The Franciscan Hotel

8/10 Good
"It is in a perfect walkable location in SB. We picked it because they allow dogs and the room is actually perfect to have dogs! Little kitchen, which makes feeding them easy. Also spacious! We brought a Great Dane and there was plenty of room :) Bed was pretty comfy and room has AC and a nice bathroom. The only thing I didn’t love was the noise. You can hear the people above you, but a sound machine helps! Honestly despite the noise, would stay here again ;)"
