Pros: I loved the warm spirit of all the staff. I have stayed nearby many times and when I could not get the reseravations for the 10days I needed, I went directly to Bookings.com, as we found you to be so accurate when we travels Europe year bfore last. I was not dissapointed. I grew up in Santa B arabaraSince I have ot go to Want aBarabar reuguarlry now, I plan to stay there again. It is funky but comfortable and within easy walkign distance of the Marina, the Wharf and downtonw SB. Great acces to super restuarants. I hate being nickeld and dimed,so I love that the bottleed water was free in the hospitality basket, filled with fruit, fresh baked bread &lots of goodies. Also they have free biclyles you can use, beach chairs, towles,ect

Pros: We wanted a to stay somewhere special for the last night of our holiday and we got exactly tht with this hotel. We booked a standard queen room but were fortunate to be upgraded to the Fireside Suite. This has a sitting room, king sized bedroom and two bathrooms, all beautifully decorated and with solid oak furniture. The hotel provides a luxury breakfast, complimentary bottle of champagne in the room, cheese & wine in reception early evening and milk and cookies at bedtime. A beautiful hotel and we'd happily stay there again - even without an upgrade.
