1. Without the warmth and sun, the famed charm of downtown Santa Barbara was lost on us; it felt like a sister to Santa Cruz, CA, with its similar Hippy attractions and biker vacation crowds.

2. Though it is nicely positioned in relation to the water and downtown, ther Eli's something a bit 'sketchy' about the neighborhood.

3. We made the mistake of trying to walk to the downtown area for dinner, as there are no apparent restaurants adjacent to the motel.
