Didn't use the amenities but every room faces the pool and it looked crystal clear. Lots of patrons out there enjoying it. The room was clean, although fixtures were a little old but didn't mind that. Overall, was a great value and a comfortable stay. I would definitely come back.

Lemon Tree Inn is beautiful place with a lot of trees and a cute patio with a nice restaurant on-site. When came to SNta Barbara for a short getaway for 2 nights! Staff is cordial and room is clean and spacious! A heated pool is a plus and free self parking and wifi. You can also drive a few miles to get to Stearns Wharf and enjoy the shops, food, and bars on State St. We will come back again with our extended family!
