Drift Santa Barbara, a Member of Design Hotels

Room was very compact and there was no way of opening the window. Music from the bars were very loud until 2am. The hotel offered ear plugs, disappointing

La chambre d’hôtel est minuscule, l’hygiène est douteuse, le bruit est omniprésent.
Lorsque que l’on remonte tous ces points à l’hôtel, absolument rien n’est pris en considération et on argumente dans le sens on va devrait être acceptable.
Le rapport qualité prix est exorbitant. À fuir.

The room was very dark. There wasn't sufficient light to be able to shave or put on make-up. It could easily be rectified with lights around the mirror or a mirror in the bathroom area. Also, the music from the bars were loud and it was hard to fall asleep.

I didn't love that you had to text a request for room service 24 hours in advance but the process was easy. The room was called the "Cozy Room" which it was extremely cozy. Not a lot of space for large suitcases and the bathroom sink is in the main room.

Didn’t love that there is no valet or Bell service for the price, however, the overnight parking in the public lot directly adjacent to the hotel ended up being some of the least expensive parking I’ve paid at a hotel. If you’re looking for absolute peace and serenity, this may not be the spot as there is pretty active nightlife right below the hotel so things really won’t quiet down until about 2 AM.

May not be suitable for some guests

Lack of amenities, tissue boxes, towels, drinks

All about this hotel is a scam the images shown for the reservations are for a penthouse. I reserved a room for a night thinking that it was the one on the images since it was $500 a night. Instead when we open the door it was the smallest room, extremely low quality for the price that the bed is built in the wall with the furniture that your feet can touch it. also the shower and toilet are basically next to the entry since is so so small! Is outrageous how a hotel can sell this as 500$ a night, they now what they're doing. Do not book here they will also not refund you your money when you make the complain on is not what it shown. Booking will also not back you up and not give you the money. We talk to Darcy from front desk and we explain why we were not staying and she said she understand, you could tell on her face this is not the first time she's heard this.

Noisy, dirty, tiny room, unstaffed.

Funky smell in the hallway

The rooms are super small. I could not fit 1 large suitcase!! The bed is pushed against the wall so you need to jump over the other person if you need to use the bathroom in the middle of the night- the hotel puts sandalwood scent in the cleaning solution so the bedroom has a very strong odor which I was very sensitive to. I had a headache and could not sleep. Although the hotel said they were trying to do “everything they could” I checked out after 1 night and went somewhere else. Now trying to get my money back!! My recommendation- don’t book here there are too many other great hotels.
