Here’s the good and the not-so-good

Great location near the marina with easy access to breakfast spots! Room was quiet despite freeway proximity, comfortable bedding made for restful nights.

Unfortunately, common areas felt neglected. We encountered cleanliness issues, such as paint peeling and inadequate maintenance. Definitely in need of upgrades.

The Queen Room with Two Queen Beds was cozy and well-maintained, making it ideal for our family. The location impressively allowed us to walk to the beach within 15 minutes. Fresh towels were always provided after long beach days, which was a thoughtful touch. However, security concerns due to unlockable windows and the state of maintenance were disappointing. The exposed wires were alarming, and issues like peeling paint made the property feel neglected. Also, there were limited breakfast options available, which could use improvement.

excellent access to the beach and beautiful parks nearby

during my stay, I really appreciated how easy it was to walk to the beach and explore the stunning Pacific Street Linear Park, making my city strolls super enjoyable while soaking up the beautiful views.

I enjoyed the comfortable beds and the informative staff during my stay. The air conditioning kept my room cold during the heat wave, making my stay pleasant.

We had a fantastic group trip! We loved our stay near the beach and got to explore the SEA LIFE Aquarium and enjoy some thrilling races at the Del Mar Racetrack. The accommodations were comfortable, and we had a great time hanging out with friends. Perfect spot for a fun getaway!

However, the breakfast options were a bit lacking. It would have been nice to have more variety to start our day.

Had an amazing stay at Harbor Inn & Suites Oceanside! The room was super cozy with a comfy bed and a cute little balcony where we enjoyed our morning coffee. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach, which made our surfing days easy and enjoyable.

The breakfast could use more variety.

Denny's is just a hop away when you need a hearty breakfast. And don't sleep on Joe's Crab Shack—the crab is fresh and the vibes are chill! Also, the comfy beds made it tough to leave for our next adventure.

The place had a funky smell and the bathroom could have used a rescue mission. Seriously, a broken sink and slippery floors?

great service , but noise levels can be high

The staff provided excellent support when I needed assistance. Maria, the maid, was friendly and made my stay feel welcoming. I enjoyed the easy access to the beach and nearby Denny's, making dining choices convenient during my visit.

While the location is convenient, being close to the I-5 resulted in noticeable noise levels.

Recommend for a brief weekend stay

Cozy room, friendly staff, convenient location, and it was just a 15-minute walk to the beach with easy access to public transportation options, making it perfect for exploring the area.

Everything was amazing.

The staff at Harbor Inn & Suites really stood out. They answered the phone promptly and tried to accommodate my needs, which I appreciated. The location was super convenient for visiting my son at Camp Pendleton, and it was close to the beach, making it easy to walk there. Maria, the maid, was amazing—very friendly and welcoming. I liked that they accept dogs, which is a big plus for pet owners. The room had a good setup, and the plumbing, heat, and air conditioning worked well. However, the place could use updates. The noise from the I-5 was noticeable, but turning on the air helped dampen it. Some areas of the hotel felt run down and in need of repairs. Overall, I enjoyed my stay despite the inconveniences.

The King Room I stayed in was super comfy, the bed felt great! The a/c was a lifesaver during the heat wave and kept the room nice and cool. I loved the rock stand-up shower, it added a nice touch. Plus, the staff was friendly, which made a difference too. Definitely wouldn't complain about the price!

This place was a suitable match for a short staycation in Oceanside with good value for money. The bathroom ceiling had noticeable mold, which really grossed me out. Be cautious with the cleanliness, especially in the bathrooms.
