The Leta Santa Barbara Goleta, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Room was clean. Bed was comfortable. Pool furniture (cushions) need replacing but the pool area was otherwise very nice. $3 for a bottle of warm water in the room???"

The Upham Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was wonderful. The overall experience succeeded our expectations. We enjoyed drinks and appetizers one evening, followed by brunch the next day, and the complementary continental breakfast pastries were delicious. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The property was comfortable and very well maintained with beautiful outdoor seating areas that were perfect for relaxing. The location was another highlight. It was easy to walk to downtown making it convenient to explore the area without needing to drive. The food was great throughout our stay and we truly enjoyed our experience. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area."
