This is what I get for booking a last minute reservation without checking yelp first! Oh no she didn't?! Yes, I did :-(. Never again... We decided on a last minute romantic trip to Pacific Grove and I got caught up in the online cyber Monday deals. I didn't bother to verify the hotels on Yelp, but simply booked the hotel based on the pictures on the website and trip advisor... Boy was that a mistake. Don't judge me, I was tired and in a rush! Right when we arrived I already knew it wasn't going to be anything like what we thought. First off, it was a motel, not a hotel (cringes). As soon as we checked into our room a strong smell of bleach wafted over. It was clean, but it felt as though someone had to dump a bucket of cleaner inside of the room to do so. The bed was comfy, but there was a questionable stain on the sheet, just a tiny spot, but still (eeeek!). The water pressure in the shower was weak and the water never got quite hot enough (mind you this was at the end of November, so it did get quite cold at night). The thermostat also liked to shut itself off in the middle of night, letting the room temp drop to 59/60 on its own! Leaving us to freeze and wonder what was going on?! Lol. The worst part were the walls, they were paper thin! You could hear absolutely everything your neighbor and the people outside were doing and saying. My man is a very light sleeper and he was absolutely miserable. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the location is fantastic. Lovers point is absolutely gorgeous and literally a few steps away. You do get free continental breakfast and parking here. But the breakfast is just the normal cereals, toast, etc, and the parking in front of the building was always full! The parking garage looked very narrow and hard to get into, so we didn't even bother, we just parked out on the street. If you get to stay on the top floor in the ocean view suites, I'm sure it'd be a totally different much more pleasurable experience. I'm sure they didn't have the noise issues and I'm sure the views were great up there. We were on the first floor and had to keep our curtains completely closed or else people could see everything that we were doing in bed! Still, this place was not cheap at all, and with the amount of money spent, I could spend a little extra next time and stay at a much nicer place. read more

It's ok. I can see the ocean from my room. (Paid extra for top floor view) Mostly looking at a parking lot though. About 1 mile walk to Aquarium and Cannery Row. Very cold and windy this weekend (January 2018). Room has mini fridge, microwave, heater, king bed, bad tv, etc. friendly staff! Barely a breakfast (cold cereal, pancake machine, toast). Parking is scarce and signs posted that say "park at your own risk" and "management is not responsible." Thin walls. Neighbors kept us up all night with their tv and partying. I would still recommend it, but shop around. Great area to visit! read more

Well this place was not only a disappointment but literally took a few years off of my life with a terrible scare. Once we laid down to sleep, we bolted our door, put out the "Do Not Disturb Sign" and shut the T.V. off and fell fast asleep. UNTIL I hear the dead bolt of our door being open at about 11:30 p.m. Door is opening and I jump out of bed screaming and hollering. Fortunately, the rooms are so small, our bed was within 2-3 feet of the front door. I slammed on the door and pushed out whoever was entering my room. Further investigation when we flipped the lights on revealed an young male pushing a roll away bed past our window. I can only assume he has a master key and clearly made a mistake on which room he was supposed to be going in. BUT Hotel security should be better then this. A knock on the door first and an announcement is probably good protocol, which there was none, not to mention the late hour of the night is not a good time for house keeping to be entering your room. There was no I'm so sorry, my mistake or anything. Nothing said. We complained in the morning to the front desk, the young man had nothing to say. I will let my manager know, was all that was said. Again, no "I'm sorry" or care. Just return your keys and be sure the bill was paid. Service was BAD, The young male manning the desk who had no experience being in hotel hospitality business, had no professionalism or care for his guests. The rooms were so-so, old, but clearly not worth the price they were charging. I did not feel safe here and would not stay again. A few bucks more I would go downtown Monterey, where those hotels are in the hospitality business and you get good service for your dollar and maybe an updated room. read more

Nice staff, breakfast, and location, but that's about it. Pros: - Close to ocean - Walking distance to cannery row - Nice staff - Breakfast - TV Cons: - Loud on first floor and can hear EVERYTHING. - They start drilling and maintenance at 8am - Tiny studio rooms - People sound like they're in you're room when they're outside your window. All in all, I was an experience, but probably wouldn't stay here again. Things that would make me come back: - Double paned windows - NO 8am DRILLING!!! - Not staying on the first floor. - Only place with vacancies. read more

I made a reservation on booking.com, and a few days before the reservation the weather forecast became very gruesome with a huge thunderstorm rolling in on the day I would need to drive about 2 hours to get there. I called the inn explaining that I would have to drive through the mountains (from mountain view, CA) to make it to my reservation. They first agreed with me that It wouldn't be a good idea to drive through the mountains in such road conditions. They were nice enough to cancel it, and let me reschedule. I'll update the review once I stay, but I have a wonderful impression of this place already. Thank you so much to the inn employees and owners for being so understanding! read more

Excellent place to stay, the staff is very friendly , the view from our room was beautiful overlooking the beach, the room was very clean and the bed was so comfortable I will defiantly be staying here again . read more

Overall the experience was ehh... my boyfriend and I wanted to spend the weekend in Monterey. The hotel has a great location and the beds were quite comfortably but the hotel was on the older side and the complimentary breakfast was nothing special. I felt like the room was organized in the most peculiar way with the bed about a foot from the door. I don't think I would stay here again if I had the choice. read more

Grungy motel. Everything in general is outdated and in disrepair. There is NO A/C ... they only have ceiling fans and portable fans. We were there on a hot day and the room was 85 degrees. When we approached the front desk about this they said it is normal for hotels in the area to not have Air Conditioning. We requested to check out and get some kind of credit or partial refund- they refused and were unhelpful. I checked the website and hotels.com and nothing calls this out in any of the description details!! Beyond the A/C issue, the walkways outside are a mess, filled with bags of dirty towels, and there is no emergency stairs to exit- only one small elevator. The stairs seem to be destroyed and it's not clear if they are actively working on constructing them. The rate for this hotel is too expensive for location alone. What a shame. read more

If I could give this a negative 5 stars I would. This is disgusting. As a nurse I understand what blood can contain. My good friend and her significant other went and rented a room. They first checked the bedding as is habit for them. They found blood on the sheets!! The room was shabby with paint peeling etc which can be overlooked, but BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS can not. When they asked for their money back (obviously they didnt stay) they were refused. No more than an hour later found the same room for rent at 499$! Ridiculous. Do yourself a favor and avoid this property. Blood is not ok. read more

My boyfriend and I stayed here during the holidays and had a wonderful experience. Joseph at the front desk was especially welcoming. Room was very clean and nicely decorated and the location of this inn is perfect. Would highly recommend. read more

View is excellent. Location is incredible. Room was ok for only two people. Service was good. Breakfast in the small Hotel check in area was ok. Biggest selling point is the location of this Inn. read more

I was super excited to stay at the motel that we booked for my boyfriends birthday weekend. First off the location was great that's the only reason I am leaving 2 stars. We pulled back our sheets and there was BLOOD On them, I've stayed at other hotels/motels and have never had this happen. So I call downstairs to tell the front desk all he said was "oh lord, I'll bring you up some other sheets" he comes a few minutes later and had brought us all pillow cases so my boyfriend went back down and told him and he gave him the sheets. Didn't say he was sorry etc. just said he will tell housekeeping tomorrow morning so disgusting will never stay there again. After reading more reviews I feel that we won't get anything done. The only plus about this motel is that it's right by the water read more

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

See all

Any good business knows the key to success and profit is through positive public relations. And as a PR strategist, I can safely tell you that the Lover's Point Inn has no sense of public relations whatsoever and would receive 0 stars if Yelp would allow it. Here's my experience: My husband (who is an active duty Marine, which shouldn't matter as the hotel should treat everyone to a positive customer experience) booked a room for this place through Expedia. We decided to take the trip to Monterey during his leave as a little getaway for ourselves, which is something we aren't able to do very often. Due to an error on either Expedia or the inn's part, our reservation was changed to the day before our arrival without our knowing. Upon our arrival, the inn gladly informed us of the situation and asked us to contact Expedia customer support. That's fine. After 45 minutes of talking to Expedia, Expedia calls the hotel and then tells us that there is nothing they can do. Why? The Inn insists on charging Expedia and refuses to be flexible on changing the reservation despite the fact that the front desk had told us there were many rooms available and at a cheaper price than what we originally paid for. Their reason being that they were unable to fill that room for their personal profit so in return they are taking our money to make up for the cost, despite the fact that the reservation error was in fact, the fault of one of the companies and not ours. So my husband and I left to find a room elsewhere. As a well-traveled person, I know that any other hotel would've apologized for their error and gave us a room for the night, especially since the room in question is not filled and is only $109 compared to $134 that we paid for. So for Lover's Point Inn, I leave this tip: learn some customer service. The way to make it, especially in your industry is through brand advocacy - rather than turning our mishap into a positive experience, thus turning us into advocates, you have now got yourself a negative review. You underestimate the power of word of mouth. To anyone looking for a place to stay in Monterey, you're better off spending your money somewhere else. read more

You might drive right by this place and decide "dive" Truth be told, I guess it kinda is a dive when you consider you are in Monterey and surrounded by multi-million dollar properties. However, I've stayed here twice and wasnt disappointed at all. Here's the run down: The first time was probably early to mid 90s with my ex. It was the only place that had vacancies that were reasonable...about 75 bucks back then. Making the 3 hour drive home was not an option. I remember leaving a brand new outfit in the closet. I called the next day and I believe the owner (?) mailed it back to me at his own expense. How nice was that? The second time was just a few years ago. The place hadnt changed a bit. It is very basic but old but I remember it was still under 100 bucks a night. Reasonable! The other benefits? There is a lovely restaurant next door for brunch on the water, a park across the street and a small almost private beach. It is close by to all the attractions--aquarium, cannery row and the very lovely 17 mile drive. read more

So I was looking for an affordable place to stay that was also close to the beach and within driving distance to cannery row and all the other touristy things to do. Lover's Point Inn is where I stayed. Now, I was skeptical at first. It looks a tad bit shady from the outside. My best friend described it's appearance as "something out of a scary movie." I stayed anyway. We had the best time. The room was cleaner than a lot of chain hotels that I have been to. There were hangers in the closet for me to hang things on and a vanity with a chair for me to do my makeup. This motel is LITERALLY across the street from Lover's Point. You can't stay anywhere closer (except maybe the place next door, but that's besides the point). The ocean is just across the street and as I fell asleep that night I was able to hear the waves crashing on the rocks. Clean? Yes. Affordable? Very. Good Location? The Best. read more

I give them 5 stars because beggars can't be choosers. They are cute and dated definitely not trendy and fancy the elevator is terrifying and the renovations are inconvenient but the view and general location is amazing and reasonable prices. 5 stars if you want a place to sleep around the beauty of Monterey. read more

I went all out, I booked the Jr Suite and got the King sized bed with the pull out sofa and everything. Well well worth it for New Years Eve with a little one. She loved having a queen size bed all to herself and her own TV, and even loved the view. For the price we paid it was all well worth it, especially going in knowing that it wasn't a palace nor a Motel 6. I must say the Jr Suite is the best bet if you are going to stay right on the beach. The breakfast was perfect for us as we were running out the door to catch all the other sights along the road. The staff was so pleasant and helpful, even gave great suggestions for dinner. The parking was easy to find and even more everything was exactly as expected. I can't wait to go back again. read more

This place is cheap. They got a good location where close to the beach and park. The room is small. The bed is close to the door do you can hear people outside talking all the time when they walk pas your room. The checkout time @11 the house keeping knocked on the door at 9:30 and again at10:40 even we hung the sign " do not disturb ". read more

For my 7th Anniversary, I had an idea of a hotel with romantic views. What I read on the website said the King Bed with a Jacuzzi jetted-tub would be worth the $188 for the night. When we got there, I was disappointed. Not only was the Jacuzzi jetted-tub located in the shower bathtub, but the the view from the apartment was only a partial ocean-view too. Wanting to make the most of the hotel, I filled up the tub with water excited to get the water jets working. When it was full, I found out it was not working and it was too late to contact the front desk. On the other hand, it was only because the tub wasn't working that I noticed the tub floating with hair (from the hypogastric region). No kidding. I was so grossed out after confirming it with my husband, I had to take a shower. I guess the cleaning people aren't doing such a good job with cleaning the rooms. The next morning, I will say that the continental breakfast wasn't too bad. It wasn't too crowded at 9 AM. We enjoyed eating our breakfast under the warm sun on a late December overlooking the beautiful ocean. But that was probably the best part of it. It was just too bad the water jets wasn't working. We did ask to get a discount on the room and got $40 off our room, which would of cost the same as a room with a queen bed. I was disappointed that the hotel didn't live up to the standards of their advertisements. read more

I do NOT recommend staying here. The pics online ARE NOT accurate. The front desk agent who checked us in was lovely but that was about it. The motel is seriously run down and dirty. Black mold in the bathroom (pics included) and when we had problems getting the hot water on in the shower (because it is mislabeled and the facet looks like it's about to come out from the wall) the night manager who tried to "help" us acted as if it was a huge inconvenience. She also yelled "knock knock" as she stomped down the hallway to let us know she was coming (there are no peep holes in the doors) and then asked repeatedly if we had clothes on even though she could see both of us. She was rude when she checked the water for us as well, yelling "it's scalding" like we were too dumb to figure it out. Will never be coming back. Terrible service and horrible cleanliness. Heaters and fans are provided for your heating and cooling needs, no in-room units or thermostats. read more

Standard hotel for the night. We had a king bed suite on the 2nd floor and it worked. The door couldn't open fully since the bed was jammed into the room right by the door, but hey, it was a big bed. However, I found one long hair ON the comforter that was not mine or my wife's and one ON one of the pillows. I don't know if this was just bad luck or they don't properly wash their linens but it was nasty regardless. The room came with a small tower fan, extra (clean) pillow, and a blanket. All of these were good due to the aforementioned pillow hair and the fact that I enjoy sleeping with fans on and my wife freezes because of that fact. The real problem came in the morning when we went to try to use the shower. First off I found two MORE hairs in the shower. One on the wall next to the towel shelf and the other ON the wall of the shower. Again, disgusting and it showed a lack of basic cleaning because neither of them were particularly hard to find if you looked at the walls they were on for more than 5 seconds. Moving on; I'll be honest my wife and I are both college educated and relatively smart I'd like to think, but we could not for the life of us figure out how to get the water from the faucet to the shower head. Maybe we've lived in a sheltered world where all showers have that small pull plunger on the faucet to perform this task & that's all we have ever known, but this shower did not have that. So, needless to say, we did not end up showering that morning. After packing up, we went and checked out and told the employee at the desk about the shower issues. This guy actually pulled out a faucet model from a drawer and asked if they had shown us how to work the shower faucet when we checked in. First off, no, or else I wouldn't be telling you this. Secondly, you had to install some new-fangled shower faucet into your rooms that you have to show each new guest how to use? That's a problem right there. Apparently, the faucet has the "plunger" feature I mentioned above built in to the nozzle and you have to pull down on the nozzle to get water to the shower head. Again, maybe this was our fault for not being able to figure it out, but I don't believe so. The best thing I can say about this place was the location. The beach is less than a two minute walk and the Aquarium is about a ten minute drive. However, that did not make up for the issues we had with cleanliness and showering. read more

The Good: great location [1 block from beach] The Lame: no air conditioning or fan for the super stuffy, smelly room. You can hear every noise around you in all directions. The place is a bit dumpy...borderline dive motel. Won't return. You get what you pay for... read more

We stayed at Lovers Point Inn during the Monterey Jazz Festival. To those who have commented negatively, I can only remind you that you get what you pay for and, as Will Shakespeare said: "Expectations are the root of all heartache." The Inn is a motel. Not a new motel, not the Hyatt Regency. It is a nice, clean, personable, incredibly-well-situated motel at an amazingly reasonable price. If you know that going in, you won't be disappointed. The best thing about the Inn is walking across the street, hanging out on the rocks or the little beach at Lovers Point Park, enjoying the waves, the birds, the otters. If you just want to sit in a resort-type hotel room and stare at your $300-a-night walls, this ain't the place for you. This is a functional, well-maintained, unfussy, inexpensive jumping-off point to explore Pacific Grove, Cannery Row, etc. Take the 10-minute walk along the water to the Aquarium. Get up before dawn, take your coffee out to the Point and watch the sunrise across the bay. It's really pleasant. Know that they only have two rooms with balconies overlooking the point, but they're also above the road, so don't be bummed if you don't get one of those. Put your Fit-Bit on, grab your basic breakfast and sit outside under the heat-lamps down by the lobby, then get going with your day. So, yes: We enjoyed our stay, but I want to mention staff-members Juliana, Micki and Lisa (aka: "Liza") by name, as they are REAL people, not "Ramada-bots" - very friendly, accommodating and, at times, a total hoot. Five stars for value. We definitely plan on coming back to Lovers Point Inn! read more

Was looking for a budget place near Monerey/Carmel close to the beach. All accomodations in Carmel were way too expensive. After a hunt we finally found this hotel. At $59 per night was just perfect for our budget. Though we were little sceptical initially coz of the low rates but on reaching we were taken by surprise at the location. Just across the hotel was the most picture perfect beach scenery i have ever seen! Though the view was not visible from our room we didn't mind crossing the road to soak in the beauty of the sea. The beach was clean and the view of the sunset and early morning was breathtaking. Even in the nights we used to sneak off into the park and sit there till late. Our room was in the 1st floor near the parking lot but we didn't face any disturbance from the cars.The room was neat with a clean bed and bathoom. We were pretty surprised and happy to get free breakfast in the mornings which was decent too. The receptionist was very helpful and friendly. All touristy places of monterey like Cannery row and Fisherman's Wharf was very close from here.What else could we expect at the price we paid for the room!?! Our definite option will be this hotel any time we plan to visit monterey and carmel again! read more

We stayed at the Lover's Point this past weekend during the Pebble Beach Food & Wine Festival. I won't go into the Epic-ness that is the festival, but it was... er.. epic. Anyway, our room at the Inn was fantastic; clean, coastal stylish, and extremely inviting. The bed was so soft we almost slept in and missed a morning tasting! The staff was super nice and accomodating, every detail of our room was obviously thoughtfully designed and the views were spectacular. We had such a wonderful time that My girl and I have resolved to visit the area regularly with the Lover's Point Inn as our little 'home' in paradise. Cheers read more

If your a gourmet queen or hotel snob, my review won't agree with you. We were looking for a cheap room that had bare bone basics. We needed cheap and convenient. We were very happy with our room. It's a tiny room, has a rather hard mattress, and is far from updated. So why 4 stars? VERY friendly service and the location competes with $500 rooms in the area. You can hear the waves crashing across the street. It's walking distance to almost everything. It sits across from beautiful Lover's Point Park and some great tide pools. Everything worked as far as the coffee pot, microwave, and fridge. The water gets super hot and pretty much everything you need is in the room. I booked through Hotels.com for $99 per night and was about 200 yards +/- from the water. You can't beat that. If your looking for affordability with excellent location then this is the place. read more

Lovers Point Inn - I was standing at by the water and this is how close the hotel was. - Hotels Near Me - Pacific Grove, California

DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! Place blows! Pictures make it look decent-it's cramped, old, and nothing works! The walls are paper thin, we could here our neighbor singing Mariah Carey in the shower at 6:30, sounded like a bad karaoke jam at the base of a waterfall!!! The staff stated there was always parking, not true!!! Got back from dinner at 9:30,no parking! Creepy garage downstairs. The heater was either hell-hot or non existent! The tub leaked sporadically all night, not worth the money! read more

Lovers Point Inn - "Ocean view" - Hotels Near Me - Pacific Grove, California

First of all, you should know that this is not the Hyatt. The rooms are small and the building is old. With that being said, these are great rooms for the money. The rooms are CLEAN and our stay was quiet. We were on the 1st floor in room 103, and had an Ocean View. When we arrived, the girl at the front desk was very polite and friendly. Right away she informed us that the cable was out, and they were working on it. We told her that were in town working out the details of our wedding in August, so it wasn't an issue for us. None the less, she offered to give us the room at half price and followed through with her promise by comping the second night of our 2 night stay! We had a great time for a great price, and are recommending this hotel to our wedding guests. read more

So my wife and I stayed here for a little birthday weekend getaway. Priceline had screwed me over with their "name your price" little deal thing. So i couldnt cancel or reschedule. The hotel worked with me as much as they could. They even called priceline for me. So they gave me a free upgrade with all the trouble priceline had given me. They didnt even have to, it wasnt even their fault. So instead of having a first floor basic room they upgraded us to a 3rd floor ocean view king size room. Their rooms aren't the nicest and its not the best looking hotel, but the customer service is indeed a 5 out of 5. They really try to make sure that they accommodate you the best they can. They almost gave us one of the houses they have thats over $900 a night, but they found something else. But they fact that they were going to is awesome. I highly recommend this place. The price is fair and the ocean is across the street. Cant get any better than that read more

If you are under 5ft tall and don't mind a stadium light shining into the room, you might like Room 202. Situated facing the stairwell, you can not open your drapes because anyone going up or down the stairs can look in. Be sure you are fully clothed!!! When we signed in we immediately asked for a different room since we were spending 3 nights. We were told that if we booked through a 3rd party (Expedia, Hotels.com, etc.) the answer was 'NO'. The woman at the desk said she looked but they were "going to be" all booked up and the answer was "NO". She told us we had an updated room anyway and we'd be happy there. NO. The bathroom floor was cracked. If you got out of the tub you might just step into the toilet. It is that small. And make sure noone opens the bathroom door while you are sitting or you will wind up with the doorknob on your temple. The drain in the tub worked poorly and i stood in shin deep water while showering. The vanity was the perfect height if you were 5 feet tall or less. My husband is 6'1 and I am 5'8". Not so great. The bed was basically comfortable but one side was nearly pushed up against the wall. No night table on that side and if that person wanted to get in or out of bed they had to climb down the bed. But the worst was the stadium bright light facing the window. Even with the short drapes pulled tightly closed, enough light came through the top, sides and bottom to make the room bright enough to read in. If you do not plan on wearing night blinders do not plan on sleeping until 4am when they turn the light off. It was an awful room in a hotel that needs updating and quite frankly if a hotel is not happy doing business with 3rd parties like Hotels.com, Expedia etc. they should not be registered with them. Thank goodness it was Pacific Grove/Monterey. It is a beautiful area but this place came very close to making us the grouchiest, most tired visitors there :( read more

This place is terrible. The feeling we had right when we walked into the place. The guy at the registration was okay in dealing. Our room didn't had a display number outside the room. It took is a while to figure out our room. The room was not even comparable to what they show in the pictures when booking. I booked the room via Booking.com Continental breakfast is terrible, in the name of breakfast they just serve you some hard bread butter, pancakes and eggs with orange juice. Breakfast is served in the registration area only in the tiny corner. Not comfortable at all. Then comes the main problem we faced during our stay. Me and my wife had the breakfast and took a walk at the lovers point beach and took the elevator back to our room on third floor. Elevator kind of looked outdated right from day one. It made weird sound when stopping on the basement where the parking is. So when the elevator stopped at our floor, the power just went out and the elevator stopped working and the door didn't open. When the power came back we tried to open the door and it didn't work. Then we pressed the button to go downstairs. We tried to ring the emergency bell in the lift. Nobody came. Then all of a sudden the elevator started going down and went all the way down to the basement parking. We tried to knock on the door and called someone to help. Then we tried ringing the emergency bell in the elevator. We then called 911 from the phone in the elevator, even the phone was not working. We managed to call 911 from my phone and then they sent fire truck to get us out. Then after 5 minutes the maintenance guy opened the door and he just said lift is not working. I mean I already know that man!!! He said nothing else. So we then went to the registration and the experience we had with the old lady at the counter was terrible. Instead of having a courtesy of asking if we were alright or not, she said nothing at all. And when we complained about the situation she just ignored what we said and tried to blame everything on us. And then she said we got you out. Like seriously, that attitude and arrogance. You could be more polite at least. Beware of this place. Only good thing about it is the location. Still if you prefer staying there, good luck!! read more

The location of this hotel is desirable. The ocean is visible and within walking distance. There is a beach just below the park across the street. Cannery Row is about 1 mile away and bike rentals are available across the street. If the price of a hotel in Monterey is too pricey when you plan on visiting, this hotel in Pacific Grove is a nice option. This hotel is within walking distance to a movie theater as well as a delicious French restaurant called Le Normandie. The service was friendly. My only complaint is that the lady behind the desk kept referring to my boyfriend and I as kids (we are in our mid-20s). The room was A-OK. We were in room 206, which had a king bed in it as well as a flat-screen tv, plastic wicker bistro table/coffee table/bench. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The bathroom was outdated, but manageable. The sink is just outside the bathroom and is accompanied by a vanity area. Water bottles are available for purchase for $2. The room also had a large mini fridge and microwave in it. The noise levels were manageable, but I could occasionally hear a child running across the second floor, just outside of the rooms. This hotel offers free parking and a complimentary continental breakfast (toast, bagels, cereal, fruit, boiled eggs, coffee/tea/juice). I recommend it for the thrifty/active traveler and to families (just make sure your kids don't run around the second and third floors at 6am or you will have angry neighbors). read more

Very very disappointed! Pics on website falsify actual facility. No view of water. Very very small bathroom! Pics show 2 antique beds hardwood floor and kitchenette. NOT! Microwave on top of mini fridge in a corner. I felt like I was in a trailer. Breakfast was a joke! Boiled eggs, raisin bread, juice, cold cereal. Paid $159 very very disappointed! read more

Lovers Point Inn - View from room. - Hotels Near Me - Pacific Grove, California

Great location. Friendly service and top-notch pillows for a hotel. Rooms are nice and clean and price and location can't be beat.

Not even worth one star. If I have learned anything from this, it's to start reading reviews! The photos on hotels.com does not compare to the outdated uneven room you walk into! The countertops are a hideous pale pink mixed with cream and gold from the 70s or 80s! Bed was lumpy and my pillow had two eyebrow hairs on it! No ac because it's ocean front, yet the room was musty and warm, the fan they provided was dusty and lopsided, the floor was uneven. My "ocean view" was half a staircase. I was so upset about this outdated room (originally booked for three nights for our honeymoon) and wanted to cancel right when I walked in. We Decided to make the best of it and stay (since we would have to pay one nights rate to cancel) we went about our day and returned back to the room, at 1050pm we went to grab a snack, our entire food supply we brought with us was covered in ants! (Let me remind you, we're on the 3rd floor so the ants must be inside the walls at this point..) We went down to the office and they agreed to move us rooms, lower our rate, and gave us the option to cancel the remaining stay by check out time the next day. We were moved three doors down, (at 11pm) when we walked into the second room the entire carpet was still wet (it had been washed when we were checking in at 3pm) we put towels on the floor around the bed and kept our shoes on and went to bed. Upon check out the next morning (there was no way I was going to stay the remaining two nights and have my honeymoon ruined by their lack of customer service, poor business ethics, and outdated rooms) they tried to charge me the full nights rate at $127 I had to tell the lady at the desk that the overnight lady I spoke to said she was bringing my rate to $89 after about a full 8mins of her clicking and typing I was finally given a receipt showing the two credits to my credit card, that took five days to process.. the close location to Lovers point park does not make up for the expense and poor condition of the rooms. Please take my review into concideration and look around elsewhere, we found another stay less than a mile away that was cheaper and enjoyed the remaining of our trip there! read more

When we first called we got one price, when we got there it was another and still another when we offered a lower rate. I'm saying I wouldn't give them their asking price. The water takes about a half an hour to go down after a shower and forget about a bath. I notified them but they didn't seem to care. There is no AC and after being locked up for a day it smells really musty. There is breakfast and the location is great. read more

We have stayed here since 2011 and we will never stay again. It's gone down hill every time we come. Rooms are horribly outdated... beds are squeaky, the walls need fresh paint (you can see where they've fixed/removed things and it looks horrible) and the bathroom floor feels like it's going to fall through. Walls are super thin, or so it seems.. not kid friendly with the heaters in rooms, and our door locks were non existent... looked as if someone had kicked the door in at one point. Check in was at 4, we got there and a housekeeper was JUST finishing our room, and the hotel didn't seem busy at all. Continental breakfast was horrible, and they have ants. Only good thing is the location and parking. read more

By far one of the worst hotels I've ever been to! $100 for paper thin walls and windows, rock hard bed... with everybody up at 5- 6 a.m. Plus the lady that quoted us didn't book the hotel room like she said so we had to pay an extra 28 bucks... suppose too be 72. 1230am check in and out by 10 little to no sleep 2 stars because at least it was clean. read more

It was a good stay! The food was excellent and the staff superb! There was a staff member Jonathan who was particularly helpful, accommodating and shared his knowledge about Monterey with us. He assisted the front desk and also carried our luggage to our room. Highly recommended & Will definitely come back to this place!!! read more

What I liked about this hotel was that our room was clean, the staff was friendly, and it was within walking distance to the beach and restaurants. The bed was comfy too. However, don't let their website fool you because they make it look a lot nicer than it really is. Our view was fine, but I was hoping for a patio that I could sit and drink coffee from while still having a view of the ocean. Instead, the patio was only something you could stand on, surrounded by a tall wall. There was a small table with one chair in the corner of the patio, but it wasn't something I would enjoy with the advertised "patio view of the ocean". Meh... Also, if you can, take the stairs. Something about that elevator doesn't feel right. Every time we used it, there was a horrible sound as if the cables were being stretched and I just don't like the idea of falling 4 stories to get to the garage. My boyfriend read the maintenance form and it listed the last check in 2013!! Yikes. Oh! And also try to park above ground because it can be tricky getting in and out of those spots in the garage. There's like a weird turnaround area because there is only one entrance/exit area. We were lucky to never run into the situation where someone is trying to leave while we are entering or vise versa, because someone would have to very awkwardly back out of the situation. read more
