I love the Mar Monte
I love this hotel. It's so cute - seems so intimate but actually is sizeable. It's the perfect location near the beach and other sites of Santa Barbara. My only suggestion would be to make coffee available in the lobby earlier than 7 - we were there for a lacrosse tournament and when you have an 8 a.m. day, having coffee before leaving for the games would have been great. Other than that, everything about this hotel is wonderful and it's a great place to stay.

Resort fee issue
Our overall stay was great and I was excited to stay again until it was time to check out. The resort offers great amenities that are included as part of the fee. One of those is a nightly drink at the bar. When we went to check out, I was told that since we were charged a cheaper resort fee, the nightly drink was not covered. I said the would gladly pay the higher resort fee to get the drinks for free. I was told that was not possible. That is unacceptable in my opinion. If I paid a resort fee, I should get all the benefits listed or given the choice to pay a smaller resort fee. Not be told after the fact. I would not have gone to the bar if it was not included.

Search for better options
For the size, comfort, and quality of the room, the cost was way too high. Proximity to the beach was great, but the overall experience fell short of our expectations.

We were laying down in bed when a spider egg fell from the ceiling. There were spider webs on the ceiling, the bathroom was dirty, shower as well. It’s an old property with very old carpet that smells and makes the rest of the room smell.

Way overpriced! $360 a night for a small queen room next to the elevator with a tiny bathroom with no door open to the bedroom. Seriously?
