"Safe, location. The stairs to second floor are few. Clean rooms. No iron, need to ask for it at front desk, which is far away from where I was room 250. Quiet room. Will stay again. Pool looks lovely. Great location if visiting the best beach on earth. Lovely town. Near everything."

9/10 Wonderful! (2,424 reviews)
"The property was as described, clean, very nice rooms. Was it worth over $400 per night- no, but that’s pretty typical of SB. Great location near the harbor, walkable to west beach, downtown, funk zone, etc. Hot tub was a great bonus."
