I found this motel via TripAdvisor at the last minute and had a nice stay. For someone who is obsessed with surfing the place had great ambience. Room 5 had a blue wave painted on the walls, and funky pictures of well dressed animals as well as old black and white photos of surfers. The managers Julie and James were very friendly despite me checking in quite late, and they let me check out late as well. It was not noisy. The only con is the shower could use some modernizing. The location is great for the beach and surfing. For lovers of Vietnamese food and pho Westminster is a short drive away. Overall I had a great time and look forward to coming back.

Great room! 2 streets from Main Street! Quiet hotel we were able to party on Main Street and then come and sleep very comfortable! The rooms were unique and very cool! Great service! Would defiantly stay here again!

This hotel is the only place I will stay in Huntington Beach. The last visit was the 5th time I have stayed at the Inn. I'm usually in room 6 and feel right at home when I "move in". I sleep like a baby every time I'm here. Julie and James who manage the place are fantastic. They are very hands-on and go above and beyond to make sure you are happy. Whether I need extra pillows or towels it's no problem. I highly recommend the Tuesday night street market a few blocks away. Super fun! See you soon Julie and James cuz I'm coming back in a few weeks!

I really wanted to like this hotel, but it didn't work for us.
We just needed a simple room to stay the night while traveling from Santa Cruz to San Diego. I liked the idea of supporting a locally owned hotel, but I wish I had made another choice. The biggest irritation was that the hotel left the lights on outside the rooms (for safety I presume) and the rooms didn't have proper window coverings. I felt like I could have read a book just by the light coming in through the window blinds. Since we were traveling with a toddler, it was especially annoying.
The street noise was pretty high as well and the carpets were really dingy. It could be great for other people, but it just didn't work for our family. I'm glad that there are independently owned establishments, but this one really needs to invest in curtains.
