    lack of children's activities

    My kids wished there were more activities for children on-site. A family-friendly game room would be great.

    bicycle rental
    themed dinners

    Loved the bicycle rental and themed dinners! It felt like home, just like that lovely stay in my own private apartment. Can't wait to come back!

    Felt totally at home, no complaints at all.

    spacious suite
    heated pool
    spotty wi-fi

    We had a fantastic time enjoying the spacious suite with a comfy sofa bed and the beautiful pool area which was perfect for relaxing. The heated pool and lush garden made our downtime feel extra special. The only thing was the Wi-Fi was a bit spotty at times, but it didn't ruin our stay. 😊

    Would recommend for a city holiday

    Beautiful grounds, comfortable room, with lovely amenities like a heated swimming pool and 24-hour reception, located just a short drive from downtown attractions.

    No valet service available upon arrival.

    great location
    spacious suite
    helpful staff

    the location of tribute portfolio is great, close to the downtown area. my one-bedroom standard king suite was spacious and had a nice living area. the helpful staff really enhanced my experience, and the outdoor pool is a relaxing spot.

    the facilities need better upkeep, especially given the high pet fee.

    great amenities but far from attractions

    The guesthouse had beautiful decor and a very pleasant lobby. The one-bedroom suite featured modern facilities and sufficient space for relaxation.

    The location is far from the city of Santa Barbara.

    poor air-conditioning
    steep parking

    The air-conditioning in the room didn't function properly, leaving us in a bit of a sweat after a long day. Additionally, the price of self-parking at $20 per night felt a bit steep considering the overall amenities offered. The dining options, while charming, encountered service delays that could be frustrating if you're on a strict schedule.

    enjoyable strolls to nearby parks and cafes

    I loved the beautiful grounds filled with greenery and flowers, and the recently remodeled suite was perfect for relaxing before my city adventures. it’s just a short walk to Crushcakes and Cafe, which is a great spot for breakfast. Devereaux Slough is just under a kilometer away for a lovely park view.
