The Pacific Inn

not sure why this place gets such low review level. but my experience was very pleasant. free breakfast, limited options for sure but they did serve on time and fresh. nice staff and convenient location. clean rooms with fridge and microwave. we did hear some noise from upstairs kids but that was settled after 9pm. hard to find a better price in that area with that price.

I think this hotel provided all the basic needs. Our room was well lit, no bed bugs in our bed, very clean rooms and bathroom. The only complaint is the wifi gets very very slow, but for the price we paid, everything was worth it. There is also breakfast provided in the morning — waffles, eggs, bread, juice, coffee. Nothing fancy, but is definitely enough to eat.

The hotel is nice enough and the room was clean, but the staff is terrible. The manager threatened to charge us extra fees after we checked in.
Disputes can be handled professionally and amicably. Unfortunately, this isn’t how the staff treated us and it put a major damper on our vacation. I had a terrible experience at this hotel, but the hotel itself is good enough.

We checked in and checked out after 15 mins. Pulled the bedding back and there were random stands of hair on the bed. On the top blanket there appeared to be old stained blood. The white colored towels had a yellowish brown tint to them. And to top it off, the parking lot is hard to maneuver around. For what they charge, I would recommend you stay at a different place.

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.

So this place isn’t the fanciest fancy hotel out there, but for booking last minute on a holiday weekend I was totally okay with this place. The front desk was very helpful when we asked for places to go, or even when I needed an emergency safety pin he was able to give me one. They also have a free breakfast in the morning which was convenient. The only thing I didn’t like was the closet bc it was dirty gross & also broken. But, this place did their job so I can’t complain. Thanks!

Nice big rooom, clean. Quiet.
Ok breakfast– bath room nice
only downside was no cups for in room coffee, no creamer, sugar stirrer sticks either.
they asked me if I had a dog when I checked in. they mean it when they say no dogs. (I don’t have one) so not an issue for me.

SUPER CLEAN! Comfy beds. Extremely quiet. No pool and small older bath tubs but I would Definitely come back and stay here again.

DOG PARK is a catch. They see you walk your dog and return any where near your room with dog and they will of charge you. It took me a week to get ahold of someone to find out this was what the extra $ 33.24 was charged for. The women I spoke with said there is no sneaking around with dogs that they will find out. The dog park is In front of the office, it’s impossible to «sneak around» with a dog. Simply state that you have a dog fee! No one was sneaky but them. For the price after fees I would recommend staying at hotel abrego. It’s about the same after the sneakiness of the management of this hotel.
Also. Our cable did not work. We where told someone would call back in thirty mins to fix it. We ended up going out to watch what we wanted to see. We came back and it still didn’t work. The manager came and fixed it. He thanked us for our patience.
Also the room that we stayed in was next to the housekeep stock room. They began slamming things around bright in early. Don’t stay in room 205.
We have stayed here several times from the beginning when these people had taken over this hotel. When they where working out the little issues and we had patience then too. BUT after this I will not return. This place isn’t anything special to pay 130buck a night for and check in doesn’t start until after 3pm. Never again. Greedy sneaky people.

Nice rooms and staff but a few issues: parking limited and walls super thin. I could hear the TV dialogue in the next room going to sleep and then we were woken up by the neighbors’ alarm and started searching around for our own phones, only to realize it was theirs going off. Just glad there was nothing sexy going on bc there is no privacy. We were excited about being able to have our dogs ($ 30 each) but the dog next door was very yappy and barked at everything. Her owners didn’t try to stop her either. Breakfast options were pastries, boiled eggs, and waffles.

Pros: The staff were very friendly and were helpful when we needed them. Location is also pretty good. It’s about 5 minutes away from everywhere that we wanted to go and 10 minutes from Carmel. The beds were also very comfortable.
Cons: The parking lot is. Interesting. The parking spots are all in random spots and very hard to access. Better if you have a small car.
The rooms were very dirty. And falling apart. *see pictures* The price for the rooms was nearly $ 200 a night, so you would assume that your room would at least be clean.
The only plug they had for the television, fridge, microwave, and coffee pot was hanging half way down from the dresser. *see picture* and did not look very safe. I think they should figure out a better way to plug things in.
The shower was less than desirable. First, the ceiling looks like it’s caving in from being so old. *see pictures* The water pressure is awful (sinks and shower both) and the shower head is extremely hard to turn on. The water pressure is close to nothing, so I hope you aren’t too dirty. The bathroom was by far the worst part of the room.
I also hope that your neighbors are quiet because you can hear everything above and next to you. If you turn the AC on it will drown out the noise.
Overall, it’s very expensive for what you get and because it was pretty dirty, we won’t be staying again.

Pros: The room was a decent size, it was super clean, the bed was super comfy.
Cons: the bathtub was old and had some rust in it, it’s fine for a shower but not for a bath. The water pressure is horrible but you get clean… The parking is pretty cramped and hard to maneuver in.
You can hear your neighbors walking around, closing doors etc. But we turned on the A/​C unit and couldn’t hear them anymore.
Either Or: The pool is filled in and use for a dog walk area, which could be a plus if you have dogs.
The free breakfast is cereal, muffins, waffles, hard boiled eggs, coffee and juice.
For the price, I probably won’t come back but it wasn’t a bad experience.

Clean, nice room. We needed a dog friendly room and found this hotel using Bring Fido. We got the last dog friendly room and booked the day before we showed up. It was $ 130 and not as funny as other reviews made it sound. The AC worked, shower was great, and everything was clean. Breakfast in the morning was pretty skimpy. The waffle maker doesn’t cook waffles long enough so they were doughy in the middle. We’d go back for a cheaper, dog friendly place to stay.

I am going to be blunt about this hotel. It is a DUMP !!!
For what they charge it is a crime!!! Maybe if it was 75.00 nite, but 260.00 plus tax. They could a least patch the holes in the wall!!! It is run down dump. I’d sooner sleep in my car !!
PS: Couldn’t get cold water for a drink. WTF
Okay I am an early riser, I thought I would shower before my wife wakes. NO FUCKING WATER TO SHOWER !!! or maybe I am a dumb ass and just don’t know how to work the faucet. I don’t think so !!! We were in a jam when we booked this place
Read reviews, most people gave 2 – 3 stars. I wouldn’t give it anything. Took my money, now to try to get some kind of refund.

Nice guy at check in. Room is moderately clean. $ 220 for a night for a motel room. Parking is bad. We finally found one spot. The last one. No cold water in faucet. Spiders. Blood on towel. Door between rooms. We can hear everything the neighbors do. Things, we really don’t want to hear. Sounds are so loud as if there was no wall between the two rooms. Now loud dog barking. Earlier super loud music. And last night… hmmm, I’ll keep this comment G rated. Crappiest place I’ve been to. It would be 0 stars is it was possible. I give one extra star for the front office guy. He’s nice.

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
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.

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.

Water pressure here was near non-​existent (understandably considering we’re in a drought, but made it difficult to wash out all the shampoo in my hair). Our sink counter was ridiculously low and made us wonder if the room was a handicap accessible one (it wasn’t.)
It’s a decent spot. Internet is free and pretty quick. Free breakfast… waffle station is pretty awesome. You get what you pay for is all I can say.
The parking is kind of a pain. The spaces are pretty small and can be a pain to get out of.
I wouldn’t mind staying here again, but it wouldn’t be my first choice.

It’s not super fancy, but it’s nice enough and they allow dogs. Hardwood floors in the room weren’t what my wife was expecting but I prefer them.
For a night or two it’s perfectly acceptable, if it’s a longer stay it’s still good for the price.

Not the best hotel experience but the staff was really nice. they have complementary breakfast from 7−9am.
I tried to save a little money on our trip up north so I wasn’t looking to splurge on hotels and this place seemed to fit the bill. The location is ideal – really close to the freeway and close to all the other main attractions that you want to check out when in Monterey.
I would recommend this place, it was great while we stayed here.
