Top Goleta Hotel Reviews

Vinland Hotel and Lounge

Vinland Hotel and Lounge

10/10 Excellent
"The Hotel was clean and updated and the parking was convenient. It is at the end of the Solvan downtown area but considering the size of the area it's still has easy access to restaurants and shops. We walked to the community theatre and it only took 8-9 minutes each way. The "Lounge" was closed (without any notice on the website) and they said it was expected to be that way for the near future."
