We had a great time!
Pros:

The location was great!

Cons:

There were some maintenance issues that need taken care of. The bathroom had a strange oder, just in the bathroom. Could have used a deep clean, not real bad but needed a more thorough cleaning. I might check out other places next time to compare.

Great Stay!
Pros:

We had a fantastic stay at Pacific Shores Inn in San Diego! The location is unbeatable—just step to Pacific Beach, restaurants, and shops, making it perfect for a laid-back coastal getaway.
The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-kept, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The pool area was a nice bonus—quiet, clean, and great for unwinding after a day at the beach.
What really stood out was the friendly and helpful staff. They made check-in easy and were always available if we needed anything.
Overall, Pacific Shores Inn is a great value for the location. If you’re looking for a simple, comfortable place near the beach with great service, this is a perfect choice. We’d definitely stay here again!
