Visit Isla Vista

Hotel Santa Barbara
Room was small but efficient, great interior furnishings. There was a fridge (mini bar not free), but free coffee and tea (good quality stuff too), kettle for boiling water. Plenty of cups. Nice large bathroom. Big open lobby with a little coffee/drink bar. My room faced courtyard so no street noise. ...

Hyatt Place Santa Barbara
Breakfast is typical. Similar to many other hotels breakfast (scramble eggs, boil eggs, bacon, oatmeal, bagel, coffee, juice, apple and banana…). But the only thing is they open from 7am and close at 9am. Be sure to be there early.
