Definitely one of the nicer Inns on the upper end of the Monterey Peninsula. Will stay here again!
Pros:

Definitely one of the nicer Inns on the upper end of the Monterey Peninsula. Clean, comfortable lodging and staff are very friendly. Walking distance to Asilomar Beach, the Lighthouse and the beautiful sunsets, and close to the shops and restaurants in Pacific Grove.

Cons:

Parking is tight, and like all of the Inns and Lodges in the area it is showing its age, although owners have been doing a good job of keeping up with remodels and repairs.

We chose this Inn based on the trip advisor reviews and awards. We were not disappointed. The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms are very clean.. They gave us our choice of rooms and told us to look at each and decide which one we wanted.

Great little inn!
Pros:

The room had many small touches that made it more comfortable - glass and mugs instead of paper cups, excellent Keurig coffee, newly renovated facilities. Friendly hosts and cleaning ladies, walking distance to the beach. Good assortment of breakfast items to bring back to the room. Little seating area in front of rooms to eat in the sunshine. Lovely flowers and plants and pavers for the parking lot/drive instead of asphalt.

Cons:

The onsite EV charger unfortunately didn't work for our rental EV, make sure you have an adapter for Tesla.
