Many housekeeping staff commute daily from nearby Ventura. You're not
suggesting that those myriad Montecito and Hope Ranch mansions are un
staffed, are you?


I think in a hotel, the situation would be better than for newspapers,
that's for sure.


There's little question that there are an adequate number of domestic
workers to staff a hotel; after all, the Pilot House Motel is already
currently staffed.

The city has plans to expand the airport terminal, so they must
predict an increase in traffic. Santa Barbara draws allot of tourists
year round, and it's a favorite getaway for Los Angelinos. The
Channel Islands National Park is just off shore. The Danish tourist
town of Solvang is just inland, and the area has become a major wine
producing region that draws wine tasting oenophiles far and wide.
There's a new casino in nearby Santa Ynez. Even the western Monarch
butterfly population over winter along the Santa Barbara coast. A
million winged flyers can't be wrong. :-)

But seriously, the Pilot House Motel really needs someone to renovate
and bring it up to its potential. Every motel/hotel in town is
totally booked during the summer, and the cheapest room you can find
anytime (with the exception of the sleazy Motel-6 at $80/night) is
over $100/night. There's lots of factual information about Santa
Barbara he http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_B...%2C_California

Don't let your children find out you're considering Santa Barbara;
they'll make the decision for you.
