The Spotlight on PB Surf Beachside Inn

Relaxed Beach Vibes Steps from the Action


PB Surf Beachside Inn is a no-frills, beachside retreat in sunny San Diego, just a half-block from the sand and surf of Pacific Beach. With easy access to live music venues, a laid-back atmosphere, and simple, spacious rooms, this hotel is ideal for music lovers who want to stay close to both the stage and the shore.

The rooms are clean and airy, featuring private bathrooms, air conditioning, and cable TV—perfect for winding down after a night out. Bonus: there’s a guest laundry facility and barbecue grills on-site if you’re staying a few days or traveling with friends.

Why Concert-goers love it

PB Surf Beachside Inn is less than a 10-minute drive to big-name San Diego music venues and just far enough from downtown to avoid late-night noise. The laid-back Pacific Beach neighborhood offers easy rideshare access and street parking, making post-show travel a breeze. With a 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out, guests have a bit of flexibility to sleep in after a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a beach-and-music weekend
  • Solo travelers catching a must-see show
  • Couples wanting a relaxing base near the coast
  • Fans needing a quiet place to crash post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers wanting location without the hefty price tag

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, you’re surrounded by walkable eateries serving everything from burritos to sushi. Pacific Beach's late-night spots stay open well past midnight, and many offer takeout if you're heading back post-gig. Morning after? Plenty of brunch cafes nearby serve until noon or later.

Nightlife Options

Whether you’re looking to pre-game or keep the night going, Pacific Beach delivers. There are casual beach bars, craft breweries, and local lounges within walking distance. Live music can often be found at nearby venues, and the area has a fun, youthful energy without being overwhelming.

What People Say

Guests love the location near the beach, the affordable rates, and the relaxed vibe. Many reviews mention the clean, spacious rooms and friendly staff. It's described as a solid choice for travelers who want to be close to the ocean and nightlife without the high price of downtown hotels.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel is more basic than boutique—think beachy and simple rather than upscale. Some guests noted that the Wi-Fi can be spotty, and a few rooms could use minor updates. But for the price and location, most say it’s a fair trade-off.

The Bottom Line

If you're a concert-goer looking for a budget-friendly, beachside stay with great access to venues and nightlife, PB Surf Beachside Inn hits the right notes.

Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

Robert Fri, 23 May 2025

It was good for what...

Liked: Close proximity to beach. Hotel not as noisy as one would expect considering location.
Disliked: Spartan. One chair in room (for desk.) No storage beyond closet to hang items. No real surface areas to place things. Parking was free, but it was like changing clothes in a phone booth.

We wouldn’t stay again nor...

Liked: No breakfast, staff was nice…
Disliked: Cleanliness, upon first going in it smelled like sweat and sewer, when we closed the bathroom door and sprayed Lysol it helped. It looked like sheets had been slept on already. We drove to Walmart and bought some king sized sheets just to get us through the night, grey sheets anre ours and then went to another hotel/cottage. The sink was cracked in bathroom, others hair was along outside of shower, looks like plumbing problems with some water damage to lower walls of bathroom. We also bought Lysol to kill any germs.

Disliked: Some of the things in the room where slightly broken i.e. the toilet paper holder was coming off the wall, but was able to slide it back on. The d[r strip was ripped back, leaving a crack to be seen under the door.

Very good value

Liked: This is a very clean, extremely quiet location very close to the beach. Please be aware what others are saying. This location does NOT have a pool, business center, in-lobby coffee, laundry. All of these things are in other hotels owned by the same group. I blame the booking agencies like Travelocity and Booking.com. The owners have been trying for 5 years to get these agencies to correct the 3-4 hotels owned by the group. The booking agencies refuse to correct these. Don't blame the hotel owners. The pool was a block away and very nice - protected from wind.The beds were very comfortable. Staff very nice
