Excelente
Pros:

Me encantó hospedarme en Pacific Grove, el hotel se siente como cabañitas rústicas y la chimenea es un plus que nos gustó mucho. La zona es muy tranquila, el cuarto era amplio y estaba muy limpio. El desayuno era lo clásico que ofrecen en los hoteles pero suficiente para iniciar el día.

Perfect stay for Carmel/Pacific Grove/Monterey trip
Pros:

LOCATION was terrific for our Carmel/Pacific Grove/Monterey trip. Loved that the beach (BEAUTIFUL) was in walking distance , other sites a short drive away. We stayed in the 2 bdrm suite , very spacious , had full kitchen. Very quiet area. Parking was available on site. Breakfast while limited was a welcomed convenience. Staff were kind and helpful.

Cons:

Nothing! (In a perfect world, water pressure could be higher, beds could get new mattresses, but even without these things, I would still rate our stay a 10 )

Will be back! A great place to stay!
Pros:

It was perfect! We got a two bedroom apartment, with an equipped kitchen. It was spacious, clean, comfortable, but also very cozy. It’s a nice property and a good value too. We also loved the two hot tubs!

A comfortable, quiet spot located close to Asilomar beach.
Pros:

The room was spacious and comfortable. There was a fireplace but the weather was beautiful so we didn't use it.
The breakfast was good - waffle machine better than average.

Cons:

Our television didn't work. The staff tried to repair but couldn't, and there was no vacancy so we couldn't change rooms.

Comfy bed in large & quiet room in traditional and established motel
Pros:

Comfy bed in large & quiet room in traditional and established motel. Filter coffee in room, fair breakfast and easy parking. The location was excellent - close to wonderful stretch of coast and a short drive to downtown Pacific Grove and restaurants. Complimentary wine hour was a nice touch.

Cons:

Carpet in our room was stained, which brought our score down a notch.

Pros:

Although dated, the room was comfortable and quiet. The good breakfast was continental, with the addition of make-your-own waffles. The hotel isn't 'across from the beach' but it is close by,

Ottima posizione, ma attenti ai rumori tra una stanza e l’altra
Pros:

Posizione, tranquillità. Colazione accettabile.

Cons:

Struttura datata, necessita urgentemente di rinnovamento e di insonorizzazione tra le stanze: notevole disturbo tra una stanza e l’altra

Well located facility near the water and convenient
Pros:

The facility is nicely located a block in from the road which runs along the oceanfront and a five minute drive from downtown. The room was very large and with a nice fireplace and a comfortable bed .

Cons:

The furniture in the room while comfortable seemed like a collection of different types that was not very well decorated.
