Check in was a breeze. Then had an issue with a leak and a very easy transfer to a new room. The room was a single queen room with kitchenette. I could have stayed longer. I was cery impressed with all of it and would go again.

This was our first time to Ocean Shores. We had a wonderful weekend gateway as our family. We loved the pool and spa room!!! This room was top notch! We were traveling with our dog as well. We felt like our whole experience was less relaxed because we felt like there were so many rules!!!! We also felt like we were always being watched! We would have enjoyed our experience more if there were less cameras everywhere, more privacy and more trust to pet owners. The rules and fines seemed a little too excessive and extreme. We appreciated the cleanliness of the Inn, seemed better than most places we have stayed. The beds and couch comfort were pretty sub-par. We did not sleep good.
