpful and friendly. The location was a pretty average part of santa barbara. more

Room was clean, big enough, nice, adequate. Terrific location. They asked for $69 for a bed for two. I asked for AAA rate, and was offered $65. Considering almost everyplace around here is $200, I feel this was a find. Don't love it, but it's more than adequate. more

The host of the hotel had been kind enough to return books I had tor return before I left. The location was great it was nice to visit the shops in the hub but felt great... more

We stayed the hotel on two occasions and had a nice stay there. The price is great on weekdays, but on weekends not really worth the price considering the place is quite old. Recarpeting the place would really be nice. At least the place is clean and the staff has always been great during our stays. Only wished I was... more
