Nice accommodations, close to the...

Pros: Great location, close to park and beach, and clean, nice rooms, nice bathroom.

Cons: There was no breakfast offered for the price point. The outdoor pool was closed.

Relaxing and comfortable. We will...

Pros: Location was walking distance to the beach trail and Fishermans Wharf. Cozy room and comfortable bed. Lovely courtyard with gas fireplace and fountain and comfortable furniture.

Cons: Early morning talking in the courtyard woke us up. Hair dryer did not work. Discolored grout on bathroom floor.

Very good

Pros: Easy to park. Plenty of room outside.

Cons: Low light. In current day a good bright light is cheap and easy. Also the bathroom/toilet fan was really noisy.

Customer Service Notes

Pros: I like the room, it was very spacious and clean. The outside was cute and maintained.

Cons: The first thing I didn't like is that someone was given our same room from the front desk and given key access to our room the second night we were staying there. A woman walked in, and luckily, my husband met her at the door. The good and bad in that is luckily we were there, so nothing got stolen. The bad thing is, they could have walked into an intimate moment, and that's not professional of the staff to give out our room; that should have been logged as booked! The second thing I did not like is that they only gave you 1 1/2 toilet paper rolls in the bathroom, and it was super thin toilet paper. The third thing I didn't like was that the cafe was no longer open there and that would have been nice to know beforehand. The last thing I didn't like is that my husband went to the front desk and ask the lady if she had any change to break some bills because the soda machine wasn't taking our dollars and she said " no, there should be water in your room." My husband informed her we didn't have any, and he'd buy one if it's available, and the woman looked irritated and gave him two water bottles. Just a little hospitality note, be kind to your guests and smile.

Disappointing

Decent updates to an older...

Pros: Great location.

Cons: Pool and hot tub being resurfaced.

Good

Pleasant

Fantastic! Would book again

Pros: Beautiful room, spotlessly clean and lovely touches. Loved the firepit!

Cons: The fridge would occasionally have burst of noisy activity overnight but nothing that would keep us up.

Polite check in

Pros: All good

Cons: Location

Ok but not great

Pros: Clean property, ok location

Cons: Wish they would’ve told us the pool and spa were closed for renovations. Didn’t mention anything when I booked and my kids were hugely disappointed. Had I had known, I would have booked elsewhere. We only booked for the pool and spa. Aside, the beds were not comfortable.

Down for the count.

Pros: The property is very nice. We've stayed here before. It's location\distance from the old wharf, the aquarium and cannery row was acceptable. Due to circumstances beyond our control decisions for what we did for my wife's vacation had to be altered at the last minute. A week long trip through Arizona and Utah now had to be canceled and shortened to two nights in Monterey. So we were looking forward to staying here again. Despite our last visit their restaurant was (and apparently still is) under renovations we enjoyed their pool and hot tub and social area immensely. This area had us excited to return.

Cons: I booked it on Sunday, the day before our arrival. The next day on our way down is when I saw the very, VERY disappointing message from the property that their pool and hot tub were closed from late Jan to May 31st for much needed repairs. Too late now to cancel and find another place to stay. The days we were in Monterey the weather was absolutely gorgeous with sunny skies and comfortable temperatures. We were very disappointed as we were looking forward to spending most of our down time while at the property in the pool and the hot tub. It would have been awesome if there was a way for the property to advertise that the pool and hot tub were not available during our stay. That way we could have chosen another property for this particular stay. The next time we come to Monterey and we want to stay at the Monterey Bay Lodge I will surely call down to make sure that the portions of their property that are most important to us are actually available.

Superb

Very good

Monterey is kool!

Pros: Friendly helpful staff. Well-managed motel near Old Monterey. One can bike or walk along adjacent amazing Monterey Bay Coastal Trail to Cannery Row, Aquarium, Pacific Grove, and on, and on! We rented E-bikes at Mad Dogs & Englishmen Bikeshop on Cannery Row and had wonderful day of riding the 17-Mile Trail. That nite, had tacos and good beer at Dust Bowl Brewery near motel! (Steinbeck and the Doc loved beer!)

We’ve stayed here many times...

Pros: Location and value!

Cons: Considering maintenance, construction and repairs that were being done it was still a nice facility.

Very good
