I had a wonderful experience at the Shoreline Inn! The location in downtown Grand Marais right on the water was lovely and convenient to shops, restaurants, and a bookstore! Staff members Monica and Carmen were so helpful. I look forward to staying here again in the future! Thank you.

Was fine for a night stay, but the property, room and amenities feel old. Breakfast was somewhat limited and felt it could have started earlier. Staff was friendly, but this place needs some TLC.

My go to place, it’s funky and outdated, but I love that about this place. It just has a 1960-79’s vibe.

The windows to see the lake view was clouded over. The room was dirty. There is no A/C, they said the sea breeze cools down the room. That is not true, because there was only one small window that had a screen. Also, if people have a bon fire outside the window you can't have the window open. The person checking us in was helpful and the bed was comfortable.

I haven't stayed at this property for probably 13 years. It was sad to see how its been "let go". Literally the same bedspreads, and faded posters on the walls. The tub had no mat, very slippery, had to stand on a washcloth. The carpet was in poor condition, torn wall paper. Our door had a huge gap on the top, and the extra lock on the inside was broken. The refrigerator control was broken. It was overall fairly clean, and the staff were wonderful. The location is the best, and we were on the lake side. Our windows did open, and you could see out of them. ( other reviews said you couldn't do either)This little hotel could be a gem, sad to see it like this. We still had a great time, so I could overlook these issues. But they really need to do repairs.

Rooms were old and need updating. Could not control the temp in the room and it was hot. Had to open a window.

Agree with previous reviews, excessive heat in the rooms, no coffee maker, no available electrical outlets, poor water pressure, and strange door lock system. The price is right, though, and I would stay here again.
