The Ocean Inn was perfect for our quick stay in Encinitas. The room was clean, bed was comfortable, was walking distance to great restaurants, and we could walk to the beach and the local farmers market. Victor and his wife run a great hotel. They are very hospitable, friendly and very knowledgeable of the local area, not to mention great... More

Lights next to bed didnt work, no ceiling fan like they said, ac in room was very very dirty on the inside! Breakfast... More

This is a great place to stay if you are OK with simple accommodations. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and the room was very clean. But the towels and pillows were not luxury. And the breakfast I would skip. But if you bring your own pillow, and are OK with simple, then this is your place.

My son was stationed at Camp Pendleton and he knew i would be travelling with a family friend so he suggested we stay outisde Oceanside. He didn't feel that Oceanside was "safe" for two women traveling alone. We chose Ocean Inn Hotel. From my very first phone call to make the reservation to our departure, I never doubted our decision.... More

My family stayed here for a weekend while attending a friend's wedding in Carlsbad. For me, the room rates are a little high for what is basically a clean and adequate place to stay for the night, although it seems like reasonable value for the area based on comparing with other places on the internet (we've never stayed in the...

We only stayed one night before moving on to more comfortable accommodations. The room was dark and cramped and had the old motel feel. Something about old motel bedspreads and decor from the 70s just creeps me out. Also, old pillows and mattresses just seem dirty to me. There was a very nice gentleman working at the front desk when... More

We booked this hotel at the last minute and most others in the area were already fully booked. The hotel was clean and a good value for the location. The bed was not super comfortable and the toilet was very loud. Thought it would be closer to the beach based on the website, but still not too bad. We arrived... More

I had positive feelings about the Ocean Inn from the minute I spoke with Victor, the manager. My daughter was being married in the San Diego area during the busiest weekend of the year due to Comic Con convention, and rooms were scarce and expensive. Victor secured 8 rooms for our family and friends (we eventually used 7) at a... More

We recently spent three nights at this wonderful hotel in Encinitas. The rooms were very nice and the beds were some of the most comfortable I have experienced at any hotel regardless of price. We both like firmer beds and we felt like we were at home. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect; we were... More
