Great location
The location was wonderful. I could walk to town. But the room was cold. I couldn't get the heater to work. The only light was one small lamp. They need to put another lamp by the bed. The size of the room was good and it was good to have the refrigerator.

Being able to walk to town and the beach was great. We enjoyed the facilities. The staff at breakfast were attentive, caring and top notch. We would definitely go again.

Beautiful property. Quiet and clean. Staff was friendly and attentive. Room was dated. No outlets in the bathroom and no outlets conveniently located in the room. How do you dry your hair when the only reachable plug is next to the bed behind the nightstand? And no extension cord? There is an ironing board and iron but no place convenient or easily accessible to plug in and use them?

The staff was kind. The floor in the room needed more cleaning, but the beds were nice. The swings and the pool were nice. A few updates for the hall, dining, and common areas would be great ( even if it woud raise the cost of the the room).

Schön, erholsam, aber nicht wieder
Es war sehr schön, wir haben Zeit am Pool und im Garten genossen. Nachteil: es war KEIN Kaffee, KEIN Getränk zu bekommen! Keine Bar, kein nichts. Hinweis vom Personal: Man könne sich etwas in der Stadt holen.

The property was probably the spot to be in its hay day 25 years ago. But it was pretty dated. Clean, but dated. The breakfast were fun the food was good the staff were so cool and kind.

Right behind Main Street shops and restaurants. A historic inn in the Cape Cod tradition with indoor and outdoor swimming pools, breakfast included and comfy beds. Would stay here again for the proximity to Main Street. 15 min walk to beach.

We stayed in the double queen room in the building with the indoor pool. There are several buildings on the property so I can't speak for all. Room was spacious and very clean. Furnishings were a bit dated as many Cape hotels are. Part of the Cape charm to me. Grounds were lovely and both pools were clean and well kept up. Staff was friendly and helpful. We didn't get daily room cleaning but we were only there for 3 nights and I actually prefer to not have it. I am certain that if we needed something it would be supplied to us. Very close to beautiful downtown Falmouth and a 15 minute walk to the beach. All in all, a pleasant experience. Would recommend.

Outdated and smelly
Outdated, carpet gave off an old urine like smell. We checked out earlier than checkout date, safe to say not returning.

The property was fine- grounds well maintained. Breakfast was excellent and the servers were prompt and pleasant. Staff was pleasant and prompt with questions. The room however was a disappointment. Room felt damp even with the air conditioner on. The rug was damp/wet and I think there was a leak in the BR wall- the paint was sagging. Towels were threadbare. Overall a disappointment.

Room was spacious - enjoyed the full sized refrigerator and round table and chairs looking out the big window (old style fire truck was in view). TV was out for the first night, but was available the second night. Decor was dated, but mostly comfortable for our two night stay. Quiet location with plenty of parking spaces. Close to town.

I like that this property is quintessential to Cape Cod and is not modern or trending. I do, however, wish the television was a smart one.

This is a lovely old-fashioned resort. Yes a bit tired with some of the furniture a bit of a mix from grandma's house or value village but the beds and linens felt new and very comfortable. Very clean. The room with two queen beds was large. The property was large and felt grand with the lawn and several resort buildings. I didn't use the indoor pool but it looked really inviting with lots of windows. Location was super with main street just a few minutes walk away and the beaches about 600m down the road. Caveat - I was there at low season, probably only a handful of guests, so very quiet in the building and property.

Good location in a nice part of Falmouth
The stay at shoreways inn was mixed really. The check in was good, nice indoor pool and easy parking. The decor we thought was tired looking, especially in the bedroom. The room was spacious but definitely needed updating. The bath and sink were marked and chipped, the fridge very old and noisy. The entrance and passage way to the room's wasn't vacuumed while we were there the 3 nights and overall very tired looking. The good points were the breakfast which was a good selection of hot and cold items and is included in the room rate. Paula our server was lovely and couldn't do enough for you. The location is great, easy 5 minute walk to the restaurants and shops of Falmouth with a great choice, as I said easy parking and nice pool area. Just in our opinion tired decor and basic cleaning letting it down.
