What a LIE , At best 1.0 _ Needs to be delisted
What a lie! This property is not even close to being a 9.4 rating. Don't be fooled by those nice pictures. This place shouldn't even be on any travel website. RUN, DONT WASTE YOUR TIME. I would rather sleep on the beach. We travel alot with the kids and I have never seen a crappier motel. We just left, they wouldnt refund us, but at this point who cares. Checked in at 9pm and we left right away. No way I would let my kids sleep here. I'd rather take the lost than stay at this place. Unsafe, dirty roach motel. Look somewhere else.

We were so impressed by the hotel. The room was very clean and the location was amazing. The beach is a less than 5 minute walk. We loved staying here and hope to come back soon.

The location was great - convenient to downtown SB. The exterior was a bit tired but the rooms were updated and very clean, comfortable. Good "bang for the buck".

You cannot pull your car into a drive to check-in because there is no driveway. There is one spot on the street to use while you check-in. Construction noises at the hotel work me at 7:30. Bed was not comfortable.
