We enjoyed almost everything about it. Not in love with the typical morning breakfast buffets however. The eggs in omelettes the first day were scorched - way overdone. It would be nice for one of these hotels to get more creative with this whole thing. And their coffee is terrible. That may not be a big deal to some, but it wrecked my morning experience everyday. Very bittier coffee - both the light and dark roasts.

Très bon emplacement juste à 30 minutes des plages et en même temps à la montagne. Beau jardin qui donne directement sur les collines, de même pour la piscine!

The hotel offers free parking, clean sheets, good pillows, and very comfortable beds; all of which were greatly appreciated. The backyard design and layout were also quite charming and added a nice touch to the overall atmosphere.
However, the sound insulation between rooms definitely needs improvement. I was woken up at 4 a.m. by a couple having a normal conversation in the next room, and I could clearly hear them for at least 30 minutes. It wasn’t loud or disruptive on their part—the walls are just that thin.
The free breakfast was decent, nothing special, but it did the job.
Overall, it was a mostly pleasant stay, but better soundproofing would make a big difference.

Breakfast was terrible most foods where empty they only had a couple selections. The front desk clerk guy seem he didn't want to be here. The lady at the breakfast cleaning the tables wasn't very friendly people would say good morning and she looked at them as they passed. The beds were very relaxing and clean .

** Friendly team & great extras, but some upgrades and maintenance needed!
I stayed at the Hampton Inn & Suites Buellton/Santa Ynez Valley for two nights and really liked the location, easy parking, and the little conveniences—24/7 coffee/tea/hot water in the lobby and a solid complimentary breakfast. The staff were friendly and helpful, which I appreciate. The property and room were clean.
That said, the room I received had visible mold spots on the bathroom ceiling (photo attached). Also, the bath/shower sliding door scraped/stuck every time we closed it, leaving wood shavings/debris by the door track (photo attached). Additionally, the in-room furniture and beds could use an upgrade—the mattress felt like mostly springs with very little cushioning/support. None of this felt unsafe, but it falls short of Hampton standards and hurts the overall experience.
If these maintenance items are addressed, this would be a very easy recommend because the value, location, and service are already there.
Bottom line: Great people and perks; please tighten up room maintenance and consider updating beds/furniture.
