The Radisson is going down hill! We have been going there for past 5 years every time we visit town. Our last visit we noticed much “riff raff” who are visiting the lounge area and being very loud and obnoxious. So much so to the point a man was so intoxicated he started a verbal argument cussing at our female friend. My husband did his best to diffuse the situation and get him away from all of us and the man wanted to fight. We are so disgusted with how much the once great Radisson has changed. No hotel security when they know they have a bar open late on Friday and Saturday night. When police showed up they said they have many calls to the Radisson and many cars have been broken into.

The room was fine, but curiously, no clock. Bathroom looked like the maintenance guy went crazy with the caulking gun. $10 to park a car? Really, in Santa Maria? Crazy. Then, went down for breakfast and the waiter called in sick, so the cook was serving and cooking. We could not order off the menu as they had no way to take a credit card or charge the room. To their credit, they did give us free coffee and waffles. They do take dogs, which is a plus. They do have a bar and dinner service. Prices were reasonable and the food was tasty.

Great place to overnight on the long drive between San Francisco and Los Angeles. While the % freeway is slightly faster, the 1010 route (with the last part to SF on 280) is much calmer and pleasanter. I love the historic photos and comfortable rooms and a delightful garden and pool. Don't expect gourmet food anywhere in Santa Maria but the Cantonese restaurant directly across the street is pleasant and certainly inexpensive. The big bar with its fireplace and the fireplace in the lobby are also pleasant for relaxing. The one substantial drawback is that the rooms facing the rear are awakened before 7 am by the city garbage trucks which for some reason they have not arranged to lave arrive later.

We stayed here one night when traveling, in the Arkansas room. Two queen beds. Room was clean. Noticed when trying to shower that the tiny bottles of conditioner were empty, used by last guest which was kind of icky. But they brought new ones to room pretty much instantly when I called. Every place can have snafus, but how fast they are remedied says more to me than the mistake. The bathroom was large and convenient for families, with a separate room for toilet, a separate vanity with bench seat to do hair and makeup, a shower with opaque curtain, and a single sink with mirror and counter space. There were noisy footsteps from unit abcve which didnt stop until an hour after our bedtime, but the room was otherwise quiet. Small pool, we didn’t use. The breakfast was good, though some items ran out early. Cappuccino maker was nice and available all day, which I appreciated when our departure was delayed due to tire trouble. The lobby is fancy with a hige chandelier, piano and plenty of seating. When we were leaving, a housekeeping staff member came up to us and pointed out we had a flat tire. We had AAA refill the tire and we drove to Gonzales tire shop a few blocks away. They were able to remove nail, patch tire, and it only cost us $20. So grateful to staff for alerting us as we were headed back to freeway to get to our destination. The rate seemed quite high but the rates everywhere along 101 were high when we traveled, and at least they have free parking and the free breakfast. We would stay there again.

Convenient location affordable and friendly staff. Accessible internet, pool, beverage machine and ice. Restaurants and stores near by. Hotel provided brochures for local attractions and nearby beaches

Arrived in the evening, the town is very quiet, quiet to terrible, hahahaha. Highway 1 must pass through the town, and wifi can only receive signals from the lobby. Free parking
