This is an older property, clean and cozy. Very quiet area. Not as close to the beach as I thought it was going to be. Too far to walk with our beach stuff. The front desk people were very friendly. I would stay here again.

The hotel is close to beach where you should watch the beautiful sunset. The staff was super helpful and help us to stay on the same room when we decided to extend our stay for one more day and we booked a different room type. The property is quiet and walkable even it is close to the beautiful coastline.

The hotel is close to beach where you should never miss the sunset. The staff is great. We decided to extend our stay for on e more day and they helped us to stay in the dame room even when we booked a different room type. The town is quiet and safe. Take a walk around the property and you may be greeted by deers.

Very old rundown property! room #117 was old with peeling paint, carpet was extremely old and dirty, T.V is old and every channel was grainy. I know Pacific Grove is relatively safe but a single turn key doorknob lock thats super old didn't feel safe, nor did our vaulables when we left the room, which just highlights the owners lack of simple investments in their property. The entire stay when in the room all we heard was the thudding and creaking off the floors from people walking around above us. Was NOT pleasant, quiet or relaxing. If you value these things I'd stay somewhere else. I'm surprised this place is still in business giving the incredible lodging all over PG. Won't be staying ever again.

Felt cottagy and homey. Great balcony with water view. Convenient location to pacific grove and monterey sights and 17 mile drive. Frig and microwave in room, as well as a little sink in "kitchen" area. Gave great boxed breakfast with croissant, cookie, cheese, and fruit, coffee, and juice boxes to grab. Would have liked to stay there again.

I enjoyed my stay there. I had a late arrival, so I was set up for check in through a lock box. When I checked out, that’s where I did the “check in” process. I didn’t mind but I would have liked to be informed prior instead of having to drop my keys off, then the worker had to go chase me down after I was already settled in my car, ready to go.

Beautiful place to stay. Clean inside. Friendly employees. Had problems getting channels to work but cleaning service person came over and assisted. Parking is tight when busy . Had a family close by that was loud but that happens everywhere. The atmosphere was calming and close to beach and eateries. Safe to walking the area. Just a few deers roaming.thumbs up!

The Olympia Lodge was comfortable and the location was close to the beach. I wish the complimentary breakfast had been more robust and offered in a larger timeframe, but the rest of the stay was very enjoyable. I would visit the Lodge again in the future.
