Summary of reviews

Guests appreciated the great location of the hotel, with many highlighting beautiful ocean views and proximity to the beach. However, there were significant concerns about cleanliness and the value for the price, with some guests feeling that the amenities did not meet expectations given the cost. Overall, while the location is a strong point, guests felt the hotel could improve in terms of cleanliness and value for money.AI-generated from customer reviews

Pros (+) location was great and staff excellent!
Cons (-) Bathroom plaster was flaking off. 1980 jetted tub that does not look like it work but would be a fool to try given the appearance. Heavy dust on vents.
Pros (+) The location of the Inn is great, right in the centre of Balboa. The inn itself seemed charming but we unfortunately had a terrible experience here.
Cons (-) Having arrived at the hotel with three rooms booked, confirmed and prepaid, we were informed the hotel was sold out, that we should have been notified of the cancelled booking and nothing could be done. The staff made no attempt to relocate us, offer us any kind of compensation and in fact were rude and condescending. A frustrating and disappointing experience all around.
