Overall Ratings & Reviews Moxy Santa Barbara

Great property, rooms are a little quirky but facility is great overall and the location is perfect.

Thedesk staff was incredibly rude. My colleagues and I were sitting for a chat in the lobby and the front desk person literally kicked us out and said that the public spaces closed at 11pm. I've never hear dof such a thing.

Great cool boutique hotel. Very clean. It is next to the freeway but I found the cars passing soothing.

I had a great stay at Moxy in Santa Barbara! The room was spacious, clean, modern and a great value for the price. The location is perfect, ideal for exploring local breweries and wine tasting rooms. The staff was incredibly friendly and professional, making check-in a breeze. I loved the unique vibe of the hotel. The check-in area is a bar and the lobby doubles as a game room. There’s also a commercial fridge, microwave, and complimentary coffee, tea, and even dog treats for all guests, which I thought was a nice touch. Overall, Moxy was a great choice for my stay and if I ever visit Santa Barbara again, I'm definitely staying here.

Nice staff very good location clean rooms

This is a cute spot in a great location, but it is, in my opinion, very over priced for the value. Service was excellent, staff was great.They tell you on check in that the rooms are "European style" & "Cozy" and I'm sure they do this because people have complained. They are small room, not bad but small and boutique feeling. The bathrooms are crazy small, the shower and toilet share space and you flip a little glass door open to cover the toilet when showering. I could not turn around in the shower without the shower curtain catching me and then clinging to me... not my favorite. Very much like an RV shower in terms of space. Don't even dream of reaching all the way down to wash your feet. Additionally our room was on the freeway side and was INCREDIBLY loud with freeway directly outside of our window, all night noise. Bathroom door is glass and when my wife got up earlier than me to shower I was up too because the light from that door shines right at you in bed. Great walking area close by. The price is why I would not stay again. I might for around half the price per night if I wanted to stay on more of a budget night with less of a room, but it was WAY overpriced for what I felt we got. I found myself wishing we had chosen a different hotel.

Dorm room style room, no amenities to speak of. An awkward bathroom situation. Right next to freeway. No dining, proper breakfast etc. Didn’t fully understand from pics what was what. Not fully grasping the price/value. Other than that, nice and friendly staff, convenient to State Street, Funk Town, wharf, etc.

Check-in was disastrous, but the rest of the stay was fine. Carlos was exceptional!!!

I knew the room would be small (as we got the smallest room they had), but it was barely walkable. About 8 inches to scoot between the wall and the bed. Everything was good quality and the bed itself was comfortable, but overall not worth the price paid. Usually you can justify the price with amenities, but this location doesn’t have a hot tub, or breakfast, etc.

The rooms were nicely soundproofed in the adjoining walls. The staff was friendly and helpful. Nice casual but professional atmosphere. The shared amenities were very accessible. If you're into the SB Funk Zone this is a good place for you.

Run!! This is a hostel, it's VERY noisy and shabby. I can't believe how much they charged. i'll certainly NVER stay again.

We loved our stay at the moxie hanging out in Santa Barbara's cool beachfront weather was a relief from the heat of LA

Clearly an old hotel that was bought and renovated by Marriott. Unfortunately the renovations were surface level and clearly made with cost saving in mind. The mattresses were flimsy and caused back pain and the air conditioning unit was so noisy I could barely sleep for more than 15 minutes at a time. No headboards on the beds, just pillows hanging from a metal bar on the wall above the bed. The hotel was in a shady area close to several homeless encampments and across the street from a strip club. Will not be returning.

The decor was unique

Walls are a little thin. I could hear everything going on in the hallway or the guy throwing up in the next door bathroom. But all in all it was very nice place and would stay there again.

I stayed at this property when it was under its previous ownership which seemed much more appropriate than Marriott. Rooms are TINY, windows single pane and right next to railroad track. Pool seemed nice - didn't have time to go in but all other facilities and amenities off site. So given the price......

Lovely staff and great area for coffee, wine and exploration

Staff was really nice! The room was tiny, the bathroom missing a hanger, the bunk bed was extremely dangerous, two loose handles, ladder slide off and the steps hurt the kid feet when climbing up/down, and when the bed down, the sharp corners if not careful will split someone head/face, and one of the closer door came loose! The property was also under construction so… Way over price and a very dangerous stay.

Considering location and price expected much more. Staff unhelpful nor customer oriented. Parking at $35/night without describing why - resort fees, pool, accessories nothing

This is NOT a hotel, not even a B&B and shouldn’t be listed on this site. No food service, no staff onsite after 21:00 and excruciatingly expensive. A complete Scam.
