“Mason Beach's perks”
Mason Beach Inn is a lovely great-location stay — a Santa Barbara spot very near the beach with an elegant environment and a soothing blue palette, free drinks, snacks, decent coffee and cookies at the counter, overnight parking, clean rooms and ordinary-but-fine service; recommended for the location alone. Caveats though: the sink sits outside the toilet and bathroom, which was a little inconvenient, and the shower pressure ran slightly weak.
