  This was actually our second stay at this place in Carpinteria. It’s super clean, comfortable, and has an awesome shower. The kitchen is a little small but it’s clean and nicely done. I definitely recommend this historic place!

• Noisy and not comfy

  2/5

  I thought the picture of the property was charming and the location just off the Main Street, ideal. Sadly, the experience was just not ok. Biggest issue: the gas station next door. The sound of motorcycles and large loud trucks pulling in late at night and early in the morning meant I couldn't get a decent sleep, despite the nice bed. To me - that's everything. Other smaller issues: can't open the window shades unless you want people on the sidewalk looking directly into the bedroom. Same with front room. So, no privacy. Dark wood floors have no carpeting, so they're really cold at night. Same with the tile on the floor in the bathroom, one mat only for the shower, otherwise ice cold. Finally, no hot water on day 2 of a 3 day stay. It lasted the remaining 24 hours. Would not recommend a stay here to anyone.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Heather, we appreciate your feedback, and we are committed to providing an excellent experience for our guests. Here are some insights from the homeowner:
  -First and foremost, it's important to note that during this guest's stay, they did not reach out to management to report any of the issues they mentioned. Unfortunately, this meant we were not aware of the issues and thus unable to address them promptly. Before their arrival, the guest was provided with management's direct phone number and email, both of which were available for them to communicate any concerns.
  -Regarding the hot water, we were surprised to learn of any issues as there were no reports during the guest's stay. Our management was present on the property and did not observe any issues, and other guests staying in different units at the same time did not encounter any hot water problems either.
  -Our property's central location in the heart of town is often a highlight for our guests. While this can result in some traffic noise during peak hours, we have not received complaints about noise disturbances during quieter times. Additionally, we take pride in the historic charm of our property, particularly the large windows on the first floor, which many guests have admired during their stays. To ensure privacy, we have provided high-quality shades and blinds, and we would have been happy to offer the guest a transfer to the quieter back unit had we known about their concerns.
  -The unit is equipped with central heating that guests can control within their unit. We are more than willing to provide extra bath mats upon request, although guests are welcome to utilize the abundance of towels we provide as an alternative mat solution.
  -We always strive to address any requests or concerns our guests may have to ensure they have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. However, we rely on open communication from our guests to identify and resolve any issues they may encounter.
  Our commitment to all our guests is to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests as evidenced in all other reviews.
