Super clean rooms and comfortable beds! The decor is simple yet very inviting. Loved the large picture of dolphins jumping out of the sea! This is an incredible value to stay right on the edge of Monterrey and Carmel. read more

For the price, the pacific inn was a fantastic location to visit Monterey. The room was clean, AC worked well, lots of Cable Television channels, and newly painted walls. There was also ample parking and was within 5 miles to the beach and lots of great restaurants. It was worth it to get a much cheaper hotel room away from the water! I would not mind staying here again on my next Monterey visit. The staff is friendly and most importantly, DOGS ARE ALLOWED TO STAY for an extra $30 per night! read more

We booked for holiday weekend and they were accommodating to our pet (cat) allergies and baby. Our suite was clean and quiet. The establishment was conveniently close to supermarket, gas station, and restaurants. The aquarium and other tourist attractions were about 10-15 min drive. read more

Front Desk staff were nice and accommodating. Unassuming place that is reasonably priced. Must have been recently remodeled, which I found very tastefully designed and workmanship well done. Very clean, comfortable beds, and great pillows, which I mention because so often they are not good and seem like an afterthought. I do wish the lights weren't so bright and had more dimming options. Some traffic noise but I always come prepared with earplugs. Toilet seat didn't seem to fit well. Not as close to downtown Monterey (not walking distance), but fairly short drive. read more

Paid $236 on a Friday for a glorified Motel 6 with paper thin walls - just glad people were R rated and not fighting/cursing. Wish I stayed at Motel 6, paid much more for same quality decor but with a fridge and toiletries. Includes parking lot because not much available by your room which with kids/bags might as well stay at Motel 6 for same experience but much cheaper. read more

Let's begin with saying that Monterrey is one of my most favorite cities in California. We made a stop here while traveling up to Eureka, Ca. The front Dess were extremely helpful and accommodating to our needs. Our room had not come with a Keurig for coffee, but the staff located one for us. The rooms are newly renovated and very clean. We will definitely be staying here again! read more

My girlfriend and went on a road trip on the coast from Long Beach. Decided to call it a night at The Pacific Inn. Extremely glad we did. Excellent room price, food location, and formerly staff. The bathroom was also incredible for the size of the room. We will be back! read more

Booked here for two nights. Front desk personnel were both very nice and welcoming. Rooms was 103 right next to the office, very clean, modern, remodeled new, very nice, simple and convenient. Good price. Plenty of parking on site. Parking could be a tad bit wider but overall is good. Would definitely come back here! read more

Nothing cozy about this place. Even if you look at it from the standpoint of a clean bed/ place to sleep, people are checking in at all hours of the night and are stomping around above you if you are on the ground floor. Telephones in the room disconnected. The air only stays on for a few minutes at a time. Barely got any sleep and the location was terrible. Wish I had paid a little more for a nicer spot. Lesson learned! read more

While the Inn isn't much to look at all from the street, the hotel room was very clean and relatively updated. The bed was comfortable and we expected a bit of road noise given the proximity to a busy street. We were fortunate to have a second floor room so we didn't have to worry about foot traffic above us. After site seeing in Monterey for the day, our group turned in early. We were woken abruptly at around 11:15 pm to the sound of whining/groaning/wailing pipes (very loud) or what we think were the pipes. The noise was definitely coming from the walls. The noise went on intermittently for two and a half hours keeping us awake til it finally ceased. The front desk closes at 10:30pm so there was nobody to alert or any resolution to our issue. In the morning I alerted the Inn staff as soon as the office opened (8:30am). The staff was friendly and offered an apology but that's about it. It was an expensive way to spend a night not sleeping. Under the circumstances, I would not stay here again. read more

TERRIBLE and HORRIBLE.....I wish I can give a negative -5 stars. everything was quite ok until check out. I was so grateful for my deposit back because she said the room looked good when checked. we asked for another night and they said locals can only stay one night. As I was checking out, I was told because I had a tiny bit of makeup on the pillow case i was no longer welcome here at this hotel because I'm "damaging" the hotel. So I got banned...because of mascara on a pillow case...I even went as far as to clean the room extra to make it easier...but now I'm banned, because of a tiny bit of makeup on a pillow case....DO NOT STAY HERE. Kimberly will 100% rip you off and maybe even banned you. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. read more

Do not stay here!!!!! I found roaches in the bathroom. The front desk agent was extremely rude, and unwilling to work with me. He didn't even apologize for roaches Being in the room. Unbelievable. Do not stay h read more

The Pacific Inn - Roach in the bathroom! So gross!!! - Hotels Near Me - Monterey, California

Stayed for the weekend and loved it. The host was very welcoming and the room was very nice, most likely recently renovated. It is also centrally located to all of the Monterey attractions which was nice. The room definitely exceeded expectations. For those complaining, next time spend some money on a $300/night hotel so your special needs can be met. read more

Very nice motel inn. Comfortable & great little dog park for my doggie. However wouldn't recommend room at bottom of stairs. People coming down from second floor would stop at bottom of stairs right in front of our room & talk loudly for a while. It was after 11 pm & we needed our sleep. read more

Found this place through booking.com. Got a good deal on it we thought. Wanted a place close to the ward, aquarium etc. it's def not walking distance though. We knocked it off one star because the exterior. Doesn't look too appealing. The parking isn't too big as well but we found a spot. Checked in and noticed that what looked to be an old swimming pool area not turned into a dog area where you can bring your dog to go to the bathroom. Cool. But we didn't bring our dog. Free wifi and continental breakfast. No smoking rooms. Our room had a king size bed, fridge/freezer combo, keurig and a microwave. The room looked updated. You wouldn't have thought the room would look like this inside from the outside. Nice interior! Very spacious and the bathroom was updated as well. Would stay here again if looking for a good deal. read more

Best value for money. From outside the motel looks old, but the interior of the room will surprise you! The rooms on lower floor have laminate flooring and the ones above have carpets. The furniture is newly upgraded and so is the appliances, lights, fixtures. The bathroom is clean, sheets were clean, check in was smooth. Breakfast has limited options, but I think this motel is really the best value you can get out of a motel in Monterey. Its very conveniently located close to the monterey pier, carmel-by-the-sea and monterey aquarium. Will surely come back when I visit Monterey next time. read more

This place was A-okay. Friend and I needed a double queen room for a weekend. First place I booked didn't have A/C in their rooms (read the booking.com fine print, it's there for a reason) and I forfeited the pool at that place for the air conditioner here. Looks like rooms have been recently updated - white linens on the beds, no ratty dated comforters so often found at motel stops, and updated fixtures in the bath. Quality laminate flooring in downstairs rooms only. All rooms come equipped with iron/board, fridge/freezer and flat screen TV mounted on the wall. Some minor complaints with the state of the blinds (see pic), the fact that some lamps were missing their lightbulb, and breakfast: lasting only 2 hours 7:30-9:30 and their policy is to refill everything at the start of breakfast and when it's gone, it's gone. Buy your Monterey Bay Aquarium tickets at the front desk and you'll get 2 days for the price of one. Go to breakfast at Caffe Trieste, it'll be a more satisfying experience than the crap served at the hotel. It's an okay spot to spend a weekend, if all you're gonna do is sleep. read more

Good hotel for the price. They let us check in early and the room was clean. There was a funny odor in the restroom but other than that Everything else was fine .I would stay here again. read more

Watch out for room 201. It's infested with bed bugs. My boyfriend and I stayed here over the weekend and woke up in the middle of the night, scratching like crazy and covered in bites. The man at the front desk was totally belligerent, not seeming to care at all about the infestation. We basically had to beg him for a refund, which he did not think was warranted. Two days later, my hands and feet are still swollen from all of the bites. Do yourself a favor and avoid this disgusting place. read more

The Pacific Inn - Here's a look at the bed bug bites on my hand, compliments of the Pacific Inn. - Hotels Near Me - Monterey, California

We booked a reservation on booking.com, drove two hours to get here, and then found out that it does not have any bed, fold-out, or cot for our child. The reservation states that it accommodates a child. This was hugely inconvenient as we had a grumpy and tired child in the car. We were refunded our money, but no other consideration was offered. I hope no one else has this happen to them. read more

Stayed here for 2 nights for a little getaway with my boyfriend and our dog. For starters, the place was extremely clean. Was watching the maid staff clean every door and wall from top to bottom so we felt super safe here. There was a small turf area for dogs, which was also kept very clean as well. Check in/ check out was super simple and quick, there was a key drop off for check out which made it all a breeze. Wifi was decent, lots of tv channels, nice sized rooms, and plenty of take out options around! Only about a 10 minute drive from Monterey's tourist attractions such as Fisherman's Wharf and Cannery Row. Only negatives about the place was parking was a bit tight, and the walls were a little thin but both were not dealbreakers at all. I will definitely be coming back to Pacific Inn if I come back to Monterey any time soon! read more

Parking is free but somewhat limited, and the parking lot is quite uneven in certain places. Check-in was straightforward. Staff was wearing proper PPE. Our room was clean. The bed was comfortable and clean. I liked that the bathrooms had dispensers for the shampoo, conditioner, etc. already situated in the shower. The wifi is ok, but youtube videos are only still able to load in 240 to 360p. The desk is a bit small, but the room itself is large. read more

I found this place via a dog friendly referral site. It WAS a Best Western. The little info I found regarding the new business looked like it was a ok place. I wasn't expecting 5 stars, but where this place lacked for the over $100 dollars a night was unacceptable! The service from check in was awful We confirmed on the phone 2 times a king bed and a dog friendly room. Both times confirmed. Was told they don't have email to send conformation. Really? 1990 called. When we checked in they wanted to give us a queen bed. When we protested we were told that he could help us find another place to stay. We insisted on the king promised and was eventually given a king room. Not a great room, but not a problem. Was told at check in WiFi sucks. It did!! The towels were GROSS! kind of a gray color and fraying. All the towels not just the ones we were given the first day. I used the beach towels I brought because theirs made me feel dirty. I did ask for others and the maids brought some hot and damp from the dryer that looked worse. Other than that the stay was fine. Good location we were able to walk to lots of places, it was quite. With all the other choices in the area we wont stay here again. Too bad because we visit her eat least two times a year for a week at a time. read more

The Pacific Inn - these are the towels we were given. All the towels look like this. - Hotels Near Me - Monterey, California

For an economy dog friendly motel, this place is quite decent. Registration was easy on the phone initially and in person the clerk at the desk was nice. Our room was clean, there were wooden shutters to block out the light, towels were alright, and the king size bed was comfortable. Parking was readily available right near our room, which was a huge plus. A major bonus was the amount of electrical outlets for our plug ins, thank you! Pet fee was a flat $30.00 a nite plus tax. The continental breakfast consisted of hard boiled eggs, bread, little pastries, cereal, milk, oj, apple juice, make your own waffles and coffee. Would have been nice to have some fruit, such as apples, oranges or bananas, too. Another suggestion is to please add a clock in the room. read more

Really poor condition. It was fully Renovated in 1998 needs a major overhaul. Beds are comfortable and linens are clean. Staff are friendly at the front desk however they. He left us into a room knowing the fire place didn't work. We changed rooms with some challenges. The next room had a huge tear in the sofa. Don't be late for the continental breakfast they start tearing down early and don't care if there are people still enjoying the breakfast or attempting to. Rooms are grotty and need a deep clean. All of the furniture is dirty scratched ir broken. Good location. Stay somewhere else of you can. read more

I loved this hotel, it may not have a view of the beach but it's only a 10-15 minute drive away from tourist attractions and the beach. It's a great location if you're interested in living like a local during your stay. Close by to delicious food (sushi by the bay, Grandma's kitchen, etc). My only con was that the cleaning staff knocks on the door right at 9am!! You'd think it'd be a little later considering you're likely there on a vacation. We told them when we checked in that we didn't want room service (I tend to be uncomfortable with people cleaning up around my things) because we were only there for two nights, but they went in and cleaned anyway while we were out exploring. Not necessarily a problem, but was somewhat bothersome considering we said no to it. However the hotel staff was friendly, and this was by far one of the cleanest hotels I've ever stayed in, so it's hard to complain. Everything was up to date as well, and the room had cable, microwave, decent sized mini fridge and a keurig machine. The AC worked perfectly. We would definitely stay here again given the chance. read more

Affordable and clean. My only issue is the parking. Very limited and super tight squeeze. read more

The Pacific Inn - This room comes with mini fridge, microwave and a Keurig --- hidden behind snacks. - Hotels Near Me - Monterey, California

We booked a 2 queen bed room for 2 nights at the last minute. Paid around $160 for the entire stay. Which wasn't bad considering its proximity to the tourist spots in Carmel and Monterey. Its about 10-15 minutes. Its on the main road, 7-11 in front, a restaurant right in the parking lot. On the outside, it doesn't look much. But the room itself was recently updated. Clean. Fairly comfortable bed. Parking would be tricky if it were peak season, Its very limited. No breakfast. They have coffee in the lobby. No pool. Its a no frills inn/motel/hotel. We had a hard time finding it because their signage is barely noticeable from the street. The room itself had a microwave and a fridge. Their a/c unit was the loudest thing I've heard in my life. This inn used to be a Best Western, they didn't bother updating the signs in the room, I'm guessing putting in a new a/c wasn't on their list. It would have been a great stay, if it were not for the party people on the 2nd floor during the first night. Drinking and causing a ruckus at 12 midnight. Then on the 2nd night, there was a couple fighting on the 2nd floor. I guess the floors and walls are paper thin. Apart from these night time disturbances, the hotel pretty much is a good bet if you're just looking for a place to crash after taking in the sights. read more

The interior is clean and updated. The exterior isn't anything special but very conveniently located to all the main tourist attractions. Two stars knocked off for false advertising that they have wifi (doesn't work). They have the crappiest connection EVER!! I wasn't able to connect, once....so annoying. Get high speed internet for Pete's sake! Also, our AC/Heater was broken. Next time I will just get an Airbnb. read more

The Pacific Inn - Cozy and upgraded. Clean inside - Hotels Near Me - Monterey, California

Really I would go 2.5 stars. But we got a great deal on hotwire considering the area prices. It is an older hotel previously the Ramona Inn Best Western. It was quaint, small, no significant issues with the room. We just wanted a place to stay to go to the attactions and had no plans to stay in the room. Clean room, helpful (but odd) staff, small contenental breakfast. about a mile to noisy downtown, cannery row, fishermans wharf. The tv was a tube tv, but we were glad they focused on the room not accessories. Our room did have a cut lamp cord, loose bath knob and loose toilet, but once pointed out it was corrected. Small parking lot, close to retail stores, between attactions and highway- so quiet. No pool, as it is a dog walk area now. It was good, not great and we got a great rate. Monterey is expensive for hotels. Free wifi read more

I have been going there for years. After my last stay they called me at 6 PM the next day saying I won't be able to stay there again due to late check outs ( which I'm always out by 11 AM ) and also something about it takes two housemaids to clean the room after all my stays. I thought that was incredibly rude especially considering the fact I have given them a lot of business. The manager is just out right mean. Not welcoming what so ever. You should be good to those that bring you consistent business not treat them like a bother. Not ok at all. Very disappointing. read more

PROS Good location. Friendly staff. Rooms were nice. CONS beds are okay (husband slept Terribly) We could hear the kid running around in the room above us. No breakfast. If you want a decent, no frills place to stay, this is it. read more

A hotel with no frills, just a place to rest your head. This motel is on the main strip in Monterey. The staff were nice and pleasant. The accommodations are standard. Dogs are $30 a pooch/night. A bit pricey. Should be a flat rate. The rooms were a tad noisy due to the traffic just outside. They provide the standard continental breakfast near the office and offer a doggy area that is great for saga to stretch their legs. They don't have assigned parking and therefore you are on your own if you roll on late into the evening. We were told if you can't find parking to go ahead and park at the restaurant adjacent to the motel (they also own it). I find this easily remedied with assigned parking. The amenities were a bit sketchy. As you turn on the shower/bath you are presented with rust colored water (rusty pipes?) and a shower head that does not give you a range of settings which is standard for any hotel. All in all an OK place. Not bad but no where near great. Just a place to rest your head. read more

We did last minute stay at this place. Nice, complement breakfast ok. Our room was down below, 1st floor. Above us was 4 drunkin a$$ guys freaking yelling screaming, being so loud. It was around 2am, didn't stop until 330am. Never reserve any rooms on a lower floor. Pros: comfy bed, close to the place where our event was. Cons: sink water pressure sux!, sticky floor. read more

Their renovation resulted in some really nice rooms, which was definitely a plus. Everything is quite clean, especially the bathroom, and the beds were quite comfortable. However, I do have some complaints as well. The main complaint is the lack of breakfast. This wouldn't be a problem if they hadn't advertised it in two different places (website and guidebook left inside the hotel rooms). My friend and I headed downstairs for the breakfast and the guy at the desk turned us away, saying that it wasn't there. I could understand if it were posted on third party sites or in old advertisements, but it was in literature that the hotel provided. I understand that it might be a pain to reprint the guidebook in the rooms, but at least make the change on the website. I may as well mention that the WiFi connection is basically useless as well. Overall, it's a good place, and at $80 per night, this is definitely one of the cheapest places in town, especially considering that it was recently renovated. read more

Stayed at the Inn on a weeknight in February. Check in was easy. Got to the first room on the second floor and my hubby steps in a huge water spot between the two queen beds. Called management as we don't know what type of liquid it is and his socks are now soaking wet. They came to the room and changed up to the room next door. The next room was fine, but throughout the evening there were extremely loud people outside and smokers EVERYWHERE. You would think they would have a designated place for smoking. I am 8 months pregnant and have a 7 year old with me, so I was not happy. Called the front desk to ask them for air freshener. They were kind enough to bring it for us, but the smoke smell persisted well into bed time. The air conditioner doesn't really offer a fan mode - just on and off according to the temperature. I was hoping to use that to drown out the noise from outside. The microwave didn't work at all. There are loud pipes noises during the night which we couldn't really understand. In the early morning, I was woken up at 5:30am by loud trucks right outside the window. No sleep at all. The beds are comfy and the room is clean - but it doesn't help when you can't sleep. Would I stay here again? No. read more

This is the second time we've stayed at Pacific Inn. It's very clean and the front office staff are pleasant. They have Keurig coffee in the room, which was delicious - much better than typical hotel room coffee. The beds were very comfortable and there were lots of pillows and extra blankets. Heater is really loud, but we didn't need to use it much and the walls are thin, so if you're a very light sleeper, this might be a problem (we could clearly hear the water running down the pipes in the walls). This time, we had an issue with rude neighbors - we had what seemed like about 10,000 children running (and I do mean RUNNING and JUMPING) around upstairs. We left for dinner at 6:30 and were in bed by 9:30 and it was still going on. I finally called the front desk and they immediately took care of the problem and the running stopped - can't really blame the hotel for rude people and they hotel staff were very responsive. We come to this area for my son's mountain bike races at Fort Ord and I'm sure we will be back. read more

Good value, clean room 'Ello chaps Found Pacific Inn Hotel in a whim when rolling into Monterey. We were pleasantly surprised of the accommodations. Appears to be a family run place who live on site, so security is tight. Lots of cameras keeping tabs on the place. The room was clean, comfortable, well stocked with towels, etc. Price was good and the biggest PERK: Dog Friendly They even have a small "pet area" outside. OVERALL: I give Pacific Inn Hotel Four CHEERS out of Five. Only reason why they don't get five is because I rarely give out five Cheers and at the end of the day, as nice as this hotel is, it's still not a Ritz Carlton. read more

Great rooms and great service. Looking forward to booking another stay soon. The location is prime and is close to anywhere you could want to go in Monterey. read more

We were looking for a cheaper but nice room to stay in and I happened to come across this room on Booking.com. I was nervous because its down the street from a different hotel we tried to stay at that was disgusting and (we left early--Casa Verde Motel) but this place more then exceeded out expectations. Not only was it super clean, the bed was so comfortable and the room was very spacious. Had updated furniture and even though we brought our own soap/face wash. I love that they had everything there in the shower. Also the hand soap and lotion included next to the sink. Customer service was very in and out, but we didn't mind and the two people we talked too were nice. We will definitely be staying here again, but next time with our dog! (They replaced the pool with a section of lawn and its gated for the dogs). LOVE that! read more
