The stay was amazing. The maids were quick to make the bed and replace towels. Short walk to the beach and a little restaurant as well. The only thing I have to complain about is the parking, if there isn't enough room on the street they have a lot under the hotel and they only have one way in and one way out so you better have someone watching for you. read more

We stayed at Lovers Point Inn April 2026. Unfortunately,the room had a strong musty, moldy odor from the moment we arrived. The heater in our room also produced a smoke smell when turned on. The air quality made it difficult to sleep, and we ended up opening the windows to try to air out the room. That helped with the smell but left us dealing with cold temperatures and outside noise throughout the night. During our stay, both our friends and I became sick, which raised concerns about the air quality and overall condition of the rooms. What was most disappointing was the lack of customer service. We called multiple times and left messages requesting that a manager contact us regarding the issues and a partial refund. We were told the manager was in a meeting until 1 PM and would call us back. We never received a return call. We followed up with additional phone calls, left more messages, and even sent an email. None of our attempts received a response. The location is beautiful and is the property's strongest feature. Unfortunately, the room conditions and lack of management response overshadowed the experience. For the price we paid, the accommodations felt more comparable to a Motel 6 than a coastal hotel charging premium rates. Problems happen at every hotel. What matters is how management responds. In our case, despite multiple calls, messages, and emails, no one ever followed up. That level of customer service is unacceptable. Based on our experience, I would not stay here again. read more

The only good thing about this place is the location. The rooms are very dated. The whole motel is in need of renovations or a deep cleaning. The walls are also very thin. You can hear everyone on every side of you. But the problem with our stay was the service. We tried to see if we could check in a little early. Nothing wrong with trying. When we got there, the front desk was helping another group check in early, with an enthusiastic attitude. When it came to us, they treated us like a major inconvenience and like we were doing something wrong. They made it known that it was too early to check in but they'd see. They very rudely said you're two hours early, they're still cleaning, come back later. The group before us didn't pay for early check in but they were helped with a positive attitude. And they weren't given the reminder that they're early. Also while we were being "helped" we parked in the space clearly stated for registration. Well the owner yelled from her car to the front desk that someone's parked in her spot. I told her we're checking in and she huffed. We moved our car and had to park down the street just so the owner could park in a guest parking spot. We would've stayed elsewhere if we had the opportunity. Will never return. read more

They stated we would have hot water by Monday, today is Monday and there is still no hot water. It's cold outside and we have to come in and shower with cold water. Never again. Before checking out I usually remove all the bedding and pillow cases to help out because my mom used to be a housekeeper and I know that's what they're supposed to do and to my surprise the pillows and cover had holes everywhere. read more

We made a quick, impromptu trip up to Monterey during Spring Break, and we expected it to be crowded and expensive. We were able to book a room here a week in advance, and not only was it affordable, but the rooms were nice and less than a block from the beach. What more could we ask for? Our room was bigger than expected with a refrigerator and a stand-up shower. We booked a second floor room, so you could see a bit of the ocean from our window, which was beautiful. Parking was surprisingly easy (and most importantly, free!). They have some hotel-only spots in front, and if those are full, they have a small parking garage underneath the hotel that was never anywhere near to being full. It was such a nice treat on top of the already reasonable hotel fees. The hotel was walking distance to Lovers Point Park as well as a bunch of little shops and businesses in Pacific Grove. Each morning we got up, we picked a new cafe in the area and walked over for breakfast. Does it come with all the bells and whistles? No. But for a budget hotel that has a great location, is clean and comfortable, and has easy & free parking? Fit out goal perfectly. Would definitely stay here again on a return trip. read more

The wife and I stayed there last week for two nights. The location was great. The Hotel Sucked.. extremely noisy. The restaurant next door gets delivery at 500am OMG they are noisy. There is a delivery service right in front of the hotel. They start loading at 600am. The room above ours sounded like they were building furniture ALL NIGHT. The fan in the bathroom was broken or out of balance. It sounded like a truck engine. When we talked to the front desk the first morning the clerk just didn't care. He looked like he had not bathed in days, teeth greener than Shreks. They never cleaned our room. The beds are like a rock. Pillows are micro size. I know it sound like I'm exaggerating but honestly I'm not. The location was great. But the Hotel and staff was horrible. read more

I stayed at lovers point in for two nights in March recently and really enjoyed the hotel. The staff was super friendly and we had an absolutely amazing view from our second floor hotel room. The beds were super comfortable and the rooms were nicely decorated. We felt the rooms were quite reasonable compared to other hotels in the area, which were nowhere near the beach. read more

Me and my fiancé stayed here during our trip and lets just say I was definitely grossed out. Upon arriving when it was time for bed I noticed a small hair when I lifted the sheets. Then when I proceeded to scan the rest of the bed I found more hairs... and remind you this was under the covers and we had not used the bed yet at all. Other than that room was outdated. But the whole hair scenario did it for me. read more

Overall the rooms were okay. I will say the carpet felt dirty and I did see some stains in the sheets. I did like the fact that it is so close to lovers point and how we can walk to the beach. read more

We spent our anniversary in the balcony room and it was great for us! It's definitely a little hodge podge with the upgrades and my husband did clean the seagull droppings of the arm of the balcony so we could car and people watch . I do wish the blinds had a string and I wish the vertical blinds weren't completely broken. Overall we had a wonderful time and the manager was so kind to let us check in early! We enjoyed sitting on the balcony! read more

Absolutely DO NOT Stay Here - Anniversary Trip Ruined I booked the Luxury Room at Lovers Inn for our anniversary and requested an early check-in. When we arrived, the man at the front counter informed us that the room wouldn't be ready until probably after the regular 4 PM check-in time. He offered us another room, saying it was "still okay" - but it was definitely not what I booked. We reluctantly accepted the switch, but the room was a huge disappointment. It smelled awful, had outdoor furniture inside (yes, really), was small, dingy, and nothing close to "luxury." You could barely see the ocean from afar. That night, we tried to rest - but at 5 AM, we were woken up by people standing right outside our door loudly discussing where to get coffee. That lasted about 5 minutes. Then at 5:45 AM, we were woken again by kids in the next room yelling, jumping, and playing like it was midday. The walls are paper thin - we could hear everything. I tried to call the front desk, but guess what? The room phone doesn't even work - it's just for looks. So I had to get up, walk downstairs half asleep, and ring the bell twice before someone finally came to the door. I explained what was happening and was told they need TWO complaints to even consider speaking to the guests causing the noise. Are you kidding? At that point, my trip was already ruined. I said I didn't want to continue the stay, and the staff member said, "Okay, I took it off" and told me to check out. We left around 9:30 AM. When I asked the new front desk guy to confirm I wasn't being charged, he said no, but when I asked if he was the manager, he said no and just handed me a card to email the manager - that's the only way to reach them. Well now I am still in a battle with the manager through email to get back the second night of my stay because yes, I was charged. This was supposed to be a special anniversary trip, and it turned into a total disaster. Between the broken amenities, poor customer service, awful room conditions, and thin walls, it was one of the worst experiences I've had at a hotel. Save yourself the stress. DO NOT STAY HERE. I'll be sharing this whole experience on Instagram and TikTok as well. read more

You CANNOT beat the view or proximity to the Lover's Point Beach and walking trail because it's directly on....Lover's Point! This is an OG hotel BUT they have put in the wonderful upgrades -- GREAT beds and bedding and linens, a must!! Most rooms now have high end quality luxury vinyl flooring, and did I mention VIEWS no matter the room! I shouldn't be giving this review because at this writing, the rates are ... You will not be disappointed! read more

The rooms were just beautiful, neat and clean with such a beachy theme... The location is TOP TIER! the views amazing directly across the street from the ocean, employees helpful and friendly! My NEW GO TO FOR EVERY TRIP TO MONTEREY! read more

A terrible Inn that I do not recommend to anyone. Disable parking are away from the only closet size elevator of a third floor building, where our room was located. Highly not suitable for persons with disabilities. Very tiny room for a price of $236 per night. Bed sheets found with dirt marks and bottom sheets with hairs. Blinds were missing parts that prevented room privacy from the street. The building is located in a nice area but owners don't seem to care for maintaining or improving the room accommodations. No one was available to change the sheets and front desk person suggested we change them. We canceled our reservation and checked out of the room. The front desk person was very sympathetic and understanding, he refunded our charges. read more

Why would you complain about this place? It's a two star hotel and people are expecting 5 star amenities. Room was clean, beds soft, view of the ocean. Parking under building. My gosh, what more do you want?! read more

Don't stay here!!! Go elsewhere!! Filthy. Stinks. Run down. Terrible plumbing. Walked in then walked quickly out. Wouldn't give a refund. I left before the bed bugs bit! Spoke to two different employees and they were rude and very unprofessional. I'm amazed the health department hasn't closed this place down!! One star goes to my review! read more

Way too expensive for a mediocre experience. The only good thing about booking here is the location. I feel as if I would've had a better time at the motel next door. For the amount of money they charged for this room, they failed to disclose to me that I was sharing a door with an entire family in the next room over. Not being able to sleep because I hear an air mattress pump, children screaming, and a mother repeatedly yelling profanities at children wasn't how I imagined my vacation. When complaining about the excessive noise, we were told there's nothing they can do as it wasn't "quiet hours". Even though the noise didn't stop from 8pm-6am. Can't even say you get what you pay for read more

Highlights-location was nice. We saw dolphins off the coast through the tiny speck of an ocean view. We could walk to the aquarium. That's about it. We really felt worried for our safety with a group of people riding around. Very worried about damage to our car. The place is SO run down. Peeling paint, rust faucets. And paper thin walls. The neighbors started yelling and laughing about 1030 and did not stop until after midnight. The bed is right next to the door so every person who walks by can be heard. I would not mind if it were a budget hotel but it was 260 a night. In the morning I wanted to talk to the front desk but he was dismissive and didn't want to converse at all. It looks nothing like the pictures. read more

The cost of almost $200 is pretty much just for the location... because it definitely isn't for anything about the room. Top deadbolt doesn't work, dirty pillow cases and very stuffy room for starters. Service at the front desk was the only saving grace, as he was very nice and helpful at check-in. Wish I would have noticed the dirty pillow earlier in the day. Website photos are definitely deceiving. They don't portray reality in my opinion. The room does have a tower fan at least to stir around the stuffiness, though the fog and mist rolled in so the room was better by the time I got back in the evening. (Left the windows open to air out.) There's something that beeps consistently (I think it's the multi outlet contraption they have plugged in over the counter.) Annoying but I can fortunately fall asleep fairly easily when exhausted. Mattress was definitely too hard for me. Not comfortable at all and the most tossing and turning I've done in a while. Equivalent to sleeping on maybe a pad on the ground. If I needed a room and couldn't find anything anywhere else, I'd stay, but it's not a place I'll ever actively seek out again (even with the location). Also experienced multiple power outages (though I imagine not the fault of the hotel). read more

We stayed Thursday through Saturday after Christmas. They were in the middle of a remodel, but still, the hotel was clean and quiet. The staff was friendly and very helpful. We weren't bothered by other guests and the parking was close and free. Our bathroom was small, but even that isn't a complaint, just an observation. We were on the third floor and the view was amazing! The Inn overlooks the ocean but is minutes from shopping and food. We have already recommended Lover's Point, and will definitely stay again. read more

Looks nothing like the picture online. We passed it not realizing it was the motel. It is very rundown on the outside! Room inside was somewhat renovated but also falling apart in other areas. TV was on top of closet with horrible reception. The only plus was the view and the close walk to Lovers Point. read more

Loved the location of this place. Was in walking distance of the beach, trails and cafes and restaurants. I did my research before staying here so I knew what I was getting. It served its purpose, we slept. The toilet was an issue. It kept getting plugged up and we finally asked for a plunger. We had issues with it all night which sucked we had to keep unplugging it. Nonetheless we had a great visit in Monterey and we did have a great view. Will consider staying here again read more

NO. OH NO. Dank dirty disgusting. Like something that only shows up in your worst nightmare. The place looked shady with a Park at your own Risk sign beside the side parking lot. Your "Ocean View is blocked by another inn. The carpets are.... Filthy. A deep black bespeckled foul swelling moldy mildew atrocity. You have been warned. read more

ABSOLUTELY NOT. I didn't even stay here because a few hours after booking the hotel I get a call saying there is no hot water and I could either get a FULL refund or 50 percent off. I decided to go with another hotel and still got charged. After disputing it with my bank they charged me again and stated it wasn't refundable. Since I have no proof, conformation was over the phone, they said there is nothing I can do. Shitty place but even shittier service. I would give it zero stars if I could. read more

First of all, Location, Location, Location! I love the fact it is across from Lover's Point Park and Beach, our fav place to go with everything all in one place. Yes, it is a budget motel, but it has been updated and our room was very clean. The people working there were more than nice and personally helped me out without issue. (I have mobility issues and use a scooter). I plan to return on my next visit to Pacific Grove! read more

I brought my mom to Pacific grove for a few days and decided to stay here. It is within steps to the water. The view from my room was incredible. It's an older place so expect that. And if your looking for the Ritz Carlton for this price...your looking in the wrong place. I knew we would only be sleeping and showering here so I did not want to spend a fortune while staying close to the water. They no longer offer breakfast here...probably to not spend the money...but its nice to try the local food. They have some great places that are close. If you want some amazing clam chowder try vivolos. It's literally a couple blocks away and was so good. The room was clean and had no bad odor. I could not get the heater to work...but the man at the counter tried to fix it...he ended up getting the space heater from the office and that worked great. He was really nice and helpful. There is coffee in the room but I brought my own coffee grounds and creamer. The rooms do have a fridge...iron...blow dryer and tv. I brought one if the chairs on the deck each morning while drinking my coffee. I would definitely stay here again. It's so close to everything. read more

We had a wedding party stay there. All of our vehicles got their windows smashed out. Total of 5 cars. The office is right there. It's was likely a inside job. They skipped over other cars there and just got ours. Beds are hard. Rooms are gross. I would sleep outside before I would go back there and stay. Ernie Costa. read more

This is not a fist time we were stating at this hotel, but i first time all rooms on our floor was smelled with strong cleaning solution (chemicals), we addressed this issue to customer service, very rude lady said: "Pay additional $500 and we will change your room to something else, or other wise go to emergency room if it make you sick or something". I was shocked of their disrespect and unprofessional manners. It was so rude!!!! I was so disappointed and I'm not sure if want to comeback again. read more

Booked a room directly through the hotel, by telephone. Daniel at the front desk told us that the more expensive, third floor rooms all had ocean views. Photos of our view from room 308 are attached. As you can see, our view was of the elevator, which presented both safety and privacy concerns as people waiting for the elevator looked directly into our room. Hotel manager, Luis Cruz, gets a solid 'fail' for customer service. There are definitely better options in the neighborhood. If you decide to risk it and book a room here, do yourself a favor and get written confirmation of any services you are promised. We won't be returning. read more

The carpet is a bit dirty, still Still a bunch of hair on the floor by the table and window. Room was pretty cold, luckily they have a small portable heater you can move closer to you. Shower wouldn't get very warm, only recommend using it maybe during summer on hot days if you don't wanna freeze yourself. Nice friendly staff at check in and check out. The bed was made nice. They had a small fridge and microwave. But you cant beat tre lcoation! Walking distance to water read more

Lovers Point Inn - Hotels Near Me - Pacific Grove, California

I recently booked a stay at this hotel for my 9-year anniversary with my wife, but my experience so far has been less than satisfactory, and I haven't even checked in yet. When I called to inform the hotel that I would be bringing my service animal, I was told by the manager, Louis, that there would be a $40 cleaning fee. Despite my explanation that it is illegal to charge additional fees for service animals, Louis rudely argued with me and suggested canceling my reservation, which is only a few days away. As someone who relies on my service animal for medical alerts, this situation has caused me a great deal of stress and uncertainty. I sincerely hope that when I arrive, the hotel honors the ADA regulations, waives the fee, and accommodates my service animal appropriately. I'll update this review after my stay to reflect the outcome, but at this moment, I am very concerned about the level of service and understanding of disability rights at this hotel **** Update, after reading other peoples reviews, I decided against staying at Lovers Point Inn and I reported them to the DOJ for violating the ADA title 3. read more

UGH if I could give this establishment a negative rating it would be a negative review of 1. And that is Being generous, I'm only this because two front fest attendants we very nice. I arrived at the hotel late Thursday evening. Was placed on the first floor, fine, however, I found out that on the first floor none of the rooms are the rooms pictures on the the website, or on any third party website. That's false advertising. My second evening there, we were greeted by a handful of cockroaches Crawling through the decrepit fan that was somewhat still attached to the wall. See attached photos and video. $1400 reservation. We immediately left and had to book a room for two nights until this situation was resolved. Still isn't resolved at the moment. They haven't offered any additional compensation or anything as of yet. I cannot believe the incompetence of the hospitality industry. It makes me sick. Please can people have some decency? read more

This hotel gets a Rating of F. We had reservations to stay for two nights. We checked in on 2/10/24 and we were asked to leave that very same night! We had found bedbugs on the white bed sheets! Originally, we were moved to another room and as my husband and I had moved everything over to the new room, the clerk told us that we had to leave the hotel. He gave us some story that we had been knocking on doors and telling other guests that we had found bedbugs, which is crazy. So, at midnight, my husband and I had to find another place to stay! We were told that we could watch us on camera "knocking on doors" the next morning when the manager was present but, the manager was out of town the next morning. Anne Marie C read more

The motel is gross. The hot water didn't work, there was no parking, the decor outdated and super small rooms and bathrooms. The worst thing was the 2 hour long line you had to stand in to ck in.

The ONLY perk is location, as you will see on most of their other reviews. My husband and I came to Monterey for our first get away after starting a family. The pictures on their website are beyond deceiving. And I tried to do my research- disappointed I didn't think to look at yelp. The hotel is no better than your average motel 6, which sadly I think I've had better stays at. Out dated, dirty, even grungy I'd say. Our king room, 169 for Friday night, 229 for Saturday night was supposed to have ocean view... no. We had the view of their laundry room and a stair well. Wanted to take a relaxing bath, the bathroom fan was rattling so loud you opted to have the light off while in using the bathroom. So no bath. Even rushed through a shower because it was so obnoxious. Continental breakfast composed of hard boiled eggs and toast. The power flickered off and on all night long, so we got tired of resetting the clock in the room and ended up watching Netflix on our phones instead of using the TV. Walls are indeed paper thin, which is not fun for a romantic weekend... we heard every step from those heading to the stairwell right outside our door.... So no. We will not be staying again. read more

We checked in rooms we're not like the picture on the website we didn't see anything because they let us in early. The rooms were over priced. It should be like an $80 room regarding the next morning. The showers were so hot with no cold water we can even shower. We went to the front desk and let them know and they said there's no maintenance on in the manager was not able to get a hold of. We asked for another room to at least shower before we left and they had no rooms available for that. They said location is wonderful and that's maybe why the price was what it was but do you wanna ride for this room is not worth it at all especially not gonna shower for the rest of the day read more
