Prime location just steps off state street but still quiet at night. Jeff was a super communicative host. Lovely set up was perfect for our weekend get away. Love the back deck and rooftop as well.

This is a quaint, charming place to stay. It has a rich and interesting history. It is close to everything we wanted to do; within walking distance to the beach, to galleries and restaurants, a Saturday farmers market that is amazing, and much more!. The owner is continuing to update the unit. I would absolutely stay here again.

Jeff's place is a charming, clean, & cozy delight! The location is a short walk to the beach, train depot, surrounding cafes & tourist attractions. It overlooks a pretty canal which guests can enjoy from the patio or rooftop patio. Jeff is a great communicator and eager to offer his guests an optimal experience! We love to stay again in the near future.*Potential guests should be aware that Unit 3 bedroom is only accessible by a somewhat steep staircase.

Cicely, great feedback on Unit 3. I need to make that more clearer in the desscription (stairs). Unit 1 and 2 do not have stairs. Also, we will be installing a King bed in that unit and redoing the deck off of the door. Thank you again. I appreciate you choosing to stay with us and your private comment to continue to help us offer a great experience to guests. Respectfully, Jeff

Great location with walking distance to so many restaurants, Funk Zone and the marina. Kitchen has everything you may need. The upper roof is a great place to hang out. The stairs can be difficult for some but handrail is there to assist. A king size bed would be a plus as there is room in the bedroom. Overall, great place to stay and if we travel back to the area we would certainly book here again.

Prime West Beach location, just outside the Funk Zone and about 1.5 blocks from the beach. Our unit had everything we needed and was a great place for us to land after traveling and sightseeing. The host is super helpful and very responsive to any needs

Thank you James. I appreciate it. Guests never know what they are getting and in our AI world, I want you to receive the best hands on service possible and no there is a caring human being behind your stay. We are making improvments and excited about that. I hope you will consider coming back. Thanks again. Warmly, Jeff.

The host Jeff was easy to communicate with, the location is prime being near both the beach and downtown, the parking is easy enough to find and walk to, and the place is comfortable and clean. Main thing is that the bathroom is tighter than ideal, but other than that, the whole setup worked well for the three of us that stayed, utilizing the upstairs bed and downstairs sofa bed.

You can't beat the combination of price and location for this property! We used it as our home base for exploring the area around Santa Barbara but could easily walk or bike everywhere in Santa Barbara. It's close to so many great beaches, restaurants, shops, and tourist locations. Everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived. Some areas in the home are looking a little tired, but Jeff has plans to update soon. He was an amazing host, easy to contact and going above and beyond to make our trip special.

We had a lovely stay and felt the place was very private. We did not hear noise from other units. The location is incredible - you can walk to Stearns Wharf, or to Downtown State Street. Restaurants and shops just a few steps away. Darling neighborhood around it. Describing the unit as having vintage charm is accurate. The building is 100 years old, but I appreciated Jeff being upfront about the work he is doing on it. Perfect space for a couple. We had everything we needed and would stay again!

Great apartment for a couple. The host was a new owner and was working out some start up kinks, but Jeff was quick to respond and a great communicator. The apartment is in a wonderful location, just a couple blocks to the beach, the marina, State Street, Funk Zone and tons of great restaurants. I was there for 3 weeks and discovered new areas and activities every day. I had a great stay and kind of fell in love with the town. I'd go back!
