“SEMEHI ROCKS ON!!!!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 1, 2013

This young lady was such a great asset to this hotel, first off my cousin Suzi lost her keys and we of course couldnt find them so we went to Semehi and she ran with the ball and made a touchdown, she called us a cab, Graeme was our cab driver he gets a shout out too!!!! Then I left my clothes there and my cousin Suzi left her mirror, so once again Semehi helped us out, she fedex our stuff and she deserves a big raise, and believe me she made are little one day SB a great time!!!! The pool and gym looked awesome but we werent able to enjoy it, next time...also the breakfast goodies were simply yummy!!!!!

“Thanks Samahi and front Desk Ladies! I'm SUPER CRITICAL & You Surpassed my standards!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 1, 2013 via mobile

Thank Samahi and front Desk Ladies! We travel coast to coast because we own DC PLATINUM TRANSPORT and when we stay 200 nights on the road a year finding great clean rooms is important but when the staff is as lovely as the front desk ladies it's a no brainier stay there again! Mark the GPS. Rooms were clean plenty of food all over that is all walking distance. Or go. 3 miles from downtown. I would stay there again and I would feel comfortable recommending it because the staff is great and helpful and it's reasonably priced!

“Great value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 31, 2013

We stayed at this hotel after a hotwire deal. The basic features for me when I travel on a budget are cleanliness, confort bed and hot shower. Not only Sandpiper has it all as they also have big room, big bathroom, very nice shower, a small gym, a pool, a jacuzzi and parking. Staff is friendly and the place is well maintaned. Excelent choice!
But be aware that they are far from the beach, you will have to use your car.

“Comfortable, Affordable & clean”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 30, 2013 via mobile

Stayed here for a night passing through. Compared to a lot of other places in Santa Barbara the price was pretty cheap. Room was big and clean. Free parking & breakfast. Just a short drive to the water & nice restaurants. Compared to other budget motels/ hotels we have experienced in USA this one was really pretty nice!
