This place was a great stay! Great location- close to the beach and walkable to State St. The room was very clean and spacious, and the bed was comfortable. The Spanish style architecture and landscape added to our wonderful stay. Although breakfast is not served, there are complementary cookies, fruit and coffee. A definite stay next time we are in Santa Barbara.

The hotel is in a great location and it is newly renovated. We were right outside the pool, however on the first floor, which did made it feel a lot less private and the walls were thin, but all in all it was a very good stay.

My stayed in the Mason Inn Beach was amazing! I came with my family to celebrate my birthday and I got the most pleasant time at this property. The moment I checked in the staff was very welcoming and friendly, the property looks clean sharp and amenities are very comfortable. Perfect stay for families, vacations and getaways. I highly recommend the Mason Inn Beach, close to the beach and the downtown SB.

The place itself is small and nice, the room appeared clean but had a dusty smell and I found 2 spiders. It was a nice room overall and the pool was nice but not sure if it’s cleaned daily. Staff was nice, overall it was a decent stay.

Such a cute hotel and perfectly located within walking distance of the beach. They accommodated our request to check in early. They also gave us two free drinks upon arrival. The room was cute and clean with great AC. We only stayed one night but would have liked to stay a few more days. They had coffee available in the lobby as well as some snacks. The staff was great.
