"Jennifer's Cottage Room in Summerland, CA was a cozy little refresher. Trees and vines make for an intimate green space (check out the pictures.) Jennifer's was my getaway from noise, cement and traffic in LA. Great for a single or a couple. Summerland, California is a nice little sea side town just minitues from Santa Barbara. There are a wide variety of activities in the area, sun and sand, surfing lessons, vineyard tours, horseback riding--something for everyone. Just go and enjoy yourself!"

6.2 out of 10, (91 reviews)
"This place was a complete misrepresentation of their location. There was no pool on site. There were no amenities on site. The mentalities were for a hotel across the street, which is a completely different establishment potentially owned by the same owners, but it’s not in your hotel and items are across the street and you’ll be sharing them with another hotel. Yeah, it’s just a couple minutes from the beach, but it’s not worth the money or the stay"
