What a cute property. Everyone was nice, the room spacious, comfortable, clean, and had a wood burning fireplace. This hotel is one block from Asilomar State Park beach and so much quieter than staying in Monterey itself; and yet a 6-10 minute drive to shopping and dining. And, who doesn't love wine in the lobby daily at 4pm? We highly recommend this property. Oh, and its dog friendly.

Cosy, clean room with fireplace. I appreciated light breakfast and coffee, and that the place is dog friendly. Asilomar is a few minutes walk away, my favorite place. Easy drive to PG, Monterey and Carmel
Will stay again
