THINGS TO KNOW
Although this unit is not equipped with air conditioning, it is rarely needed with the mild summer temperatures at the beach. A ceiling fan ensures a pleasant breeze.
Your beachside locale is half a block from the Amtrak rails, and passing trains may occasionally be heard.
This studio is part of an older historical building with multiple units, so guests may hear noises from adjacent units. Several other units are available in the same property for rent to accommodate a group. Inquire if you need to sleep more than four people.
The home is located near the train tracks (all Santa Barbara beachfront properties share this feature) and the 101 freeway. If you are sensitive to noise when you sleep, we recommend using the earplugs provided in each unit. While the noise doesn't bother most guests, we like to be transparent so there are no surprises.

Parking notes: There is free parking available for 1 vehicle.
This rental is located on floor 2.

Security camera details: In the parking lot, front door, and back deck

Amazing place!
This spot was perfectly located. The building itself was beautiful and on a beautiful street. Although there are some sounds (like the train) I would say only great things about this place.

Great location
Very homey, had all the amenities we needed. A few blocks from the beach, a few blocks from the zoo and not too far from downtown.

Beautiful little room!
I just loved this location and the beautiful room, unable to control the temperature of the room but the fan helped and it was never too cold or too hot.

Nice but not worth the price
We had a nice stay, the decor was cute, and it was clean. It was nice to be so close to the beach and downtown area. Some things to note: the bed is a full size (not queen as advertised), the thin walls bothered me more than I expected, there is not a hair dryer, and the TV remote only worked for the power and volume so we couldn't change the channels. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves, but didn't think it was worth the price once all the fees were added.

Very nice but…
The room was homey, light and airy., the location was perfectly within walking distance or <10 minute drive to cute eats and shops, but there were too many numbers to memorize to access the room and there was no maid service for our 3 day trip. Overall, 4.5/5 stars.

Liked: Check-in
A bit misleading
Good location, clean space. The room is very small, “studio” alluded to at least a little living space but this is a small bedroom. There is only a few feet around the bed in the room. I called to request early checkin & was told they would text me hourly before 4 pm to let me know if the room was ready. They never let me know and then when we left the cleaners arrived before our 10 am check out. 2 codes required, one is 10 digits long. In my opinion a hotel of comparable cost would provide more amenities, security and space.

Convenient and comfortable
My husband and I appreciated our stay here for four nights to attend a nearby family wedding. Although the room was small, it was clean and comfortable. The best part: we felt very safe in the area and it was super close to the beach!

Best bang for your buck
This was the cutest most affordable stay I’ve done in a long time. Literally walking distance to a very cute open air grocery store and the beach! Virtually no hassle what so ever from booking the room to checking out, very easy. The room itself felt homey and cozy. We spent very little time in the room but it was perfect for what we needed. Towels were clean, the bathroom was tidy and it felt like home for the short time we were there. I will be coming back.

Short Walk to the Beach & More!
This studio is a perfect place for a couple to stay if you want to spend time at the beach or walk to restaurants and other nearby sights. The room was clean and comfortable. You can hear the train, but the horn is brief when it passes. The studio suited our needs perfectly.

Close to beach and highway
Cute little room near the highway and the beach. Safety concerns with no inside the room lock and curled carpet corner is a trip hazard near the door and bathroom walkway. Also very smelly soaps and diffuser in the room. Bought my own unscented soap

Very clean and cozy room. Especially liked the jacuzzi bathtub. Nice neighborhood and very close to beach. Do have to go upstairs to room and trains do occasionally go by. The noise did not however disturb our sleep. Definitely recommend this lodging.

Fantastic experience
The wife and I have been guest for over 10 years and the experience ( after a 2 year interruption) exceeded our expectations. For the 1st time we stayed in the San Miguel, and our last day in the Jordan suite. We have a new favorite room, private, quiet, walk to beach , just all around "Loved It". Additionally, the Vacasa Property Manager "Zachary" was instrumental in delivering great customer satisfaction. Great guy, true professional. Thanks again, see you soon!! Danny + Peggy Block
