I almost feel bad letting the secret out. What a great spot for a budget weekend getaway to SB! They gave us a free bottle of wine at check in. We had a view of the mountains out our window. It was a nice walk along the beach to the funk zone! And the best part was that we could have our dog stay for free!

The room was very clean and had great MCM ambiance. The location was excellent-- just steps from the beach and the property was very quiet during the evening hours. The only reason I didn't give a perfect review is that the hand soap was not filled prior to our visit.
