DO NOT GO THERE! FORGOT STUFF THERE AND THEY WERE TAKEN AWAY!
We stayed at this place and I can describe it as ok overall, the room was ok. They don't offer breakfasts and there is no time coutersey. We forgot a polo shirt, a male jacket and a female jacket inside the room's closed and they were not able to retrive them for us. We called on the same day after we realized we had forgotten our stuff and the girl who picked the phone was rather rude and wouldnt ler us explain what happened said was going to call the next day and didn't call. When we called back and spoke to the supervisor he basically

It was ok.
Pros: The inn had great service from check-in, checkout and cleaning. Within walking distance to lots of great tasting rooms and restaurants.
Cons: The hotel itself could probably do with a renovation to its floors/ceilings. We were on the first floor and heard someone's intimate performance from upstairs.
Book here when it's around $150-180 range. It's a cute hotel where I booked two rooms for the weekend. I'm sure there are other redeeming qualities like the heated pool we didn't get to try.

Rarely if ever have I written a 1 star review but Mason Beach Inn earned it. I do not recommend anyone stay here or give this place there money. Had I not already committed $$ and faced cancellation charges I would have found another hotel. Issues. Flew to SB from PDX. Arrived at MBI at 1230 p on a Wednesday- asked to check in early. Miguel said would be extra $45 to check in before 3p. Rooms were available parking lot empty. I said no thank you. At 230 p came back to MBI and the clerk said to check in before 3p would be $50 extra. I said no. At 315p I checked in. Room had terrible pillows. Rock

I woke up to a charge of $284.00 at the Mason Beach Inn despite waking up in my bed in Oklahoma. I called the hotel and lied to me and said it was only an authorization and would fall off. She said she didn't even have to give me her name. If you like fraud and lies, please go to the Mason Beach Inn. I have contacted my bank and the police.

We really wanted to enjoy our stay here for our 9th anniversary. Great location within walking distance of the beach and pier. Nice restaurants right around the corner. Free parking! But you can tell the staff didn't take enough time to clean the room. For the price of the room, I shouldn't have to wipe down the toilet because it has dried blood (or worse, ) still on the rim. The comforter in between the sheets had old (probably) blood stains on them. If you can't get stains out, the blankets should be thrown completely out. The sink also didn't appear to be properly cleaned

We loved it! It was our second time in Santa Barbara, but our first time spending the night in Santa Barbara. Everything is within walking distance! The beach, State St for shopping.. Room was spacious.. hotel has a parking lot.. Pool and hot tub were open till late, and that made us the only persons using it.. Staff at the front desk was very friendly! Would definitely stay here again! Stayed here Sept 2019

We were prevented from checking into our room at 3:51 because they were "tweaking" the air conditioning and because we were early for the 4 pm check in time. So we left our bags and went for a long walk and dinner. When we returned, the air still did not work and we were not allowed to change rooms. The front desk person said there were no other rooms even though the sign out front showed vacancy and the hotel's website had several rooms available. We prepaid for our room on a third party site and clearly had the worst room in the place (overlooking the stairwell). Buyer beware.

We needed to find a last minute place to stay and called the front desk and they had one room left! We were in luck. When we checked in, the lady at the front desk was not wearing a mask, which was weird because there was a sign out front that said all must wear masks inside. She was very curt and not friendly, and didn't even attempt to welcome us. At least we got a room! But, the room was not much to speak about. It looked nice, but the bed was very uncomfortable and the pillows were hard as rocks. All the furniture inside seemed very cheap. The landscaping and pool were nice though! You

Great place to stay. We came out here for a weekend getaway. We got into Santa Barbara early in the am. General Manager Joseph Cisneros was amazing. He let us use the amenities, pool and offered to hold our luggage. He expedited a early cleaning and when the room was ready he came put to poolside to register us in. That is amazing customer service that goes above and beyond our expectations. The room is super clean and beautiful decor with comfortable beds. Definitely worth the stay and will stay again.

The location was the best thing about Mason Beach Inn and the service was decent however we would not recommend them to a friend and family because the room was not clean! most of the sheets had black spots which we thought was mold! we also noticed that a few soft drinks in the refrigerator were missing not sure if they were refilled! In addition, the parking was too busy.

First time staying at the Mason Beach Inn, but won't be the last I'm sure. Parking and check in was a breeze, after being on the road for 5 1/2 hours, appreciated the room being ready for us. Coffee and tea were offered in the lobby along with granola bars and snacks.
We stayed in room 219 on the 2nd floor. Glad there was an elevator for us to take up our luggage. Our room was at the end of the hallway. Didn't notice any noise until the next morning when people would use the stairs, and the firedoor next to our room.
Loved the decor of the room and how spacious it was with the two

Well, first a couple of positives. The inn location is great walking distance to beach and not too far from State St. I did find inn to be nice as pics. After our long drive to SB my wife and I were looking forward to checking in to our room but was told it wouldn't be ready for hour and a half. Which put us to a 6:20 pm check in! This has never happened to us anywhere. We were told that they were short on staff and no manager on duty. After my wife used the restroom, I noticed something on her blouse, they must of used bleach on the toilet seat which of course bleached and ruined her blouse

We had an excellent stay at the Mason Beach Inn. The rooms are trendy and the amenities/location are perfect for a weekend getaway. Parking and wifi are free for guests and there is complimentary coffee in the lobby daily. The pool is well-maintained and perfect for lounging with plenty of spots in the sun as well as the shade. Lots of gorgeous plants surround the hotel and add a lush feel to the place. The location is definitely an added perk. It's located just off the beach and within walking distance of both State Street and the wharf!
Four stars instead of five because our bathroom left

This was sent to management who appears to be non-existent. No reply. May 2021 visit.
I am writing with a complaint about my visit at your hotel.
The first night I stayed, there was no room service the next morning.
There were only 2 towels and the shower in room 212 backs up and doesn't drain, so the next person who showers has to stand in about 4" of the previous person's shower water as it takes about an hour to drain.
I went to the front desk to let them know. He said we have to request maid service if we want it. That is such a ridiculous policy for a hotel, I've never

I bought 4 Travelzoo vouchers to take a mini trip with some of my friends and finally get together after our vaccinations. We were really excited. We arrived at checkin time and the front desk girl was less than welcoming. She asked for the pins. I had purchased these vouchers months ago. She sat dryly expecting me to understand what she meant. Since I thought this was all taken care of in the reservation stage, I was confused. I had to pry out what she needed. After receiving our keys, I told my friends this clerk needed some customer service training badly. She is not cut out for face to face

Be aware, not clean for COVID-19!!!!
We went last weekend to this hotel, when we got to the room, it was apparently clean, bed was made but after looking better, the bathroom mirror was full of water marks, like someone spit on it, and we found a champagne bottle top in the bathroom! If we did not see that, we will have been expose to the virus! If the room is not properly cleaned after the guest!!!! We've complained to the office and they changed our room immediately but the hostess said to me, oh not the first time!!! Not save

Newly renovated hotel near in a good area. Parking can be a challenge when this hotel is full, but we were able to find parking luckily otherwise you'll have to find parking in the street. Room was clean and modern, only complaint is the weed smell in the hallways that it seeps into our room. We tried blocking it out with a towel by the door but last night it was strong. Wish people would smoke outside in respect to others who have pulmonary issues. Also saw the housekeeping staff not wearing their mask. Overall decent stay probably not return in the future due to the smell.

This place is really well located, not too close, not far from the beach and the restaurants at State Street; nicely and recently decorated with very good taste; and the staff is very professional and responsive. We also saw how the cleaning crew really took care of the rooms.
A couple of suggestions:
There is a pool which is open till 11:00pm so there is noise until that time. I would suggest them to close the pool around 8:00 so all the kids would be back to the rooms around 9. Or, just get yourself a room far from the pool area. The noise of the pool equipment also could be muffled.
