The room was clean, which is important to me. The lighting could be improved; even with all the lights on, the room was a little dark. Bed was comfy, but the king mattress probably needs to be replaced. It was a little "lumpy." The location is perfect!
We had another wonderful stay at the Shell Beach Inn. Very clean room, very comfortable, I love the new A/C unit. The pool was very nice. I really appreciated the excellent communication with the office staff. We will definitely be back! Thank you.
In the morning before my arrival someone from the property called to say that nobody would be at the front desk when I arrived because of an emergency, and that my key would be in a lockbox outside the office. When I opened the lock box with the key code I was given, I was surprised that there were many room keys in there with names and room numbers on them. I can think of several reasons why this is unsafe. My room was very dark and dimly lit, despite multiple lamps and light switches all over the room. The curtains that cover the wooden shades are not blackout shades. How could such a dark room be so light in the morning? The room is very noisy as the property is adjacent to a busy surface street and the freeway. I am sure that is why two pair of ear plugs were next to the bed. Lastly, the sheets were washed with very fragrant detergent and set off my allergies. Not a very restful stay and definitely not worth the price for this motel room.
Highly recommend this property. Very nice room & heated pool. Excellent staff. Very affordable, a lot of attention to details & in walking distance from good restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay & will be back. Thank you.
The hotel aesthetically is beautiful, but not clean at all. My daughter pulled back the sheet on her bed in the morning and found a brown stain. We also found feces on the side of the toilet which the hotel had to clean and my son walked around in White Sox and when he looked at them, they were solid black on the bottom. The hotel really is a great location and so cute but they need to do a better job about cleaning.
I really enjoyed my stay at Shell Beach Inn! It has a wonderful location, walkable to the beautiful Shell beach and a variety of restaurants. My room was so tastefully designed and cute! I loved spending time there. The bed was comfy, bathroom clean and inviting, and the room felt spacious!
Very nice and clean property. Close to the beach and Avila Beach. Only issue I had was there was a little bit of mold on the shower curtain on the inside and the hot water took a long time to get hot.
We enjoyed our stay here and recommend Shell Beach Inn! The room was nicely updated and modern with nice touches like a small igloo cooler for ice and a jar of candy. The beds are really comfortable!
My favorite place to stay In Pismo area- rooms have cute/ home like touches in decor. The bathrooms are a bit small but beds are comfy & it’s always clean. Staff is always great too. Key less check in/ room entry is also convenient. Beach is a short couple minute walk down street. Steaming Bean coffee shop is nearby with excellent coffee and quick breakfast options
