Unfortunately, we were placed very close to the continental breakfast area so it got pretty loud in the morning. Also, some in the areas in the hallway were not quite vacuumed. If you have dust mite allergies, take allergy meds.

The only downside to the stay was that the hot tub drain was making a loud annoying noise. Hard to relax completely and enjoy the hot tub with the noise.

Loved everything except the beds hurt my back so I didn’t sleep well. But everything was clean and peaceful and the pool hot tub and sauna were awesome. Loved my fireplace in the room and sweet peaceful little balcony. Continental breakfast was better than basic!

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 Rooms are outdated but roomy, and the beds are super comfy!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.
