The location was extremely convenient, especially since we didn’t have a car for most of our trip. It is just a few blocks from the beach and a short to moderate walk to a number of other popular Santa Barbara attractions. It’s also very close to the Amtrak station, which is one of the reasons we chose it since we traveled there by train. Also, the staff were extremely polite and professional and made us feel quite welcome. We received excellent customer service during our stay there. The hotel is located in a beautiful Spanish style building that blends in well with the predominant architectural style in the area.

Although I understand it's about to get a renovation, The Wayfarer is slightly eclectic with a lobby library and some very nice acoustic guitars to pluck. The rooms are tiny but so cleverly laid out that it's possible not to notice, even for a big guy like me. Of particular note, a very very nice kitchen off the lobby allows you to cook your own meals and take advantage of local ingredients rather than going out to eat. A very appreciated feature for someone who's been camping and avoiding crowds during the pandemic.

My room was exceptionally clean, but small. The staff are great. Kyle was very kind and welcoming, and patiently showed me a room so I decide if I like the rooms. If one is looking for a competent staff and clean rooms, this is the place. location is right next to highway and noise. Rooms are furnished and designed nicely .

Location is terrific near downtown and the Funk zone where bars and fun shops are located. Super helpful staff answered any questions and were very knowledgeable about area sights and restaurants. The communal kitchen was handy with most of the necessary items for ice and bfast, and snacks.
