Shilo Inn Suites Seaside Oceanfront

Room 318's history. My Beautiful Mom is one of the 1st women commercial fisherman in the USA. When Dad died, his son stole the insurance $ (funeral and our eating $), and showed up to the funeral in his brand new trans am causing my Mom such a financial struggle for years. In 2012 Mom got cancer from dentures. My Mom Never complained, nor asked for anything, ever. She always took stray "broken family" children in...giving them her dinner (without me knowing), when Mom was hungry :( The all knowing, know nothing drs said we had 1 yr. but Jesus gave us 4. We were so Tired. Just TIRED. I packed bags, & told Mom we were going somewhere for a day. We played 20 questions but I wasn't going to tell her we were going to go stay at the beach....ON the beach, the Shilo Inn on the Promenade. :) Our confirmation email said room 226. In 2015, I surprised her with 3 nights at the Shilo Inn which we couldn't afford. With her limited eyesight, she walked in the room and saw her beautiful ocean she fished for 17 years, selling to Star Kist. She had an absolutely complete FIT of Happiness to think we were going to stay for the night...and couldn't believe we were staying for 3! In 2016, I lost my Mom, my best friend,....and it nearly killed me. I've been wanting to go back and stay in OUR SAME ROOM. To confirm we stayed in 226 like the prior-stay confirmation stated, I called the Shilo, but they said their system didn't go back that far. I was so distressed. I would just die if I got there and it wasn't our room full of our great memories!!! I emailed manger Clayton pics I had taken from our room. He went FAR BEYOND my expectations by actually going in rooms with my pics in hand, and emailed me to say Mom and I had indeed stayed in room 318 & that he had Secured it so not be given to anyone else! Oh how I felt to turn the handle of the door, seeing Mom and me,.......and the vase of GORGEOUS flowers waiting on our table.

Our family loves The Shiloh Inn at Seaside! It is located right on the beachfront & immediately adjacent to the famous Seaside turnaround, thus both the beach/promenade and downtown shopping/restaurants are all just steps away! I thoroughly enjoyed my morning coffee on the balcony, "people watching" those already on the beach & promenade as I contemplated our family's plans for the day. Our family also enjoyed the Shiloh's sizable & kid friendly pool, plus hot tub, and sauna! Staff was very helpful and always courteous. I'd recommend the Shilo Inn as a clean, safe, affordable, and convenient place to stay in Seaside, especially for families!

I took one point off for facilities because 1 of the 2 elevators was out of order for the entire 10 day duration of our stay, with apparently no plans or attempts to fix the broken one. This resulted in sometimes a VERY long wait for the 1 operating elevator.

The staff was amazing!! So kind, so thoughtful, so hard working, and they all had such great attitudes! The room was nice and had a wonderful loft with chairs looking at the ocean. Great spot to watch the sunrise and

The bed was so soft and conpl worn out. I am 5'5" 140lbs and it was so soft I literally couldn't roll over without completely lifting my body. My husband also couldn't move and sleeping next to him caused me to call into the middle since he made a bigger dent than me. It was so bad we had to call our last day short and leave because our backs hurt so bad. Our sink also wouldn't drain. But I want really worried about that. Our shower and toilet worked fine so we still had water and a place to spit toothpaste and wash our hands. And the did send a maintenance man up to fix it. They weren't able to but, it wasn't a big deal.

The ocean front view was unbeatable and amazing! The weather was perfect. The location right in the heart of downtown Seaside. The beddings are comfortable. Water pressure in the shower was great!

No breakfast. One of the elevators was not working that made waiting longer. Our coffee maker did not work either. When it got warm in the room there was no screen door to let us leave the patio door open and let cool air in. We didn't want bugs to come in to the room. Kitchen is not fully stocked with essentials. Not enough silverware and cookware. No sponge was provided to wash dishes.

I had an ocean side room, so was paying for the view, which was great. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean. Fridge, oven, microwave, coffee maker, all worked just fine.

The doors had problems. The knob on the bathroom door was loose, one closet slider was missing and the door to the patio facing the sea took real muscle to slide open or close. Also, the chairs were comfortable, but thread bare. But none of that was a real problem for us. That is all very minor. Everything that counts about a room was just fine!

We always like the "partial ocean view" rooms, with the upper level loft. it's a peaceful spot to watch the waves, and listen to seagulls. The bed and pillows were very comfy, and Sue and Terrell at the front desk are always just the best folks to deal with, and visit with.

There's a lot of channels on the TV, but no printed channel guide in the rooms, that would be a real help, so you don't scroll endlessly looking for a channel you want to see,. the windows facing the ocean are reallllly needing cleaned,.

Love that it’s right on the beach amazing views close to everything. Beds where comfortable. Loved that there was a full kitchen in our room. Mo’s restaurant attach

1 of the elevators where broken and the other one kept malfunctioning. The hot tub jets did not work and there was sand in the hot tub. The pool water seemed dirty. The toilet in our room was dirt like half of the bowl had not been cleaned.

Our room was on the 5th floor(top floor) and the view was exceptional!! Sand, sea, & people on the Promenade....endlessly fascinating! The location of Shiloh Inn is right on the beach and right on the main street that goes into downtown; PERFECT for beach access, shopping, dining,etc! Everything was in walking distance!

In the pool area, the hot tub water level was too low so the water jets were not completely underwater and therefore they splashed too much.

Shilo staff and room were great

Booking.com is where it all went wrong. I booked the room thru booking .com, got to Shilo to check in and there was no reservation. I provided my confirmation #, and there was NO RESERVATION! Shilo staff was so kind and found us a room, but I had to pay Shilo directly, EVEN THO booking.com already charged my card. Got ahold of booking.com and they said they would remove the charges from my credit card, but guess what?? The charges have no been removed!! I am now going thru the process of disputing charges. I WILL NEVER USE BOOKING.COM AGAIN

We have stayed here seven times now,.it's location is so convenient to downtown Seaside. We really enjoy Sue, and Terrell at the front desk- we are always happy to see them, they are just the best!

Once again, one of the elevators was out of service,.which makes it a bit tricky getting up and down, when lots of people are waiting for the one working elevator
