The Milo

Across the street from the beach, which in the area is called beachfront. Beautiful older hotel with the Wharf and restaurants within walking distance. The room was very small and the had no closet to hang our clothes. Overall great stay.

Location, location, location! Unfortunately, checking in at 11 p.m. may have contributed to the lack of assistance we received. No one offered to help us with our luggage, which was disappointing after a long day of travel. Finding the dark blue gate on a dark street was difficult, especially since we had nothing other than our room key. Late night check in staff greeted us but, something was a miss as we knew nothing about the property other than 2 pools and the dark blue gate to our room.

Charming place with great location by the beach.

Great location. Clean, pretty, loved the smores around the fire in the evening Pool was lovely but a bit soulless. A bit of music and bar service could add to the experience.

A great place to stay with an overlook over the ocean! Also able to get on the beach easily and downtown was close enough to walk into

Very good

The location is perfect The room I had was upstairs and a bit out of the way but I reserved it that morning so I understand.

Fabulous location on the beach front, gorgeous views, fantastic size rooms and lovely & super helpful staff. We got to enjoy the complimentary bikes on our stay. Only wished we could have stayed longer on our trip

Look, it’s Santa Barbara, where everything is a little old/small/dingy but goes for a premium. However, if you’re on the fence about spending big here for a “premium” experience, know that it’s just not gonna be able to provide that you. Room was well appointed but the walls were paper thin so you hear every bump and noise from around you. It’s a well-lit building with exterior corridors, so there was a lot of light streaming into the room that the drapes couldn’t keep out. There were some ants as well, which makes sense based on the age of the property and its location by the beach, but that gets back to the original problem — spending around $1K on a room like this and expecting anything more than a modest upgrade over a best western plus will end up letting you down. Maybe it’s not the Milo per se, and just a fact about downtown SB in general. I value a premium experience when I spend for it and I was really let down.

Beautiful hotel with views and amenities. Would stay here again

I liked the happy hour and the outdoor seating areas

Our particular room was a bit weird. Our beds were supposed to be queen size but were too narrow and very uncomfortable. The vanity in our bathroom was very small so there was no room for toothpaste, toothbrush or anything else you might leave on the counter, no room. There was no table and chairs to just sit and visit. There were 2 occasional chairs and a small table but what was point? They were uncomfortable. Sorry but it was not a good experience.

Perfect location on the beach and easy walk into shop’s restaurants etc. The restaurant used for breakfast had large queues most days. However you are so close to lots of others within easy walk.

No breakfast Mats dirty
