Cheshire Cat Inn & Cottages

Was here for 2 nights with my partner, and first time staying at a bnb. Was pleasantly surprised by how clean and conveniently located it was. It’s a short walk from state street, where all the good restaurants and retail shops are. The breakfast was delicious and cooked with soul. The cookies were also a lovely treat. Highly recommend for a homey and enjoyable experience!

Very good, staying in the United States, the first time there was a waiter to help carry the luggage, breakfast, is cold food, end at ten o'clock on time. The surrounding environment is very good, we stayed for two nights, the hotel is quiet and clean, good.

The location was convenient and it was great for travelers with a car to park, because you can take the car out if you like or just leave it parked. We were able to walk to our dinner one of the nights and it was only a short drive for breakfast. I loved the balcony, it was the best way to enjoy the winter sun.

【よかった点】 立地が最強です! サンタバーバラ駅からこちらのホテルが見えるほど近いです。駅から徒歩2分ほどで到着します。 ・ホテルの共用部に電子レンジや飲み物などが設置されており、無料でパンも提供されています。パンはとても美味しかったです。 ・無料でお酒が一杯飲めます。ホテルの方が作ってくれます。 ・ホテルもとてもおしゃれです!隅々まで凝らしてあるので、ホテルの内部にも目を向けてみると楽しいです。 【いまいちな点】 ・お風呂 トイレとお風呂が近すぎ、かつ狭いです。かなり使いにくいので、要注意です。

This was the best hotel on our West Coast trip, even more comfortable than the 5-star hotel we stayed at in Las Vegas. We liked it so much we booked another hotel from the same chain later in Monterey. Parking was super convenient, right in front of our room, and it was free – plus they had breakfast! Where else can you find that? The scenery was beautiful, and it was incredibly kid-friendly. The pool was heated, though we didn't use it. There's also a self-service laundry room with dryers, but you need to download an app to top up and use them. Highly recommend booking a stay here!

I checked in after 9pm. The clerk warmly received me. When he heard that I wanted to watch the sunrise, he kindly reminded me of the sunrise time. The location is very close to the sea. The beach is 50 meters away. I strolled to the beach in the evening and morning. The room has two bathrooms, which is very convenient for friends of the opposite sex to live together.

There is a buffet in the afternoon. There is wine and fruit biscuit cheese. Very good. The room was very very clean. The bedding is soft. The room is small, and the family recommends a large room type. 2 minutes walk from the train station.

A more advanced level of enjoyment. Town center, good location, comfortable hotel. Gym, game pool, weather, all great. It's a few hundred meters away from the main street. At night, the atmosphere is very good. Lively and beautiful.

Motel 6 is a chain brand. There are three in Santa Barbara. Please check the address when booking. I made the mistake of booking this one. I drove to the beach ten kilometers away and found out I had made the mistake. Overall the rooms are quite decent, a little compact but have all the necessary facilities. It takes about ten minutes to drive to the beach. There is free hot water and instant coffee at the front desk. There is plenty of parking space for each room and there is a swimming pool.
