Malibu Beach Inn

Malibu Beach Inn

10/10 Excellent
"Unsurpassable ocean views which is the real magnet of this place! The room and the balcony were clean, very comfortable and appropriately designed. The only let down was the service at the restaurant where the service was strained, slow and spotty but the food tasted good. The mussels in broth arrived cold and it took a while before I could flag down the waiter to let him know. He did change it but forgot to bring a spoon so I was back at trying to flag him down. The hotel itself was nothing but lovely and I will be back."
