Best Hidden Gem of an Inn!
We had a wonderful stay at Surf City Inn. We booked a room to celebrate our one year anniversary & my birthday. The morning of our check-in, I received a text saying our room was ready so we can arrive at any time. It was a beautiful room and the complex was very quiet. The location is very convenient; one side of the Inn is a marina & across the street is the beach. Plus, within a couple of miles there are grocery stores, Tesla charging stations, a movie theatre and lots of restaurants & stores. The staff was very kind & cheerful, and the room was very clean. We will definitely stay here again. * Side note: 30 minutes away is one of those Christmas Decoration neighborhoods. We had a blast there.

Extremely noisy place!! Hollering and shouting outside my door and above me was some sort of construction going on. I tried to get some rest but it was impossible so I checked out after being there for only two hours (and yes they still charge me fully) And why a $150 security deposit on a little motel off PCH!!??? It’s not Vegas! I do not recommend.;(

NO ELEVATORS!!!!!!
I had a big problem, there is no elevator. I had to help walk my 81 year old mom up the stairs to the 3rd floor then walk back down to help my 71 year old dad who recently had a stroke he even lost his footing climbing up and fell into the wall. Then back down a 3rd time to get the luggage. NO WHERE IN THE BOOKING DOES IT SAY NO ELEVATORS!!! The next morning I went to let the front desk know we could stay there with no elevators she informed me that we would be getting charged a day because we didn’t give her 24 hour notice of us leaving and yet we hadn’t even been checked in for 24 hours.

Our experience at Surf City Inn was good overall and I definitely think it's worth the price for a stay. I'll go through my fair and sincere pros and cons in hopes that it'll be helpful. Pros: - Walking distance to Sunset Beach, which was quiet, beautiful and not at all busy. At certain times of day, you can see dolphins swimming 20-30ft from the shore! - Loved the food and drink options nearby (especially Tacos Surf, Himalayan Grill and Luv Collective café!) - Very reasonable price - Right on the Pacific Coast Highway, with nearby OC Transit bus stops that can take you to Huntington Beach or Long Beach - Microwave and mini fridge right in the room - Let us check in early at no extra cost Cons: - The inn is a bit old and showing its age. The rooms were clearly recently renovated, but because it's not a recently built building, noise carries pretty easily. You can hear footsteps above you and voices from other rooms, especially if they're speaking loudly - We found multiple black hairs near our pillows and under the covers when we first showed up—I'm blonde and my partner has short brown hair, so these very much weren't ours - Smoke alarm goes off easily from the steam of a shower That said, we loved being able to stay so close to the coast for a very reasonable price. We weren't looking for luxury anyway!

I was extremely pleased staying here. I got a text that I was able to check in way earlier than the listed check in time which we appreciated greatly! Bed is extremely comfy, the area has lots of restaurants and close to the beach which is what we went for. Will come back here.

Family vacation
Clean and spacious. Worked well for my family (me, wife, toddler) and staff was very friendly and easy for check in & out. The only thing I would recommend would be changing the shower system with rain shower head. I am a tall guy, and it was very hard to rinse off. No complaints otherwise!
