I only stayed one night but wished I could have stayed longer. The staff immediately made me feel welcome. The bunk beds were cozy and I loved the privacy curtains. They've created a nice community for travelers. The location is great, an easy walk to State St. and right by the train station, which is how I was traveling. I visited another hostel in San Diego later in my trip and they paled in comparison. I look forward to when I can return and spend more time.

Our stay was short but sweet! A great location near the wharf and downtown, we were able to enjoy experience the wonder of Santa Barbara even within a day. Definitely appreciated all of the accommodations from the delightful breakfast to comfy bed, it was a perfect spot for novice and seasoned travelers alike. Shout out to all of the wonderful staff for a fun time, our experience is definitely something we’d do again! If you’re looking for a relaxing stay, friendly faces, and solid SB experiences, the ITH is the place to go!🌊🏖️🐚🤙✨

Refreshingly friendly, clean & central
Fabulous! Since we were travelling on our Amtrak multi pass, it was great to be able to stay so close to the station & the Santa Barbara Waterfront for such a good price AND within easy walking distance of all SB’s tourist attractions. Also nice to have friendly hostellers to chat to after our many, often-lonely, friendless,motel stays. Clean & comfy. Great to be able to cook own brekky with ingredients provided. Brought back happy mems of my youth❤️
