The room was infested with flies and there were bugs in the bed. We ended up not even sleeping there bc it was so gross

Pleasant enough motel. Nothing special but no complaints. Ice chest full of ice for residents was a plus, Rooms are clean although a little small. If you are looking for a bed for the night then Shorewood fits the bill.

Strongly urge anyone not to stay here. My partner and I were looking for a simple, clean, and affordable hotel room for one night. We found this hotel and wanted to book here rather than going with a large chain hotel. We arrived, put a few belongings in the room, and left for a few hours. When we came back for the night, I looked closely at the sheets before fully lifting the blanket and found many short hairs covering the pillows, as well as a brown stain on the fitted sheet. Neither I nor my partner have short hair, and they were all over the pillowcases. We went to the office to ask for a refund and to check out and we were refused a refund and instead offered a series of other rooms to stay in, each one worse than the last. The first room we were offered as an alternative had a strong smell like old food. The second room had stained pillows and the white bedframe had very obvious yellow discoloration. After trying to persuade two staff members to refund us we simply decided to leave despite how late it was, and take our chances that we would be refunded because we were that uncomfortable staying in those conditions for one night. The next day I called to follow up on the refund request, and I was repeatedly told that I would get a call back. I had to return the call each time as no one reached back out with an answer. In the end they refused to return our room fee. I told them I have stayed in many budget hotels and I have never had an experience that compelled me to leave a bad review, even most mega chains will offer you a different (actually) clean room if there is an issue with the first one. I feel really regretful that we tried to spend the night here, the management unfortunately refused to take responsibility for the most basic standard of cleanliness at $98 a night. The management tried to use the excuse that we left the hotel room for several hours after checking in and so it was “used”, as an excuse not to refund us. That is really grasping at straws, since the issue causing us to check out early was utter lack of basic cleanliness that any hotel should have. It’s unfortunate that rather than accept their mistake and issue a refund for a truly dirty room, they chose to manipulate the situation and somehow insinuate that the bad conditions of their hotel rooms are acceptable because we didn’t raise the issue within a certain arbitrary timeframe after our booking. I’ve never left a bad review for any hotel or other business and I really hate to do it but save your money and book somewhere else.

EDIT: I am 56 and disabiled, I am also a DV & a rape survivor. I paid to stay at this Inn for 5 days. The price was reasonable. I did a split booking, when I arrived the manager told me, I could stay in the same room. After the storm we had about 14 inches of snow on the ground, but the brush wind accumulated about 4 ft of snow covering the entire parking lot. I heard plowing, when I looked outside the manager had one of the little plows to clear snow off of the sidewalk. I called and asked about being stuck inside the hotel, later on the property was cleared. I left the compound next day. When I got back I went to the office to get towels and garbage bags. The manager was upset because I told him I wasn't sure if I was to ask the housekeeper for towels or come to him. He answered angrily, we are not animals you could have asked us for towels. I told him that because he was a smaller motel, I wasn't sure if I could ask the house-keeper or come to the office. On opening my door I realised someone came in my room because I smelled disinfectant & saw supplies. So why did he give me more knowing the room was cleaned. I didnt request room service I also mentioned to the manager I was a germaphobe when checking in. I told him I like to give the room a once over even if its visible clean. Next day again I heard a noise at my door. I made sure the do not disturb sign was at my door . It sounded like someone was about to open my door. I said "hello can I help whoever at my door." The house-keeper was at my door just standing there. Also I notice the manager standing directly behind her on the porch which was odd. The house-keeper apologized. I had to run errands and when I got back around 4 pm. I met the manager we both entered the property at the same time. He ran out his car and was hurrying toward the office. I walked toward my room and swipe my key card and it was on red and I couldn't get into my room. I stood there for about 5 minutes in the cold. Mind you the manager had a view accross the parking lot where my room was. When I realized he wasnt coming to let me in the room, I called him on the phone. I said 'Sir I can't get into my room please come open my door because I am not walking to the office.' I waited another 10 minutes and then I called the police. I wasnt sure why I couldnt enter my room that I paid for that had my property or why the manager had me waiting in the cold. About 7 mins after I called the police the manager was walking toward me. I informed him that I had call the police and instead of him letting me into my room and me cancelling the call. He kissed his teeth and turned back and left me standing outside my door in the cold. I waited about another 20 mins in the cold until the cops arrived. I dont know what he told the police but the cops came out and he was still in the office. I told the cops I was checking out and to ask for a refund and he told me the manager wasnt giving me a refund. It wasn't until I told the cops my property was in the room that he went back inside and this was when the manager gave the police the keycard to my room and I packed and left. I ended up taking the bus to riverheard and taking an uber to another hotel where I spend the night. I still dont know why this Manager did what he did but he did it on spite for sure. This was my second time staying at the inn. THIS IS MY TRUE HONEST EXPERIENCE WHILE STAYING AT THIS PLACE IN JAMESPORT NY EDIT: So I had to go to DSS the day of my court date. Call the clerk ask her if it was ok to be a few minutes late she said yes. I arrived 20 minutes only for the judge to tell me, the case is over I lost I can file again. I leave this man to time

Shorewood Inn is a small, simple motel-style accommodation in Jamesport on the North Fork of Long Island. It’s a quiet, low-key place that mainly serves travelers exploring the North Fork wine region or nearby coastal towns. The overall feel is very basic and functional, more like a roadside inn than a boutique hotel, but it benefits from a calm rural setting and relatively good value for the area.

The room, itself, was just what I needed for a short stay (one person). Continental breakfast was advertised but not provided. That is one reason I chose this Inn. When asked about this I was told that breakfast is only served during peak season. That should have been advertised as well!!! A little breakfast would have been appreciated. Had to travel a distance to pay for an overpriced bowl of oatmeal. Second thoughts on staying here again.

I am 56 YO and I have a disability and receive a SSI check. I am also a DV & a rape survivor. I borrowed money and checked into this Inn on 2.22.06. The price was reasonable. At first I booked for 3 days from 2.22.26 to 2.25.26 then when I tried to add 2 more days I couldn't, so I booked another reservation from 2.25.26 to 2.27.26. On arrival the manager linked the two booking so that I didnt have to switch rooms. The day after the storm we had about 14 inches of snow on the ground by the door, but the brush wind accumulated about 4 ft of snow covering the entire parking lot. About a few hours later I heard plowing. When I looked outside the manager had one of the little plows you use to clear snow off of the sidewalk. About an hour later after I called and asked about being stuck inside the hotel later on the property was cleared. The following day after the storm I left the compound and when I got back I went straight to the office to get towels and garbage bags. The man had an attitude because I told him I wasn't sure if I was to ask the housekeeper for towels or come to the office. He said to me in a condecending tone we are not animals you could have asked us for towels. I explained to him that because he was a smaller motel, I wasn't sure if I could ask the house-keeper who didnt have any supplies or come to the office. On opening my door I realised someone came in my room because I smelled disinfectant. I was confused because if he knew the housekeeper came into my room and replace the towels and garbage bags, why didnt he just say so when I asked him for towels. Mind you I didnt request room service I also mentioned to the manager I was a germaphobe when checking in. I told him I like to give the room a once over where ever I was staying even if its visible clean. The following day I woke up and I heard a noise at my door. I made sure the do not disturb sign was at my door . It sounded like someone was about to open my door. I said hello can I help whoever at my door. When I opened the door the house-keeper was at my door just standing there. I also notice the manager standing directly behind her on the porch which was odd. The house-keeper apologized and I threw away trash. I had to run errands and when I got back around 4 pm. I met the manager we both entered the property at the same time. He ran out his car and was hurrying toward the office. I walked toward my room and swipe my key card and it was on red and I couldn't get into my room. I stood there for about 5 minutes in the cold.

Expensive room and not clean ! Flies in the room, dusty, hair in the shower. Left my speaker called immediately after I checked out to get it back and “it was not there.” Absolutely terrible experience. I will delete this review if they give me my speaker back.

Our room was clean, well appointed and recently updated. The microwave and mini fridge made the stay much more convenient and affordable. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was good but the coffee was outstanding. Definitely my first choice next time I visit Long Island.

front desk concierge was excellent, check in was easy and room was cleaned after the first night. unfortunately i ended up having to leave after my first night due to the noise. the walls are paper thin and you can hear every word spoken in the room next to you. the shared wifi was not secure and i have been getting numerous hacking attempts for multiple accounts. wouldn't stay again but the location was great. very cute town.
