Outstanding beachfront property. We enjoyed the complementary happy hour, with self pour bar, nice continental breakfast, but with fresh berries. Pool and hottub were nice, rooms were clean and quiet, and the beds were comfortable.

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.

The West Beach Inn is right on the main road fronting Santa Barbara harbor and beach. It is conveniently walkable to the main part of downtown Santa Barbara and the pier, where the shops and restaurants are located. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and neat, and the property was well maintained. Best of all, the room rates were lower than some of the more expensive hotels located closer to the pier and downtown area.

Basic stay close to beach and downtown.

Great location, nice amenities. Would have liked a gym. The pool was good and the Continental breakfast was appreciated. A little pricey for such a minimalist place, but you pay for location.

Nice location by the beach. Has good common areas. Breakfast was decent. They ran out of batter for waffles quite early (Should prepare ahead). One small thing: the bathroom smelled a bit damp (not sure if the vent was running with weak flow).
