An outdoor pool with a hot tub is featured at Franciscan Inn Santa Barbara. Modern amenities like a flat-screen TV and free WiFi are provided in all rooms.

Styled in subtle coloured floral or off-white bedding, all rooms feature a contemporary feel and an iPod docking station at Franciscan Inn. The staff was amazing! They were very friendly and accommodating. We loved the location as it was just down the street from the beach and boardwalk. The hotel was extra clean, and the rooms were very nice. We especially enjoyed using the hot tub at night. Another bonus is that fresh baked cookies are available in the lobby each day. A perfect place to stay!
