Great location close to the beach/tidepools for morning walks and walkable to restaurants in Pacific Grove. I really appreciated the accessible and convenient car chargers. Room was nice with a working fireplace and a wood supply which we used each night. Will definitely stay here again!

Really nice inn, big rooms with comfortable beds and very clean bathroom. We liked the microwave, fridge and popcorn machine as well as the fireplace (but we didn't use the latter two). Breakfast was tasty and they have a wine happy hour from 5-7 pm. Nice pool in the middle of the property. Close to supermarkets, the 17 mile drive and Carmel and Monterey centers. Thoroughly recommend!! Thanks also to the kind housekeeping!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was very clean and we were given fresh towels even though we did not leave the used towels on the floor. The breakfast was delicious with make your own waffles, cereals, muffins etc., and good coffee! They also had popcorn along with the maker in the room which was a nice touch. Beds were very comfortable. Extra bonus was the bus stop that was about 25 yards from the inn and made it very convenient to catch the bus that takes you into Monterey so we didn't have the hassle of finding/paying for parking. Lastly, the inn was just a short walk to the amazing Asilomar State Beach.

Clean newly renovated rooms, peaceful surroundings and quiet property. Saw deer family near the property and close proximity to the beautiful Alisomar state beach. Breakfast has waffles daily, coffee, cocoa for the kids. You can see the sun setting over the trees from the windows of the 2nd story room.

This lodging is a wonderful place to stay! The property is old and dated but it adds to it's charm. It's kept clean and in good repair. The complementary wine at check in until 7pm, wood burning fireplace with extra wood, free in room air-pop popcorn maker and nice breakfast were wonderful highlights. Would gladly stay here again!

Staff provided a box fan which was needed and appreciated. Property was in a nice central location not to far from all things needed stores, Beaches ect.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The facility has some age on it, but it is well maintained. The location is a little out of the way, but it is close to a beautiful stretch of rugged beach. Unfortunately, the weather was not what we expected as it was overcast and hovering in the 60's. Maybe more research on our part would have had us better prepared. There was only one decent restaurant within walking distance of the hotel, but other eatery options were not too far of a drive. The breakfast was above average with a couple of tasty pastries and other typical items. It was scenic and relaxing location if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle.
