Had a wonderful stay at this hotel the night before our whale watching experience (dock is a 10-15 minute walk away). The receptionist and owner were polite and friendly and could not do enough for us. There was water bottles in the room, the room was spacious and clean. There is a hot drinks machine in the lobby and a small snack/medicine/gift shop. Parking was plentiful and easy. Would recommend and stay again. Great hospitality.

A really friendly welcome from the reception team and a super hotel that exceeded expectations and the website photos. Huge room with excellent facilities and a very large, comfortable bed. Breakfast was generous and plentiful. Guests were a little cramped at peak times in the communal breakfast area.

Really nice clean and modern with round the clock tea and coffee access, if you can make the busses into town work for you then this is a great place to stay we found it very easy and it was all booked at a very good price with big family rooms.

Lovely accommodation with a comfy bed and a great shower! All facilities were available in the room. Clean and tidy but maybe a little tired. Would def stay there again.

Just a single night stay but great nonetheless. We did the 17 mile drive on electric bikes rented from "Big Sur" so the hotel location for this was excellent. Very large and clean room. Grab and go breakfast box was an added bonus and nice touch. Free parking.

It was the cheapest place we could find for Monterey car week. It couldn’t have been better. Really well placed, easy to see the cars and from the balcony facing the road you could see the odd spot of racing. My wife said it was the best sleep she had had so far in our 3 week trip.

Very helpful gentleman on checking in.
The room we had was cottage with a fireplace. I loved the fireplace - it’s a gas fire which starts up at the flick of a switch.
The cottages were over the road from the check in / main hotel. Most cottages were up a flight of stairs, and you park the car underneath.
Our room was really spacious. The bed was comfy, but I think the pillows need replacing.
The location is wonderful - Pacific Grove and Monterey are lovely!!
