We liked the balcony view and the close drive to the ocean. The staff was very friendly. The manager Even spoke with my husband about her family and my husband showed her an app on his phone about baseball cards auctions. Even though they don't advertise it. There is a mini breakfast, they are packed in cute boxes with a croissant, Bay Belle cheese, a little heart cookie, and mints. There is coffee and boxes of honest juice with a bowl of apples if you want.

I wasn't a fan of the room. There were a lot of defects in the room. The headboard to one of the beds had holes in it, the wicker chair was falling apart on the leg, the "bar" sink leaked even though we didn't use it. The holes in the bathroom door. The dressers had stains and scuffed up tops. The slider screen door didn't shut all the way. I think they need some remodeling. The rooms have potential but this trip didn't wow me.

The idea of the "French" family was to find the American-style motel off the beaten path. So, we weren't disappointed. Close to Monterey, Carmel, and the 17 Mile Drive. The US-made motel is ideally located, with comfortable beds, spacious rooms, coffee maker... everything is perfect... with peace and quiet (in May). A big thank you to the reception team who connected us on the chat for our arrival.

It was convenient, clean, and quiet. Although there weren’t many people staying in the area I was, it was a good night’s sleep. Like 10 to 15 mins walk to the beach, passing a cemetery. lol. I wish I could have stayed longer to explore more of the area.

Tight parking spaces if packed, but the whole area seemed like that anyways.

We liked the size of our room- it was a king suite with a balcony. It was clean and had a nice outlook. It was quiet. We liked being able to walk by the lighthouse to the beaches. We also walked down the beautiful coast paths to Monterey.

The rooms could use a bit of an update they are looking a little tired and the bathrooms are small. Our friend’s room had a door that was the sliding window onto the walkway which was not so good. The breakfast box croissants were a little dry and could have used some jam or marmalade.

Staff was very friendly. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. We were visiting a friend and the location was very close to where she lives.

It would have been ideal if there would have been an elevator. We were on the second floor and there was a lot of stairs to carry our suitcases up. Because of our age, it made it a little difficult. Next time, I’ll ask for the ground floor.

It was nice to have a little snack (and different than bagels or donuts) as we headed out to get breakfast. We loved our balcony and view of the ocean....that was a super sweet treat. Location was awesome. Loved that it was a Lodge feeling instead of a hotel. quiet, clean, and comfortable!

The price.....much higher because of the 3 day weekend.

Cute quaint property nestled in a neighborhood very close to beautiful beaches. Second story room had large deck with great view of ocean and high ceiling in room. Not fancy but I thought it was nice for the price.

Bed was comfy but worn mattress cover and box springs uncovered and bare which felt odd. Shutters on patio door are nice looking for beachy airy vibe but make for a very bright morning. Staff not on site after 6pm until morning. I would stay here again though.

The view from our room on the second floor had a direct view of the ocean. Quiet and peaceful.

The rooms are layered in different levels, and so it's easy to see each other's rooms if the windows and doors aren't closed off with shutters since our rooms.had balconies. The shower is low, so it is not ideal for tall people.

The rooms were very clean and very comfy! I especially loved the balcony, along with the view. Such a great stay, with a great price!

The phones were not connected, and didn't seem to work the whole time we stayed there. So calling for room service, or calling for anything was not an option. But other than that, we were truly satisfied with our stay here.

I loved the locations, the staff was fantastic and I loved the sliding glass door room entry. It was very close to the beach and downtown. It is also located next to a great little resturant.

They did not offer breakfast as listed, the sliding screen door did not close due to being off the tracks and there were ants all over the room.
