Everything was conveniently close. I especially appreciated the included breakfast buffet in the mornings and happy hour in the afternoons. The only thing is that the bathroom was really outdated and very old looking. It looked dirty but it wasn’t.

Great location - close enough to the beach but far away enough from the partying. We walked from the Amtrak station and used the downtown waterfront service mostly to get around with our toddler.

Decided to take a quick one day vacation to Santa Barbara with the wife . First time staying at Beachside Inn and it was a nice comfortable accommodation for us. Booked a King Balcony room harbor side view and it was pleasantly refreshing to spend some time out of the room unwinding for the evening. I chose Beachside Inn because of the previous guest positive reviews and true to what I read the hotel did not disappoint.

The Beachside Inn is very conveniently located, within easy walking distance of the beach and boardwalk. We were happy with our room and with the breakfast buffet, and the Italian restaurant next door is excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful. We would go back!

Checking in was fast and friendly. The property and room was clean and in a great location. I loved that free parking and breakfast was included instead of being nickeled and dimed for everything. The breakfast buffet had a good selection. But the Wifi they offered was unsecured and their “business center” is literally a computer located in the middle of the lobby. It made it more difficult for me to get the couple of business things I planned to do because I can’t risk using an unsecured line.

The only dislike from my stay was that the AC in my first room didnt work and got moved to another room and that AC barely worked. The staff were awesome and super helpful. Overall I loved my stay even without a working AC at night we just opened the windows and enjoyed the ocean breeze.
