Terrible because I had an emergency and Expedia said Hotel was going to charge me one charge to cancel. I case if an emergency I feel Hotel should have refunded all nights. I even cancelled before arriving. They could have booked rooms.

We came here to stay from a nice hotel in San Francisco and it was a bit of a shock to the system! Having said that, it was a fine base for our stay. We stayed in the two room cottage and it was pretty tight for a family of 5 and all our luggage. The place is clean - minus the random dusty sock under the bed - but a bit tired. The bed is the separate bedroom was only a double which meant our feet hung out the end while our kids enjoyed the two queen beds in the other room. Don’t leave any food / drink out as the ants will be all over it - even a used cup, but there is a fridge to store food in. We found Pacific Grove really chilly having come through Gilroy on the way but glad to say there was a heater in the bedroom. Can recommend going to the Red House Cafe for a great breakfast.

Room was interesting with two queen beds when you walk in and then a little hall with a fridge and microwave. then a room with a double bed and the bathroom. different kind of setup but it worked. the bathroom and shower were very small and outdated. A little pricy for what we got but I guess being Pacific Grove they can charge more.

Great property - horrible WiFi for business.

All was great except for the WiFi which was a disaster. One bar IF you stood next to the window. I thought I’d be able to relax, while still conducting business, but the WiFi issues made that impossible.

I loved how comfortable and how huge their king size bed was. The area was quiet which I loved when I’m on vacation. The place was clean and dog friendly. Aaron was super nice, he watched our belongings while we were out and about very trustworthy employees. Maybe since they are dog friendly inn they should have an area where dogs can handle their business(bathroom). The shower room was very tiny and narrow, the water pressure from the shower comes out weak I understand they are big on saving water but it definitely took me an hour to get done in the shower. The show from the tv comes out smaller than the actual tv size we tried to adjust it and make it bigger but we couldn’t. Overall we enjoyed our stay also it was affordable and super close to the beach. Will definitely stay here again.
