Herrliche Downtown Cottage: zu Fuß überall, Gated Yard, Fitnessraum, Parken auf dem Gelände

What a fantastic location! It’s just steps away from State Street. We especially appreciated the cute yard and nice touches.

Just spent a fabulous weekend in Santa Barbara which was made better by our extremely cozy lodgings. Easy walking distance from the State Street attractions without being too much in the tourist melee. This house is great for a small family or two couples. We enjoyed cocktails in the back yard and really appreciated the beach gear seeing as we didn’t bring our own. I highly recommend this spot and will definitely visit again the next time we travel to SB

Although small and quaint, the house was so lovely and completely perfect for our stay. Excellent location and had everything we needed. Garden was fab, abundant with birds and so nice to sit in with a cuppa in the morning. Would definitely book again

This house is cute and in a great location walking distance to many restaurants and stores. It's very old and small, but that's expected in this neighborhood. I have to give it a lower rating because I feel that the high cleaning fee is extremely unreasonable for an 850 square foot home. Of course I knew that when I booked it, and I did anyway because of the location, but once I saw the check-out instructions I was angry that we were charged so much. One of the check out instructions was "clean kitchen," and "wash dishes with special attention to the pots and pans", which I feel should have been included in the cost of the cleaning. We also had to start washing the towels and strip the beds. I’m not sure how the cleaning can be so high for a 850 square foot house when the kitchen and some of the laundry is done by the renter. Of course we did everything that was asked and tried to keep the kitchen extra clean because they said that a significant extra fee would be charged if these tasks were not completed and kitchen was not left as it was found.

I’ve stayed in houses three times as large in comparably expensive towns where we didn’t have to clean the kitchen and the cleaning fee was less. You’d think that for such a high cleaning fee the house would be immaculate, but there was a film of dust on the dishes in the kitchen on open shelves and the shower curtain and some of the linens looked dingy. Some of the dishes didn't look that clean either, since they are washed by the previous renters there was probably very little quality control.
