Great location for a stay in SB. We walked everywhere (other than the day we were picked up to bike ride through nearby Santa Ynez Valley for wine tasting). Breakfast and wine and cheese happy hour included. Clean, quiet and comfortable. Loved how many rooms had outdoor seating to relax on property. Pool area was nice with ample seating as well.

Made reservations online and arrived 40 minutes later. Clerk was prepping reservation as we walked in. We had been at the airport for 12 hours and had flight cancelled. He went and got us a glass of wine, even though happy hour was over. It was the first nice thing that had happened since 6:45am!!!

Me and my husband loved it. The only issue I saw is the smoke that was probably coming from the boat port that was access the hotel

West Beach Inn was a great place to stay to enjoy Santa Barbara and relax. Very friendly staff, great location, and comfortable room. Hot coffee available 24 hours in the lobby was a huge plus for this PNW coffee addict. The continental breakfast was perfectly adequate (I mean that in a good way) and they wine and cheese happy hour was very nice. Excellent restaurants within walking distance and adequate parking. The only negative is that there is a lot of road noise from West Cabrillo Blvd. Likely not as issue if you don't have a room with a marina view that overlooks the water and marina.

The hotel is walking distance to the pier. We stayed on the upper floor suite. It is spacious and complete with amenities. Beds are comfortable. We got to use the roll out and sofa beds (which are already made). We also have a designated parking spot which made it very convenient. Three things for improvement: overall smell of the suite, the cleanliness of the sofa (we had to use wipes to remove some grease smudges on the sofa and found chip crumbs when we opened the sofa bed), and not enough partition in the shower to keep the water from spraying out on the bathroom floor keeping the towel mat soaked. Overall, we had a pleasant stay. The staff were helpful, warm, and they made us feel valued. Thank you.
