9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,442 reviews)
The Shashi Hotel is a lovely place. My two main concerns were the cleanliness of certain surfaces and the fragrance wafting throughout the property. As someone with fragrance sensitivities including migraines and hives I’m not likely to return unless that changes. It is walking distance to the shoreline which was nice for the concert we went to.
