Pros: possible to stay only 1 night on a weekend and for less than $200/night in Santa Barbara, which is hard to find. Clean room and bathroom; comfortable bed. FYI on the night of Fri to Sat, a train chugged by and tooted twice (once late in the evening, once early in the morning); the freeway white noise was constant... more

This hotel is in a quiet East Beach neighborhood of apartments and a few hotels within walking distance to the zoo, park, 25 cent beach shuttle and of course, the beach. There is the East Beach Grill and a bicycle rental place nearby. I loved the organic market around the corner with fresh OJ and muffins. As for the hotel... more

Horrible. Way overpriced and extremely noisy !! I think there were families living there - large families !! Never will stay there again!!! more

We stayed at the Pacific Crest for a Wednesday and Thursday night and were charged $128 plus tax. We had a double room on the ground floor near the pool. The weekend rate was $199. (ouch!) It is true, there are absolutely no amenities at this motel (unless you consider a TV and an ice bucket amenities) and the motel... more

Can not recommend this place to anyone I know. Does not live up to advertised hype. Room was small and not kept up. Had to ask for clean set of sheets for one of the beds. Definately under staffed. more

I stayed in this motel based on the reviews I read here and boy was I wrong. My room was small, old, smelly, with absolutely no necessities you'd find at other hotels..ie: iron, coffee maker, alarm clock, air conditioning, etc. You also have to pay for a bucket of ice. Also the shower is a bit wierd. My room was... more
