Social Stays

Sleep on State Street without the Santa Barbara price tag. Social Stays is a pod hostel at 730 State Street, right in the middle of downtown — the bars, restaurants, and nightlife of State Street are right outside, and the beach is close by.

You get your own sleeping pod rather than a dorm bunk: Keypad entry and no curfew mean you set your own schedule — perfect when the show runs late.

Free Wi-Fi throughout, and linens plus a towel are included.

Concert at the Santa Barbara Bowl? It's about 1.5 miles away — roughly a five-minute drive — so we're a solid base for gig nights and event weekends.

Come for the affordable bed in an expensive town, stay for the downtown location. Meet fellow travelers, wander out onto State Street, crash in your pod. See you soon.

hostel offers a communal experience with private pods that each provide a personal locker, night light, electrical plugs, shelves, and a TV with Roku. We have 12 twin pods and 4 queen pods in this location.

There are 3 beautifully tiled restrooms, with 2 showers and ceiling speakers. The kitchen has a commercial fridge, ice maker, dishwasher, and tabletop appliances. The mezzanine offers a private TV room, with workstations and 2 computers to use.

Our business hours are 10 am-11 pm daily.

10 pm-10 am is quiet hours so please be courteous of other guests as you come & go. We do not allow anyone to enter the property without a reservation.
