The Coastal Inn

Stayed here one night after digging clams. It was clean, nothing fancy. Room was on the small side. The location was great, staff were nice enough. Great coffee maker and freshly ground coffee in the room. My only complaint was the walls are thin and the guy next door was snoring like a big bear all night long. Ha Ha For $ 75 though, I would stay here again, maybe not my wife though. :-(

Let me start by saying… I screwed up. I thought I booked a room for my wedding anniversary and instead had booked a night the following week. When we showed up the gentleman at the front desk was more than accommodating. Not only was he able to squeeze us in, he upgraded our room and jumped through hoops to make sure we were happy. The room had more than everything we needed. 2 TV’s, full kitchen, living room, king size bed, free dvd’s (at the front desk), and fresh coffee! We were very pleased. We will definitely be back. This place gets an A+.

Location + Price makes this a winner.
We chose the coastal inn and suites based on price and reviews, price was very nice based on the season and location! Beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. The location was another winner, as it was maybe a 5 – 10 minute walk to hit a portion of the ‘downtown’ even the boardwalk is close. Now what you won’t get is an ocean view, but the price point plus great location makes this a true star.
Pros:
Great location
Price during peak season
Free DVDs/​games to rent
Free waffles/​fruit/​coffee
Comfortable beds
Great management
Cons:
Rooms do tend to get warm, would be nice to get some fans
Minor issues that were addressed (bath plug not working, which was fixed by Shelly getting us a manual stopper, cable TV reception was crappy)

We stayed here for a night during spring break. The room was clean, there were two TV ‘s, a DVD player and full kitchen. Staff was super nice and helpful. They even let us borrow a clam gun.
This was our first stay but we will definitely be coming back. My out of state family and mine thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We stayed here on March 13, 2015. Some friends and I had a couple of days off and decided to check out long beach but after a 4 hour drive, we ended up arriving there way too late. This was the cheapest place opened for booking late at night so we didnt expect much. To our surprise, the staff at the front desk was extremely friendly. Maria, our housekeeper, did a great job of making sure everything was comfy and clean!
We stayed in the cutest little yet spacious room that included a king sized bed, a queen and a hide-​a-​bed couch. The atmosphere was very homey. Good choice of complimentary shower stuff! The facial soap made my skin extra soft and smelled great! The room had a heater/​air conditioner so its extremely cozy for any weather.
The office had some free DVDs to rent, so we stayed in and watched a couple of movies. They had bikes and beach towels for rent as well! Our mini vacation couldn’t have ended any better without the complimentary fresh homemade waffles for breakfast! We will definitely be staying here on our next visit!

What a nice stay we had here! Mark & Shelley bent over backwards to accommodate us and even upgraded our room to include a kitchen… which was very well stocked, by the way. Room rates were super reasonable. Right in the middle of downtown Long Beach and, of course, the wonderful beach there. We couldn’t have been more pleased with our accommodations.

Nice, clean, comfortable and affordable.
We stayed in the Deluxe Queen Suite. For the price this room definitely exceeded or expectations! Loved the hard wood floors since we had 3 kids and a dog in the room.
Walking distance to restaurants, bars, arcade and shopping. Could walk to the beach but why would you when you can drive on to the beach there! (If you have 4wd)
Will definitely be back!

Seems like the ratings are very divergent for this place so I’m one of the few in the middle. The high ratings could easily make expectations too high for this place resulting in a low rating. This is a clean, well-​run, motel on the main drag just three blocks from the center of town and about three blocks to the beach. There are no views. There is nothing fancy or quaint or «beachy» about this place. It’s clean, well located, with friendly people running it. The beds were comfortable. The bathroom adequate and it looks like recently renovated. That’s about it. We had the family suite with two Queens and a pull out sofa. The non-​suite regular rooms are very small. Our room had a mini fridge and microwave but no plates or utensils (normal.) They serrve waffles, pastries, fruit and coffee in the morning and you could save some of the plates and forks from that if you need them. You can borrow two rusted beach cruisers to get around which could really use some chain lube. There’s a Surrey that is indefinitely out of commission. I believe the owners just took this place over a couple months ago and have big plans for expansion.
If you’re looking for anything on the beach or with a view of anything other than a parking lot or road, or with a restaurant and/​or pool, this isn’t the place. If you want to be an easy walk to town in a reasonably priced, clean, well-​run motel, this is a good choice.
A-​OK! 3.5 stars. Recommended as long as you know what you’re getting.

We stayed here end of June 2014, Check in was very friendly, we got our key and went to our room… ummmm…ya…didn’t represent what I remembered seeing in the pictures on their website at all… it just wasn’t going to do, (very small and non ‘homey’)we went back and paid the extra $ 20/​night for their ‘suite’. It was a little better than the first room we were offered, had 2 beds in a large open space, a little odd in the arrangement of furniture, but bed was comfortable. also had a full kitchen/​dinning room space.
Location is great, but I won’t be coming back here, their prices are not outrageous, but for what you get, I think it’s too high.

Owners are nice and are a wealth of info on what to do in the area. The rooms seem brand new and I love the hardwood floors. Very clean and soft beds. Only downside is the compact room and no hair dryer. Waffle, oatmeal, coffee, and fruit offered as complimentary breakfast. The carved bears and birdhouses adorning the hotel are cute.

watch out for this place I booked a room here for aug.30^th 2014 and they booked me for Aug. 6^th 2014 call the owner he said he stayed up till 2am waiting for me and I never showed he also said he emailed me a confirmation that night at 9pm I never confirmed the room because I did not get the email till next day. he would not refund me my money nor would he credit me a night BAD BUSSNISS!!! if you ask me he also hung the phone up on me during the conversation…

Found this hotel last minute on
. If you appreciate locally owned hotels, this one is quite nice. We had Room 204, a King suite w/​full kitchen. Having stayed in several time shares, it had one of the best furnished kitchens I’ve seen. They had a great selection of free DVD rentals & we borrowed one. They sell some snacks in the office, but not microwave popcorn. That would be a good addition. We walked back to Scoops Market for popcorn & other snacks & wrapped up the night w/​our movie. Didn’t have any noise problems, in spite of a full hotel, except for in the am because we left the bedroom window open & it was right by the door out of the second floor area. I wish that window had room darkening curtains because the light from the hall made it hard for me to sleep. I also wish the living room window overlooking the street had mini blinds or sheers for privacy. I plan to return & bring my dog.

We stayed last weekend for the Clam Festival. The reviews were spot on.

Con’s —
I am an early bird and wanted breakfast at 7am. It opens at 8am.
I will stay there the next time I go !!!

I found this place because of special promotion offer on
. It was super good deal. The front desk were very polite and friendly. The accommodation was simple, clean. Nothing fancy or extra, but it fits the bill and convenient location. Only 1 block to beach and other restaurants.

Five stars for a cozy stay by the beach! The Coastal Inn has that mom & pop feeling and you feel like you have arrived at home as soon as you pull in. It is right off the main strip and in walking distance to all you want to see and do. We parked literally right outside our room until we got a complimentary upgrade to a suite– love that! Spacious clean rooms, full ice cube trays, and even towel animals on our bed after room service. Free DVD rentals, complimentary breakfast (waffles mmm!) and they plan to get a pool in 2014. Definitely will be back!

On a spur of the moment trip to Long Beach and then the Oregon Coast, we took a stab in the dark and followed ⁴⁄₅ Star reviews from Trip Advisor on this hotel. Not sure who wrote the reviews, but this place is a dump. Not only could we hear every movement and voice in every room around us, but our non-​smoking room smelled of stale cigarettes, the pillowcases looked as though they hadn’t been changed, the floor was coming up in places, the bed felt as hard as a bumpy rock, the room was stuffy and without air-​conditioning or even a fan. I would not even recommend an enemy to stay here. I’m not an overly-​fussy traveler – while I love truly 4 and 5-​star worthy hotels, I have been known to stay at Day’s Inns and even the occasional Motel 6. This place makes the latter seem like a Four Seasons by comparison!

This is written 3÷31÷13 regarding our stay during 3÷16÷13 — 3÷18÷13.
We found The Coastal Inn online and chose them vs. Adrift Inn or the WorldMark, despite being long time members. Coincidentally, we met Kristin (one of the owners) at the Visitors Center in Seaview — figured that’s a good sign! It is a centrally located spot with the beach and local businesses all within walking distance.
Check-​in with both Kristin and Joshua was very warm and welcoming. Our room was reasonably priced, clean, comfortable and had a flat-​screen TV and mini fridge/​microwave/​coffee service. We were pretty much out and about during our stay, but it was great to have a relaxing place to call home during our 3 day weekend. We were lucky that we had quiet and respectful guests in the adjoining units and traffic noise wasn’t a problem, since we all slept soundly or maybe because we were still visiting off season and we got plenty of walking and ocean fresh air.
Other options: DVD player/​movies to loan, beach quad cycle, and there’s also fresh fruit and waffles in the reception/​check-​in area each morning.
One thing to mention to future visitors to the Long Beach Peninsula: Make sure to bring or purchase a Discover Pass when you visit any of the park sites ($ 10 daily or $ 30 annual). Avoid getting a $ 99 non-​traffic infraction from the local ranger!
Excellent find and extremely gracious owners/​hosts, Kristin and Joshua Buehler.

Josh was very friendly. Offered us a doggy pad for out pet. Rooms recently remodeled and very clean. Great location!

My two girl friends and I had an awesome weekend in Long Beach and this hotel was great, very affordable, very clean, and walking distance to everything! once we parked we only hopped in the car once to go down to Ilwaco, other then that we just walked. The Inn is just feet from the main street with shops and restaurants, plus it is on one of the beach access roads so we could just walk straight on down to the ocean!

I, like most people, am on a budget. I wanted a vacation and I didn’t want to spend an arm and a leg for a room that I won’t be in much but for sleeping. So I found the Coastal Inn, and my first thought was that it looks like one of those motels that turns creepy in scary movies. Though I looked more into and found the pictures showed modern rooms and that it was just bought by a young married couple. So I thought I would give it a try.
It was the cheapest stay in the area. My first phone conversation didn’t make me feel thrilled (maybe a bad day) but I recieved a warm welcome and great help when we arrived. It was a perfect location, walking distance to everything and PERFECT for festivals. The rooms felt very clean and modern (which to me is more comfortable then old floral prints). They had a down type comforter and a soft blanket (just like one I have in my own home) that made it much easier for me to try and sleep, since I don’t sleep well outside my home. I have to say it was about the best place I have ever stayed.
