Holiday Inn Express & Suites Carpinteria by IHG

Loved the location; the hotel was close to the beach and had fun shops and restaurants to walk to and explore. The facility was clean, had plenty of parking. Staff was great. I also love how there was complimentary breakfast with plenty of seating in the dining area. My family also enjoyed the hot tub and the heated pool. Also ice machines and amenities like the gym were easy to find. We also thought that entrances to hotel were great; the hotel had various doors with key card entrances available other than main lobby entrance.

Conveniently close to restaurants, grocery store and the beaches. Rooms were large with a sitting area and a work station. Bedding was exceptionally clean and comfortable - I’m going to order a pillow online. It was that good. The bathroom was equipped with well placed grab bars and also had a fold out shower bench. Landscaping was well maintained. Parking had a choice of covered spots. The lobby was inviting with several seating arrangements. It contained a small library and a small concession area. Breakfast was plentiful with many choices. Breakfast staff was attentive and nice. I had requested an upstairs room facing west and was accommodated. Rooms facing the opposite direction would had freeway noise since the property is located next to the 101. My room was quiet.

The breakfast selection was great! Breakfast timing was excellent. Indoor and outdoor seating was excellent. Laundry facility on site was an excellent option. Rooms were very clean.

The room was clean. The beds were comfortable.

Spacious and clean room. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good pool area. Good cold and hot breakfast options. Tea and coffee available all day.
