We stayed here for three nights in February with two dogs in a king bed cottage. Overall we had a really nice stay and would definitely come again. There was a small patio outside our room and we were able to easily walk to a beautiful trail that overlooks the ocean…which I did every morning with the dogs!

Wonderful stay! Very cute and quiet!

Wonderful place to stay on a Monterey getaway. We will definitely be back! Kitchen stocked with the right amount to cook a quick meal, and all restaurants/attractions are very close. They even are pet friendly and have EV charging (you will need a mobile charger) plugs! Very clean and friendly staff.

Almost perfect

Location is fantastic! So close to the beach and a quick drive to Monterey & Carmel. Surrounding neighborhood is extremely quiet. Excellent place to stay if you have a dog. Only one con: the bedding is washed in heavily fragranced detergent. We had to go to Target and get an air purifier & sheets because my son and I had headaches due to the laundry chemicals.

Bide a wee is a well run, quiet and affordable option walkable to downtown Pacific Grove (about 20 min). 20 min Uber to Carmel. The heating setup in our oom was funky and a spare blanket would have helped. That said we would stay again

I stayed in an upstairs room in a queen room. The room is small but it has everything. The bed was of the right support, so it is nice. The water pressure in the shower was good, a definite plus. Unfortunately there were two upstairs units, and the wall was thin, so I could hear the neighbors talking. The property is one block away from Asilomar State Beach, so it’s a nice walk to see sunset and crushing waves.

The front desk staff could definitely use a few courses on customer service and just plain old friendliness, but besides that, this motel/hotel is really nice considering the price. The bed was very comfortable, mattress was nice and soft. The neighbourhood couldn’t be better. Nice property overall.
