The hotel is so lovely, I really enjoy smaller hotels with personality and vintage style, fabric headboards, crown molding, beautiful tile. It is under a bit of construction and our room overlooked the scaffold and parking lot which was a bummer. The staff is very accommodating and thoughtful - they agreed to switch our rooms, and sent me a bottle of wine and chocolates for my birthday! I loved being able to walk out o to the Main Street for shopping and dining. I will stay in this hotel again.

Every thing is good, except there’s no self parking. Valet parking is unnecessary and inconvenient, as the parking lot is just across the street.

Absolutely excellent location of this beautiful hotel Room, lobby, hallways were impeccable. Right on the main shopping and dinning street in SB. 10 minute walk to the beach. Excellent dinning options. The classic Spanish style building is gorgeous and although they are remodeling the rooms it’s unlikely you will see or hear anything. The place is impeccable. The staff is courteous and professional.

Under construction, homeless bums on the sidewalk, mandatory $30parking , ancient slow elevator, no pool, worst Starbucks in the world is down the block but it has no tables or chairs or bathrooms and stinks. Hotel has zero charm. Certainly not the four stars it claims on line. Shower is ridiculous and mold behind the bathroom faucet.
