Staff and customer base

The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The game was held on the day I arrived, and at the time of check-in, I was given a roulette to which something would definitely hit, and gave me a free appetizer ticket for the BISTRO.

Access

There was a shuttle bus going from the hotel to Santa Barbara Airport. Since Santa Barbara Airport itself is not that big, the noise did not bother me at all. The bus also ran randomly, and there was a bus going to downtown Santa Barbara. There was no inconvenience with getting to supermarkets, bars and restaurants because there were many behind the hotel. During my stay, I asked if there was a rental bike at the hotel, but the staff gave me a free ride to my destination instead, and it was very helpful. The driver took me to the first Habit store, famous for its burgers. The fresh burger was the best.

Summary

Although the hotel was located a little ways from Santa Barbara, I could get there in 15 minutes by car. Sightseeing on the beach and relaxing in the hotel was an amazing experience. The halls were spacious with many paintings displayed. I do not stay in Los Angeles that often, but it was nice to be able to spend time in the Santa Barbara area. The taco shop, which was packed every day, was very cheap and delicious. I was very satisfied with the restaurant. The hotel was amazing, and I would definitely want to stay here again.
