“For budget-conscious travelers, The Shores Inn provides a functional base a short stroll from Ventura's sandy beach. Rooms offer in-room entertainment via Fire Stick-equipped TVs, and some even include jacuzzi jets. I think the inn's proximity to the beach and the added benefit of free parking make it a sensible option, particularly for short stays.”
