Wish I had more time at this lodge. Found this last minute while booking on our PCH drive. Super cute. Friendly staff. Didn’t get to take advantage of the pool and fire pit…we were super tired but did walk from lodge to restaurants and beach.

No breakfast, old but renovated. Comfy bed.

The hotel is very old, but has been renovated. The pool was warm and wonderful for December 18th. The bed was comfortable, but pillows were a little sad. There is no breakfast. It is walkable to downtown. The area was safe and close to the waterfront.

The room that was occupied above us was nonstop noise. From 8 PM until 4 AM in the morning they were constantly moving around, shuffling their feet, stomping up and down and doing who knows what? To the left of me, the room next-door was a young couple who were getting their freak on for what seemed like every hour on the hour. If the location weren’t so close to the proximity of the pier I’d stay elsewhere.

Monterey Bay Lodge Pros and Cons

My family arrived in the evening for a two night stay at the Monterey Bay Lodge for my daughters birthday. Pros: - Economical - Pool is clean and enjoyable for kids - Close to the beach, local park and coffee shops - Patio/Balcony is a nice add Cons: - Close to the local airport, extremely loud - Parking lot closes to the gas station is too small, very hard to get in and out. - Rooms are small - Floors very dirty, we had to clean it when we arrived. - Bathroom paint was chipping - TV is mounted way too high - Desk chair does not tuck under the desk and sticks out into the room. - No public bathroom for the pool - No cushions on the outdoor furniture during the month of November.
