Balboa Inn, On the Beach

Stunning property! Fantastic location, great service and excellent offerings. We’ll be back!

Love the daily breakfast and coffee. Love the air conditioning. Love the cookies and fruit in the check in area. Love the spa. Nice and hot. Absolutely love the location. We will stay here in the future.

Muy bueno, buena ubicación lo malo es el parqueo, pero esto no hace diferencia, su personal fue muy amable y atento.

Great location and amazing staff.

We were grateful for the valet service. The room air conditioner was difficult to use. The breakfast bar was meager but grateful for the coffee. The location was good

Good

Balboa in our place for a relaxing beach retreat staff is very warm and friendly and the food is delicious here The Location in the staff

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect right near the beach and walking distance to the fun zone and shops. The Continental breakfast was ok. The room itself was clean but , was very hot and noisy at night. I think this hotel is geared towards a younger crowd but definitely worth a visit.

Superb

Position First bedroom we were offered was not good, had to pay 200 dollars to “upgrade”

The public parking for the beach was forty five dollars for twenty four hours on a standard car. You'll need a credit card and your vehicle plate number to get a permit from a digital booth. Or you could use the valet which is about the same.

Breakfast was perfect There was no pool

Room was clean, staff very helpful. The view was spectacular from our room. The hotel is a Historical landmark, probably very old, but owners are keeping it very nice.

The location is fantastic, we didn't take our car out once. Very walkable everywhere on the boardwalk to The Wedge Park, took the ferry over to Balboa Island and walked around the whole island, the Pier is there with Ruby's restaurant at the end, a lot of food options around, a park next door. All of the staff were so helpful and friendly. The hotel and area is also very dog-friendly so we took our dog everywhere with us. The property itself is a little dated, could use some new furniture and bathroom fixtures. We had an issue with our room card keys, which became an inconvenience, but staff resolved the issue. Valet parking was only $10 more/day than the public lot across the boardwalk, in a covered and secure garage, so it was worth it for us. Overall, we really enjoyed our long weekend stay and would definitely stay again if in the area.

We were upgraded to a corner balcony with a perfect view of the Entrance to the Balboa Pier and a beautiful Full moon that shown on the water! Also, it was Prom Night and there were gorgeous Ball Gowns on all the lovely young ladies with there very handsome and well-behaved young men!

Superb
