The Inn was cute and quaint! it was nestled back from the street, so it was very peaceful and relaxing. Could use updated furniture and a little more cleanliness of robes and linens.

Innkeeper Response
We are sorry to hear about your experience. We are quite surprised to receive such feedbacks in regards to our breakfast menu as we provide a wide variety of choices and adequate servings. In all honesty, this is the first time we receive complains about our breakfast menu. Nevertheless, we listen carefully to our guests’ needs and remarks as we believe there is always room to learn and improve. We are the new owners and just taken over the business. For the past year, we have managed a beautiful and very successful vacation rental estate in Montecito called Orzi De Montecito and our objective is to bring the same successful concept and experience to our Inn. We are currently renovating the entire inn and decorating each room and the entire landscape. We have already replaced all mattresses in each room with new very high quality and comfortable mattresses used by most luxurious hotels. During the next two weeks, all rooms will also have new carpets and in-room compact refrigerators. We are also revamping the breakfast menus with new idea and daily specials. Furthermore, we have added new items to our complimentary afternoon wine & cheese tasting. All the above is included in our rates ….something that most hotels charge you for. Soon we will also have dinner events in our living room area for our guests to enjoy and a new website and name. We hope to see you again to experience our new home!
