Convenient location: We were within walking distance to the beach and State St., but we enjoyed using the bicycles provided by the Lavender Inn. Ample parking spaces. The breakfast in the morning and wine tasting in the afternoon kept us nearby. We were initially hooked with the notion of lavender scent, and they provided a small pouch of lavender on our pillow at check in. The front desk even provided some earplugs when the tenants next door exercised some vigorous slamming of their door.

The tenant next door repeatedly slammed their front door when leaving early in the morning. The building structure did not dampen the sound.

The location was great - easy and nice walk to State Street. And the champagne in the room was a nice touch! There is also a daily happy hour that we only tried one day and it was pretty decent - self serve wine and decent appetizers.

Breakfast was a nice continental breakfast - but was the same everyday so it was tiresome for our 4 night stay. And the policy of only cleaning the room after 3 days is unacceptable. There were only 2 towels for us and they didn't dry due to the humidity and lack of airflow. They offer daily service if you ask - which we did. They missed the first day so had to ask again.

I usually don't do written reviews, but this was by far the best Inn I've ever stayed at. Aron checked us in but what he actually did was being a tour guide telling us everything we could check out in the area, all while being one of the kindest human beings I've met. Then we got a free room upgrade and the new room was basically a flat including a fully equipped living room. In addition, they provide you with champagne on the house upon arrival, every single day there is a complimentary wine tasting with snacks, you can fill up your water bottle as often as you'd like free of charge all day, there is a really nice pool, and you can do laundry (wash and dry including detergent for four dollars) and rent bikes for free at their partner hotel across the street. I'm still speechless as they offer all this at a comparably really low price and everything is super clean, the staff is extremely friendly and helpful and the location js just perfect, no matter if you arrive by car or train, and the beach as well as downtown are within walking distance. Thank you so much for everything!

Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Happy hour was excellent and made the stay really enjoyable. Access to the laundry was very useful. The pool was clean and beautifully maintained. Wish we had the time to make use of the complementary bike hire as this would have made it simple to have explored further along the coast.

Very peaceful place with the beautiful garden, complimentary wine happy hour, small fountains, fireplace on chilly mornings and the kind, helpful staff. I got a queen room and it was very comfortable for me as a solo traveler. The room has a fridge, a coffee machine, and a microwave, which were really convenient for me. The housekeeping upon request works totally fine with me. They work really well as well. The assistants at the front desk are helpful and attentive. Many thanks to them. Many of the hotels here don’t provide breakfast so I am glad that breakfast is available. Overall, I loved it. Hoping to come back.

The only thing could be the cold hard boiled egg at breakfast. I’d rather have warm/hot scrambled eggs but it is still not much of a big deal.

The bed was extremely comfortable and we had everything we needed including robes. The breakfast was perfect for us, decent variety. The location was within walking distance to the beach and family so it was perfect. All staff were helpful and friendly. Loved the courtyard

The pool is very exposed to people walking and driving by, maybe a little more privacy around that.

Small and cozy building. Housekeeping refreshed and cleaned the room every day. Continental breakfast and afternoon wine and cheese available every day at no extra charge.

Wall air conditioner was very loud and noisy. Price was very high for this age of a motel and amenities available were minimal.

The person that we had the Most contact with Lee at the front desk & she was superb. She was very aware of the operation and she was multiple suggestions for us on things to do. We took her Advice one a few things and truly enjoyed them. We look forward to using your facility again in the future. Thank you.

N/A we had a marvelous time with family and friends who also stayed at the Hotel with us.

Super comfy beds, incredibly friendly and warm staff, beautiful pool and the perfect location to explore Santa Barbara from, we even made the most of the free bike rental!

We only wish there had been some bottled water in the room as the tap water wasn’t great

The hotel is very clean. It’s surrounded by a beautiful landscape and variety of lavender flowers. The location has two pools to choose from. It’s walking distance to the beach. Their continental breakfast is great. Plus, they offer happy hour, with home made desserts.
