Seal beach one night stay

The check in process was simple. The room was clean enough. Very noisy heater that you would not be able to sleep with it on.

Didn’t care for the shower. Shower head was overhead. Needs at least one more grab bar. Only one exit—in case of fire and door not accessible, it’s about a 20 foot drop to the concrete below. The staff personnel were very nice.

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.
