Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: Wonderful place that I can always recommend for a stay in Santa Barbara. Although the hostel is located across the street to Tran station, this actually did not disturb (the signals of the trains entering the station). Definitely a plus are wonderful pancakes. I would definitely stay there as well next time when I visit cozy Santa Barbara, a town at the Pacific coast.
