We stayed in the oceanfront room.. beautiful view.. but the sea lions nearby barks nonstop.. and they are loud.. even with the doors closed. Had to use earplugs to sleep at night.

Our first visit to the Inn was overall good; the staff was excellent across the board and the views from our room were great! The room needs some maintenance, as the slider never sealed properly, so the cold air was coming through and the noise level was higher. We also wish there was something else to eat at the property other than the very nice continental breakfast

I honestly can't understand the positive reviews this hotel has. Our stay was awful, the building is old and not in a charming way visible cracks in the walls, chipped/stained furniture etc. The main selling point it's balcony with a view of the ocean was nice BUT they neglected to sound proof the sliding glass door. The sound of seagulls is nice at first but quickly becomes a noisy nuisance when they're right outside squawking all night. They said the room had a king bed, it was a queen. The fold out couch bed was uncomfortable and the beds were itchy we felt like things were crawling on us at night. The hot tubs were mediocre and cramped. Overall I wish we had stayed just down the street at the much nicer and larger hotel with the large lobby and built in restaurant (you know the one I'm talking about) I wouldn't recommend staying at the Monterey Bay inn.

Perfect addition for getaway trip
Had a great night stay here with my daughters. This Hotel had everything I was looking for. Beautiful view. Short walk to the aquarium, beaches, and to fisherman's wharf. Price reasonable and more affordable then other hotels nearby. Breakfast included which is a major plus. They have a car charger which was super helpful for us! Definitely will return. Will bring a stroller for my littlest next time to make walking to places easier.
