I’ve bunked at a lot of hostels and I can’t say enough good things about this place! Both the staff and guests are super friendly and respectful! It’s the cleanest hostel I’ve stayed in, it’s reasonably priced, comfy beds, the location can’t be beat, as it’s in walking distance to just about everything, and the free breakfasts are legit!

The 5 star reviews are fake, scroll down, even their own employees leave 1 star reviews. This place is beyond unprofessional it's dangerous. Stay anywhere else.

What a great hostel! You can tell from the way the guests interact with one another in the common spaces & by the way the staff & guests interact with one another that this hostel cares about its staff 7 its guests. Clean, friendly, safe, affordable. So many fantastic spaces to be, to read, to eat, to write, to engage with others. I had several really good conversations with guests from China & France & the US. Want to return for another visit soon!

Super comfortable. Couldn't imagine a better location. Save money on the hotel and splash out at Loquita down the street. Literally skip and a jump to the water. Right off State Street. Staff was incredible. You can't go wrong, and I'm someone who is over Hostels but but will definitely stay again

My trip to California had some last minute changes so I stayed here for a few nights. The staff were AMAZING! Between them, the accommodations and other guests, I felt at home despite being very far from it. I would 1000% recommend staying here. As well, I already plan to stay there next time I’m visiting Santa Barbara.

One of the best places I’ve ever stayed in. Amazing people, really building a community there! The hostel is visually pleasing, great common room, full size kitchen and free breakfast in the morning.The place is also impeccable, clean, cleaned every day.I would chose it to any hotel, great experience!

Highly recommended. The hostel is social and great. There's a good social vibe, yet still respectful of keeping a quiet space for everyone to sleep.Staff are all friendly helpful, and big shout out to Davey B and Reuben for a great night of entertainment!There's a variety of social events throughout the week, from film nights, music nights, shared cooking nights, to drinking, alongside daytime events!Location is great so do stay here if in the Santa Barbara area.

I didn’t actually stay here as I had to cancel my reservation due to car troubles on the way over, but they were very understanding given the circumstances of my experience. Also they were very accommodating of other requests I had made. Would definitely book with them again and recommend to others.

Amazing hostel! This went above and beyond all expectations and I would gladly stay here again rather than a hotel or airbnb. Extremely clean and well kept. Amazing indoor and outdoor areas and super easy to walk to State street or the beach. Breakfast was good too!

This hostel is pretty decent place to stay if you are traveling on budget. Fairly clean, great location, breakfast included.They hold nightly activities throughout the week. I happened to stay the night they had BBQ (burgers and hotdogs) for dinner, I enjoyed the burger and asked if I could get a second one. One of the staff nodded and confirmed there was enough for everyone. However, the girl responsible for serving food refused to get me second burger and instead offered a hotdog.When I was picking the hotdog, she asked a group of guests if they wanted more burgers !!! I found it very upsetting and discriminating. It is NOT ok to treat guests differently, we are all humans deserve respect. Any guest needs to feel welcome.

Didn’t think I’d have to be writing this review, but here we are. I feel disgusted with my experience here. For reference, I was staying in a private room with my boyfriend. One afternoon after coming back from the beach, I was changing in what I thought was the comfort of my room. The blinds happened to be cracked open when I saw an older man with a white beard staring at me from outside. In shock, I ducked down to hide and the man then put his face up closer to the window to get a better view. It was only then when he saw my boyfriend get up that he backed away. I don’t want to think what could’ve happened had I been alone. I brought it to the attention of the hostel employees where they confirmed this man WORKS FOR THEM / WITH THEM. They apologized and said someone from upper management would be in contact with me, and I have yet to hear anything. That speaks volumes as to how little they actually care. I also saw the man there the next day, so clearly no action was taken. For the rest of my trip, I was obviously very on edge inside the hostel. So basically I paid $750 to be violated. Awesome.

I had a great time at "ITH Santa Barbara Beach Hostel".Friendly staff and friendly travellers. Special thanks to Rosey.+ The location is great (5 minutes walk from the beach, right next to State Street, the train station, the FlixBus stop). I recommend 🙂

Beautiful and clean! Everything you could wish for at an organized hostel right by the beach.

The windows to the women's bathroom are always WIDE open. And I mean anyone can crawl in or look in. The community fridge is full of old food and smells rotten. They also have a bus on the property for smoking but I'm pretty sure there are other illegal things that go on in there. Not worth it.

Such a Bad Ash

16:57 19 Sep 24

Unprofessional staff. Theft in the rooms. Security issues with wide open windows and allowing homeless people in the rooms.

This will be one of the best hostels of your life. Go there, and spend as many days as you can. Santa Barbara and close places are wonderful, and with perfect weather.

ITH engages in hiring discrimination and the upper management shows no concern or remorse. The one year on-site manager runs this place like it's her own and makes up her own rules.

Great place! Beds are comfy, breakfast and kitchen is nice and the staff is really helpful! You meet a lot of travelers and they have fun activities every night!

Negative: There was a male in my all-female dorm and no warning or discount was given. Other than that, it was a decent hostel with a great location.

Very nice place, modern, good looking and clean.There is a very nice vibe exactly what you expect from an hostel.Staff is very friendly and they organize some activities.Morning yoga class on the beach .. it doesn't get much better :)Even for me - it was my first class ever.Santa Barbara is also a very nice location. Where you can relax for a few days.

I stayed at ITH Santa Barbara last week and it was the best experience ever! I had been traveling California for 2 weeks, staying at hostels, and this one was by far the best one. Not only the accommodation is great, but what makes it so special is the people working there, specially Kai, she was the best host 🫶🏼I was traveling solo and the fact that they organize differe fun activities everyday makes it so much easier to connect with incredible people.The only bad thing was leaving so early 🙁

I was so nervous since I lost my car key. The staffs are so willing to help. The bed is clean. Nice and neat. Great place to stay. Also, feel very safe. One of the best hostel I have ever stayed in my life

Ella

Really nice and cozy hostel. The rooms are very clean. I stayed in the all female dorm and even though there was a lot of bunks they are set up well with curtains and sturdy frames that it felt super quiet and private. The bathrooms are cleaned and well maintained. Big lockers for storing stuff are provided in the hallway, which requires a bit of manoeuvring so as to not get in anyone’s way.Free breakfast was great and coffee is available all day. The kitchen is fab - best stocked kitchen I’ve seen at a hostel, and it’s easy to cook here.Staff are great, they go out of their way to make you feel welcome and include you in events.It’s an expensive choice but I had a great time!

I stayed here for just one night and only wish I could've stayed longer! This hostel is clean, quiet, super laid back, and has a perfect location close to the beach and the Amtrak station.The kitchen is a bit cramped when multiple people are trying to cook, but the amenities in the kitchen are great! They offer pancakes and fruit in the morning as well as eggs to make yourself.The hostel has a very nice outdoor area with plenty of seating in the sun or under umbrellas in the shade.The beds are very comfortable. Since the bunks are built into the wall they don't wiggle at all when someone above/below you is getting in/out of bed. The curtains are a huge plus. I got a fantastic night's sleep after a super long day of driving. The hostel can get a bit warm, but they have windows open and large box fans in the rooms. I kept my curtain cracked a few inches to let in air.Overall, I would absolutely stay here again. Kudos to the staff who are friendly and very helpful!!
