Ramada by Wyndham Santa Barbara
Room was great, I did not take advantage of the May amenities available as I was only in town for a few hours. Just needed a great place to sleep. Thanks so much!

Great room in a quiet area in walking distance to many restaurants and bars. The kitchenette was outfitted well which made my stay very comfortable with a night in with take out food.
