6/10 Good

Pros: recently renovated, beautiful updated rooms, super dog friendly (even offered dog beds), great location right on State St (quick walk to beach or funk zone). Cons: the hotel is located next door to a few bars, the bass from the DJ was SO loud at night. I would highly recommend bringing ear plugs (the front desk didn’t have any). Also the air conditioning was acting up so in the mornings while we were getting ready the room temp was 74 and muggy. Lastly, room service is only provided upon request, which we didn’t realize until we came back at dinner time to a dirty room and inquired. Overall nice hotel, would have enjoyed more with ear plugs and functional AC.

A nice getaway from LA.
Really enjoyed the staff, from valet Cruz and the front counter, each person was helpful and personable. The room was very fresh, great price, however it never reached 72 degrees, which was a bit of a downer. Bed was very comfortable and bathroom was efficient and very clean. We were close to everything we wanted to see or dine on this Thanksgiving getaway. We will be back.

Perfect!
Renovated rooms are very nice! This is an older property that is finishing 1st floor renovation, but that didn't impact our stay at all. Location is perfect for walking to the best of State Street.

Fire Alarm Woke Me Up 🤕
It was upsetting that when booking I wasn't informed that this hotel was under construction. I received a notification after I had booked. I went to rest and was awoken by the fire alarm going off. Very unpleasant.

Will stay at Hotel SB again in the future
I've stayed in this hotel before. I had a nice visit. There are renovations going on, and that was an inconvenience, but the staff did their best under the circumstances. I plan to stay at this hotel again in the future.

Staff was super friendly, welcoming and helpful! Perfect location so you can walk to everything in the downtown, Funkzone, and waterfront areas. So many great amenities from sparkling wine at check-in, ice water/tea in the lobby, fresh baked cookies, bathrobes and slippers, free reusable water bottles, water filling stations, and so much more. The rooms were perfectly decorated and beautiful.
