Lovely hotel in a great location. Easy walk to beach or State Street. Across the street from a large park. Front desk was very helpful with local recommendations for sightseeing and food. Very friendly staff all around. Free continental breakfast. Very safe and free parking. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Staying here is not an experience I will repeat as by the time I left the hotel I just had a bad taste in my mouth for how nickle-and-dimed I felt.
The staff was great, the room was clean and well furnished, the bed was comfortable, the cookie at check in was memorable, and the view was beautiful
However, from the undisclosed parking fee ($15 per day) and the $4 water bottles; everywhere I turned I felt like there was something I could add on to my stay that should have just been included. My room was over $200 per night and I am not planning on coming back.
To the hotel owners: figure out how to get validation codes for the only available parking for your own hotel and comp a couple water bottles. It’s the little things that make people want to come back.

What's not to like about brand new hotel? Everything is good except:
The plumbing noise. I can hear the noise whenever my next door room takes shower.
The Continental breakfast can get a little upgrade. Everything else in the hotel has a premium feel except for the breakfast. It looks like something from holiday inn Express.

Good location and easy parking. No clock in the room and we both really hate duvets as they are so heavy and irritate our arthritis. Otherwise, excellent room & overall facility.

La Playa was a nice find for us. Newly upgraded rooms, outdoor sitting area and parking included.
Convenient to the beach, Stevens Wharf, and easy walking to numerous restaurants and shopping.
La Playa will definitely be in the list for the next time we’re in SB.
