Pros:

Parkoviště

Cons:

Měli jsme pokoj, který byl na stranu silnice a to se opravdu nedá. Celou noc byl tak strašný hluk, že se vůbec nedalo spát.

I enjoyed not paying $300 to stay in a similar room elsewhere in Carpinteria.
Pros:

It was easy to check in and the staff were very friendly. Room was clean and comfortable. Pretty quiet in general, except for the freeway. The TV had a reasonable set of channels available.

Cons:

The location is a little difficult because it is right across a road from the freeway, and a lot of noise comes from there. Fortunately, my room wasn't right in the front, but still caught a fair amount of noise.

Wahrscheinlich sehr gut wenn das Zimmer nicht zur Straße gewesen wäre ….
Pros:

Die Unterkunft selber war grundsätzlich sehr gut und die Anlage sehr schön, aber wir haben nur noch ein Zimmer straßenseitig zum Highway bekommen 😔 es war fürchterlich laut …. ansonsten hätte es super gepasst, aber für eine Nacht hab‘ ich‘s auch gut überstanden 😊….

Cons:

Lärm vom HW, weil Zimmer strassenseitig

Pros:

On a positive note, the room itself was fairly clean.

Cons:

This was a terrible experience. The hotel is located right next to the highway, and because of the constant noise, I couldn’t sleep at all during the night. The soundproofing is practically nonexistent.

Additionally, my room had a very strong smell of cigarettes. Since I checked in late, I didn’t have the energy to ask for a different room, which I later regretted. As a result, I barely got any sleep.
