Santa Barbara Ocean View & Downtown Rentals — Attraction in Santa Barbara

Terrible experience living here for a year. Premium price for subpar place, and landlord doesn't care about anything except his profit. Very noisy due to thin walls and terrible windows. It gets very hot inside and there's no place to hang out outside. The views seem nice when touring but once settled in you realize the windows are terribly placed. Maintenence guy is great but landlord doesn't give him time/budget to do a good job. Out of my 12 month lease, 2 months I had no drywall in the living room for them to install "sound proofing", which didn't work at all. Another 1.5 months I was without hot water, stove, and heat because of electrical issues. And another 2 months was loud with construction. In addition, when I moved in place was dirty and I had to thoroughly clean. I cleaned at move out and left the place better than I found it, and landlord said no problem upon move out. 2.5 months later I finally get the deposit back to find he charged me a cleaning fee. Highly recommend...

Would definitely rent...

View is nice but hard to concentrate on it with the spiders coming from the walls and ceilings, yikes. Landlord doesn't care AT ALL. Still the worst rental experience ive ever had in my...
