This property was nearly perfect. Our bed was small for a queen and uncomfortable. The pillows were flat. But the room was excellent and clean. The staff very friendly. The shower had good water pressure and heated quickly. The balcony allowed fresh air into the room. The continental breakfast was just that but the bagels and muffins were fresh.

Location is everything

Nice place with great access to the coast. Bicycles were welcome. Continental breakfast got us going. The room was neat and clean. Elevators nearby. Hot tub was warm and the pool cool. Tub did not blow air. No drying towels found poolside. Covered parking. A great stay.

Conveniently located and VERY quiet. Rooms are outdated but roomy, and the beds are super comfy! Having coffee and pastries in the morning is a nice addition that not many other places include. Can’t beat the price.

Stayed here for years and always love it. It is out in a quiet neighborhood and a short walk from downtown Pacific Grove and we even walk into Monterey. The ocean is a few blocks away and even a lighthouse. It never changes and we love that.

Old school charm, clean large room, great staff, oh did i say clean? We arrived late so didnt get to enjoy the pool, hot tub or sauna but the bed was amazing! Breakfast was good enough, want a full beeakfast plan to done out. 24 hour liquor store down the road. Ceiling fan no AC but ots the bay, open the sliding door and your good. Fireplace was nice but I recommend you bring fire wood or a couple duraflame logs as the one provided didn't last long. Overall no complaints and im picky about clean. Would stay again, plan on it.
