Castillo Inn at the Beach 2 stars

Hotel in West Beach, Santa Barbara

Featuring 2-star accommodation, Castillo Inn at the Beach is situated in Santa Barbara, less than 1 km from East Beach and a 10-minute walk from Leadbetter Beach. Anywhere else, I might have thought it overpriced, but in very pricey Santa Barbara, the Castillo Inn was great value in a great location, when neighbouring properties were asking 4-figures per night! Property was spotlessly clean, room was large and comfortably appointed. Highly recommend.
