Reviews for The Shores Inn
Review 1：The mattresses are very uncomfortable. Other than that we enjoyed our time.
Review 2：It's what it should be for being so close to the beach. Brings back memories of staying on Balboa Island.
Review 3：No words.
Review 4：Very nice place, also one of the best staff(s) for a little inn. Nice rooms love the short walk to the beach. Very person as a smile as you walk in to the office.
Review 5：The property was old, unclean, noisy, and had no AC or ventilation. Also a lot of questionable characters hanging around both at night and in the morning.
Review 6：The front office person that we dealt with was very nice.
Review 7：There was no air conditionrin in the room only a small fan that didn't provide enough air for the room and the housekeers forgot to pick up a few things from the restroom.
Review 8：It was a very nice hotel, great location and friendly staff members.
Review 9：The TV wasn't working, and there was no wi-fi. They also didn't clean the room during our stay.
Review 10：Love the proximity to the beach! Staff was very nice and accommodating with a late check-in.
Review 11：Definitely deferred maintenance, no towel racks, no toilet paper holder, broken window shades, shower faucet was very hard to operate. Breakfast area in office was dirty. A little bit of care would make a big difference !!
Review 12：Good location, quiet, close to Beach and restaurants
Review 13：Second bed smelled like urine, mold on shower curtain, shower walls had major mildew,towels were stained, handle in shower was broken, nats were coming out of pipes and the smell was horrible to brush to brush teeth.
Review 14：close to freeway but that is all
Review 15：The walls need major painting, the tub was moldy and the furniture chesp and over bearing for the room( too big for a small space)

Review 17：One of the beds in a two queen bed room was really old and squeeky and collapsed. The other bed was nice though. (Room 214)
Review 18：Close to restaurants, bars, and liquor store. Great parking.
Review 19：No screen window wide open all night until I noticed it next morning. No cups provide for water. No maid service first 2 nights
Review 20：Location licatiom location
Review 21：The TV did not work, the Wi-fi did not work, the breakfast was poor, there was no air conditioning and it was very hot.There was no phone and we had to park 2 blocks away. The wake up call (which was going to be a wake up knock) never happened. The motel is across the street from a liquor store, which was open till very late, and a lot of people were hanging out there, which was very noisy. The place was grossly over rated - next time it will be the Motel 6. We would not recommend it.
Review 22：The room was really out dated, bed needed to be replaced and place was dirty inside and out. No coffee in room and had to wait untl office opened at 7:30 am to get coffee and breakfest.
Review 23：Microwave and refridgerator and large television. Inn was 2 blocks from the ocean and resturants close by.
Review 24：We had a little trouble with the wifi but we decided we should be walking on the beach instead!
