Hotels were either sold out, super far or ridiculously priced at over $400/night. I saw the hostel & he said he loved the idea...meeting new people, having a place to sleep, being downtown and you can't beat the rate. I did get him the private bedroom because he snores. Eeek, don't tell him I shared that on the internet! He checked in rather late at 9pm and was welcomed in by Hailey. She shared the rules, gave him a quick tour of the hostel and he left his backpack in his room and went out to find some dinner. He shared that it was such a relaxed environment: people working on their laptops, chatting by the fire pit, cooking up a meal, and sharing a beer. When he came back most people had gone to bed. He used the restroom which he said were spotless, went to bed and slept all night. He commented that the hostel was super clean, trendy, and really had a great atmosphere. Everything is so close by and while the crowd was younger than him, he said it's definitely a place he'd come back to and said he thinks I'd love it too!

It's about 5 blocks to the Amtrak station, which works for some people. The prices for our room and dates were really good. About $150 plus taxes. They have good internet here. Not the fastest, but faster than most hotels. I highly recommend Castillo Inn.

The officer was supposed to put her son Daniel Lee Luelf in a mental hospital. But they came with shotguns and just attacked without talking. She was denied freedom of speech in court on Daniels Defense when she had Conservatorship and Power of Attorney. The crowdfunding campaigns are concealed. tiny.cc/rights and tiny.cc/rights1 She was also homeless in Santa Barbara where she reported to Social Security that she stayed in a Homeless Shelter and they stopping paying her the full award amount so she could not save up for a Rental Lease. She died with a black leg and was also injected at Sun Valley or Menifee Hospital she had pictures of the bruises on her after medical treatment on her phone perhaps the number is tiny.cc/txtmom. I personally have never stayed at a hotel because I cannot get a Drivers License and The DMV never sent me an ID after I requested a refund for them taking away my drivers license. I cannot get a housing lease or bank account to accept any community donations. I only ask that you assert your right to Freedom of Speech in court. The court system is corrupt and even denies jury trials and paperwork on appeal tiny.cc/deniedpapers; In Washington V. Blakeley the man is accused of killing his own family and denied jury trial and court paperwork on appeal to 9th circuit. I think it may be related to acid or other poisoning. I think that perhaps the ventilation system may have evidence of toxins.

As soon as I walked in, she had the rudest look on her face and just did not want to deal with me clearly. i came in just to see if my late check out was still okay & she DISRESPECTFULLY responded to me saying that was not happening. As we were going back & fourth because i was confused why her employee would say yes then she chose to say no, she was constantly yelling at me, talking over me, laughing at me, & rolling her eyes at me. when i asked who was in charge of her so i could file a complaint against her, she laughed & said i can send an email. which i will be, & i have also filed a complaint with the BBB. As a "manager" she not only handled the situation incorrectly, but she also disrespected me. the RIGHT thing to do was to just apologize to me and say they don't do that & apologize for the misinformation. Instead, not a single sorry on her behalf nor did she want to make up for the confusion. As a manager working in customer service, and hospitality, you would think she would have a warm welcoming personality and be able to handle situations like this. instead she decided to treat me badly, disrespect me, and laugh at me. i could care less about the late check out. i figured i would ask if it was possible. i am upset with how she not only treated me & my family, but how she responded to a situation as simple as this. it did not have to get to the point it did nor did she have to disrespect me when i came in nicely and treated her with respect. because i treat people the way i want to be treated. clearly she does not do that.

The lady who works the front desk isn't very friendly but she gets the job done. The price for this place idk...could've been cheaper for what you get. It is cleaned daily has a refrigerator and near an easily accessible shopping/restaurant area. Overall I would give this place 3/5, not bad not good just meh in the middle.

Depending on the room, some reviewers have mentioned them being on the smaller side. We opted for one of the medium rooms and felt that it was a great size and worth the extra cost. Hotel staff was extremely friendly and we loved that the Dawn coffee shop and the Dusk bar were attached to the property (Dusk in particular is phenomenal). The hotel had everything you needed and was executed well. My one con is that some outside noise does seep in (they have ear plugs if you want). Overall, I would definitely stay in this hotel again for the prime location, kind staff, high quality rooms, and attached bar/coffee shop. Note- There is a parking lot close by for 25 dollars per day. They also have a partnership with Buttonwood Vineyard where you get a buy one get one free wine tasting.

She was prompt, nice, sweet, kind and quick. She checked us in and gave us 2 room cards and told us where our room is located. It has 2 adjacent buildings, 21 rooms, and each room had its own parking space. Our room was #210. We walked in and liked everything about it. Amenities included: 2 queen size beds, nice size TV, small closet space, mini fridge, microwave, lots of drawers, shower, iron, hair dryer, the desk, coffee maker along with sugar, creamer etc... Room was very clean, beds were very comfortable, and so were the pillows. Sheets were crisp, clean along with the towels in the bathroom. It had a cute window and a chair right next to it. From outside. Overall was a quiet Inn. The reason for giving 4 stars is because of different things. 1, the bathroom door was making a squeaky sound when opening it, 2. There was no complimentary breakfast, didn't accept my AAA card, and 3. For 2 nights it was $292.25 including tax. For that price, we could have booked a room in a more upscale hotel. However, it was convenient and close to major restaurants, and shops. Also close to the freeway. I will stay there again if I happen to be in Santa Barbara.
