Villa Rosa Inn - Santa Barbara

Awesome location but run down rooms.

Great front desk staff and pool. easy walk to beach and all things on State St.

The check in desk were fairly rude and unwelcoming when we arrived and whenever we made a request. The afternoon wine and cheese and breakfast in the morning were really good and the pool and spa area was lovely in a beautiful garden. Our room was large but up a dark staircase round the back and definitely felt a bit tired- the kitchen only had one chair for the table, one cup and one wine glass which was a bit useless and there was no hair dryer. Lovely location and pool but pretty poor service and accommodation for the price.

We spent little time in the room. Had to carry luggage up steep flight of stairs with dirty carpet.

normally stay here - but this time around it was awful. the cottage rooms were totally undermaintaned and the front desk was unaccomodating. Hasn't happened before (i've stayed a few times), i was actually a bit shocked. Not sure what's happening over there....
