Amazing! My mom and I had always walked past this spot on previous stays in SB and wanted to stay there just based on the fact they had fire pits! We finally did with a group of friends and it was wonderful! The fire pits were nice and we drank wine outside, listened to live music, and had a wonderfully great stay! The staff were nice and the rooms were clean and quiet.

Gorgeous grounds, fine but underwhelming room.
The hotel’s location is amazing and the grounds are really beautiful and welcoming. The room itself was underwhelming. It was fine enough but not quite as expected. It felt outdated. The phone and one bedside light weren’t working and the shower gel bottle in the shower was empty. We had mixed customer service experiences with some being very helpful and others pointing me back and forth to each other but not stepping up to resolve a question. This place is beautiful and has a lot of potential, but missed the mark for us on this occasion.

Just an average hotel - it’s like they have taken an old hotel and tried to make it fashionably. The location is great however and right by the beach.

Love this property , especially that it’s pet friendly, everyone is very nice, which they had self parking , but not huge problem. Location is exceptional. The only downside i found myself is i payed extra for an upgrade, but i didn’t see the difference between the last time I reserved basic to this time doing the upgrade. Rooms are still great tho.

Excellent Staff but Disappointing Room
The hotel staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. The location was perfect, with beautiful views from our room. Our only complaint was with the room itself. It did not look like the pictures and felt older and dated compared to the pictures we saw online. The bed was on the harder side, and so were the pillows. After the first night, we asked the front desk for softer pillows, and they graciously provided two perfect pillows. Lastly, the room felt dark and dingy. The hotel is big so there is a chance not all rooms will be the same. But for the price we paid, we expected a better room.

Awful and overpriced
This hotel is extremely overpriced for what you get. The room was dingy and needed repairs. There was a smushed dead bug on the wall that housekeeping never cleaned. There’s no soundproofing so you can hear everything coming from the connecting rooms, even normal conversations. The street noise was also very loud. The tub/shower combo was missing a second door so the bathroom floor gets soaked every time you take a shower. The hot tub bleached our bathing suits from too much chemicals. Marketing photos of this hotel are a catfish, don’t fall for it!
