The Inn is well kept. Clean. However the room is so small. Not that much room to put lugguages and the space is very tight for two people to walk around or sit to do anything. For staying overnight to break up the journey is okay. I do not advise people who would like to visit Santa Barbara for vacation... More

Wonderful renovated motel! We selected this hotel for staying a couple of days in Santa Barbare on our trip along the Californian coastline. We selected it based on its website and some tripadvisor review .... the outcome: great! Colorful rooms equipped with microwave, docking station for iphone, flat tv, small table for having your own meals in the room. Super... More

Really enjoyed my stay at this Inn. Loved the modern, mexican style decor, free wifi, parking and breakfast (coffee, muffins, fruit.) The guest directory book in the room had restaurant recommendations in it which we really appreciated. The only negative was the strong rotten egg odour coming from the shower drain, which eventually seemed to dissipate. So not sure what's... More

An easy walk to downtown but there are also a good range of cafe's & restaurants nearby. Breakfast is small but the owner is honest about this & we also found that Travellers talked easily as they poured their coffees. Rooms are spotless, linen & towels are fresh and the Service is wonderful. This is a great little hotel offering... More

Staying in Santa Barbara is really pricey and Agave Inn met our expectations. We needed to check-in later (after 9pm) and the hotel receptionist provided a message with instructions of how to get to the room and check-in only in the next day, in case the reception would be closed at our arrival. The room was modern furnished, really clean,... More

Agave Inn was a comfortable and affordable stay for one night in Santa Barbara. Stayed in a room with 2 beds upstairs. Room was spacious and clean with comfortable beds, a fridge and microwave, and a mini dining table. Could hear some outside noise but not enough to disturb our stay. Close to grocery stores and cafes. Short drive to... More

We stayed at the Agave for one night as we were traveling from San Francisco to San Diego with two adults and a toddler.. It was great. The room is just spotless and feels so cozy (I find it hard to really relax in rooms that feel a little dirty). Great location near a shopping center with a grocery store... More

I stayed here for one night and found the property and staff very good. It is located at the top end of State Street. You will still need a car to get to the beaches and the shopping district, but it is a ten minute drive only. Within one block is a supermarket and many restaurants, including a Coffee Bean.... More

I have stayed at the Agave Inn on two occasions, once during their grand opening weekend and again a year later. Both times I really enjoyed my stay. Now I rated this as a 4 not because it is a 4-star hotel but because it was very good and in line with my expectations. While it is on State and... More

Saw the positive reviews and though I was still reluctant when we drove up to the Agave Inn, I'm glad we checked it out and stayed here three nights! Clean and affordable and quick two mile drive to the happenings on State St. Staff here is helpful, friendly and we will definitely be back. Stayed in room #2 and there... More
