us James 25 April 2023
Had an amazing Xmas holiday at a beachfront hotel. Really appreciated the delicious complimentary breakfast and the free bike rental to explore the surrounding area. The fabulous location right next to the beach and pier is just amazing. Plus, the lovely room view of the sun setting over the ocean was just breathtaking.
Although the food was alright, it was overpriced and limited in options. The long lines for reception were frustrating as we waited awhile to be attended.

Plenty of extra supplies: a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a safe and a coffee machine. The place is 0.5 miles away from Santa Barbara downtown. Amazing base for a 3-night stay.

We had a king room and it included central heating, a microwave oven and a sitting area. A wide array of restaurants to eat close by, like Saigon Vietnamese that was only 15 minutes' walk away...
