Been coming here for many years they put zero effort into the upkeep of the propertylets start here: check in was a nightmare; they gave us a room for 2 when we booked a room for 3 with ocean view; it took over 1 hour to get the room we booked. Also the guy checking us in offered us valet for $60 a night and caught him offering the next guest $45 a night....the sink faucet is falling off, toilet is leaking, the shower head doesn't work correctly, the blow dryer looks from 1980 and it's filthy. The chairs on the patio are falling apart. The lady who cleaned the room didn't even make the "extra" bed which is not a bed but a couch! this place is just dirtyforget about the breakfast, expect an apple and 99cents wrapped muffin from Walmart that has 1,000 ingredientsdo yourself a favor and skip this place the only good thing about it is the location. Also there's a resort fee of 30 per day for water and beach towels but there were no beach towels in the room... It is clear this place has no standards. I would not recommend.
ALSO it is apparent they could care less... they have the same reply to all the comments on here. I'm attaching a picture of the ocean view they claim the room has...but clearly it's a view of the parking lot

We absolutely LOVED staying at Balboa Inn!! We had a bad experience with an Airbnb, so we called Balboa Inn and spoke with a helpful and kind young man named Kyle. He made sure that we were set up right away with a room so that we were able to enjoy the rest of our vacation. Such a great location and amazing staff! Awesome all around experience !!

The best location, we had a balcony room and I could see the ocean from our balcony. It is an older property, I felt they did a good job updating the rooms. The free courtyard breakfast was an added perk. I would stay here again.
Walkability: We didn't have a vehicle and we're able to walk everywhere.

The hotel is good and well located, but it was disappointing because they didn't give me back the amount of the deposit we made upon arrival, which was equivalent to one night's stay, in other words, I'm at a loss of 125 dollars and so far they haven't even responded to my email asking for it. the return
