Modern and clean. Small balcony with pretty good view of the beach (4th floor). Everyone extremely nice and helpful. Would highly recommend for a stay in SM. Only issue (didn’t bother me though) was loud a/c which was central and perhaps was just loud in my room.

My stay at the shore hotel was almost perfect. I had ordered a room with the ocean view the room that I received had a partial ocean view. We had a room with two double beds. One of the beds was horrible. Should’ve been replaced a long time ago . That being said the hotel itself and the staff were amazing. The food the food was verygood and presented well.
