The tiny room was overpriced and unattractive, especially with the ceiling in the hallway with a tarp to prevent it from dropping unto the floor. Have never paid so much for so little.

Awesome boutique style hotel in a prime location. Easy walk to train station and the wharf. My go to spot in Santa Barbara!

I stayed here for a wedding and couldn’t have been happier. The location is perfect. It is walking distance to downtown, great restaurants and the beach. The staff was incredibly accommodating and friendly throughout the stay. The pool area was a great spot to relax and unwind. The vibe is fun, the rooms are clean and the overall experience was exactly what we hoped for. Highly recommend.

I stayed at the Moxy Santa Barbara for the first time and absolutely loved it! You can't beat the Moxy's location. It's close to endless shops, restaurants, and the beach. The staff is incredibly friendly and the hotel is clean and decorated really well. This is my new go-to hotel for all my Santa Barbara trips!

My favorite Moxy hotel by far. The location was close to everything we needed; beach, pier, restaurants. The poolside room was a two second walk to the pool and a minute walk to state street. This will definitely be my go to property in Santa Barbara.

We loved our stay at the Waterman! All of the staff we met were super friendly and personable, and the location was perfect for walking to other places in Santa Barbara. The hotel is in the Funk Zone neighborhood, which has the cutest restaurants, cafes, and wineries. If you're looking for a more local, quieter feel than the more crowded restaurants on State street, check out Funk Zone! We could also walk to the beach and to the pier which we appreciated. We were able to use the hotel's bikes for free for an hour and enjoyed biking along the coast and exploring the beaches. We celebrated my birthday there, and Jean Luc made me feel super special. Jean Luc, Kathleen, and Julie were all so friendly and recommended great places to check out in the area! We loved the quiet feel of the hotel, and how it never felt crowded. The pool area was really nice and we enjoyed using the communal kitchen in the lobby area. The only downside to this hotel is the size of the rooms. They are small, including the bathroom, so if you are expecting a resort with big rooms and a ton of amenities, this isn't the place for you. But if location and excellent service are high on your list where you plan on being out of the room for most of your stay, then Waterman is a great place to stay.

Great location, but not great value for the price
This is a cute spot in a great location, but it is, in my opinion, very over priced for the value. Service was excellent, staff was great.They tell you on check in that the rooms are "European style" & "Cozy" and I'm sure they do this because people have complained. They are small room, not bad but small and boutique feeling. The bathrooms are crazy small, the shower and toilet share space and you flip a little glass door open to cover the toilet when showering. I could not turn around in the shower without the shower curtain catching me and then clinging to me... not my favorite. Very much like an RV shower in terms of space. Don't even dream of reaching all the way down to wash your feet. Additionally our room was on the freeway side and was INCREDIBLY loud with freeway directly outside of our window, all night noise. Bathroom door is glass and when my wife got up earlier than me to shower I was up too because the light from that door shines right at you in bed.
Great walking area close by. The price is why I would not stay again. I might for around half the price per night if I wanted to stay on more of a budget night with less of a room, but it was WAY overpriced for what I felt we got. I found myself wishing we had chosen a different hotel.
