6/10 Good

The location was perfect! Not far from the ocean and Stearns Wharf. Several places to eat close by. The hotel is older and in need of some repair and a bit cluttered. The room had no AC and was a little stuffy, but there was a small fan available to help move some air. It was safe and comfortable and provided a good place to stay the night. Breakfast was good and the place was interesting.

We love our stay at this “classic” spanish style Santa barbara hotel. Beautiful setting and our large upstairs room had a balcony with a view of the town, the sea and the mountains Very peaceful yet close to the sea, the restaurants, the funk zone and downtown Santa Barbara

4/10 Fair

⭐⭐½ 2.5/5 — Great location, but extremely overpriced The best thing about Villa Rosa Inn is definitely the location. It is very close to the beach and waterfront, and our room had a lot of space, which I really appreciated. However, at over $500 per night, I expected much more for the price. The inn advertises a continental breakfast, but what was provided was very limited and, in my opinion, not very good. The breakfast did not come close to matching what I would expect at that price point. The location and spacious room were positives, but overall I felt the stay was significantly overpriced for what was offered. I would consider staying here again at a much lower rate, primarily because of the excellent location, but I would not pay over $500 a night again.

The location is perfect. The staff is very helpful and friendly. However, the cleanliness of the room is terrible. The sofa is disgusting, as are the floor and the bathroom.

Great location, charming place including the "tower room" we got, friendly staff. However, the place needs to be renovated soon, the breakfast buffet was not very good and the waffle makers were a bit of a disaster, and the room was not ready until 30 mins after the official check-in despite announcing our arrival an hour early. They also habded us the room keys twice, only for us to find the riom completely messue up by the prior guests. Generally, the staff seemed a bit understaffed. Would potentially return though, if they get their house in order.
