Top Monterey Hotel Reviews

Pacific Inn

Pacific Inn

8/10 Good
"The room (King bed) was spacious and always clean. No problem with the parking and the hotel was full the weekend we stayed. The mini fridge worked perfectly. The microwave too. No noise from the nearby airport only a little from the Fremont blvd but if you’re tired you don’t care about it. The location is pretty close to Monterey downtown and Monterey state beach but being the hotel close to the PCH (1) you can go easily and fast to the beaches north and south of Monterey."
