Top Chinatown Hotel Reviews

Monterey Beach Hotel, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Rather than considering the comfort of disabled or seniors The ice machine’s are on the far right on every floor: they used to be on the bottom floor near the elevators (middle of building). It was handy having several hooks to hang medical supplies. The staff volunteered to help me carry my husband’s dialysis meds to the room (very helpful). We enjoyed the sounds, privacy & beautiful views. The binocular’s in the room was a good touch."

Carmel Mission Inn

6/10 Okay

"I was surprised by all the hidden fees that were not revealed to us when we booked with you. I.E. $30- FOR PARKING - why do you have to pay for parking at your place? It's a large parking lot. Why do you have to pay to use the pool -$10. that should be complimentary for guests as should morning coffee. Kiosk wasn't open so I ended up buying $9.00 cup of coffee from you - that's outragously high. And paying $100 for a pet - I understand a pet fee but your costs are ridicously high for enjoyable stay - I won;t book here again"

Lone Oak Lodge

4/10 Poor

"We stayed one night in this hotel, the hotel is clean, the staff also works great. The bed is ok, pillows are pretty hard. I don’t like the bathroom, it is small and smelly. The only thing I want to complain about is the hotel's soundproofing, which is very poor, especially when the room next door is using water, it gets extremely noisy and loud."

Lovers Point Inn

4/10 Poor

"The room was okay, definitely outdated and really warm inside. The mattresses were super hard and the springs were either damaged or extremely worn in some places. The one side of the bed had an indent where it felt like you would roll off from it. The rest of the room was ok, smaller bathroom with really low shower faucet. Older carpet. I wouldn’t have rated it low just because of this, but did so due to the extreme amount of noise at night. First it started off with someone purposely stepping super loud back and forth on the balcony and then laughing. People kept being loud late into the night. Around 2am, a man started screaming loudly outside near the check in area, saying things like peeka-boo, I see you and strange things like that. Then a man and younger man walked down in front of our room soon after. I don’t know if they were the ones screaming or someone else, but they were talking loudly as well. It put us on edge and I couldn’t sleep well because of that. With the amount of money you pay per night, they could really use some updates and maybe some kind of security. They need to monitor what is happening on their property, especially late at night and early A.M. other than that, it was nice being right across from Lover’s Point. The ocean location is the only reason I booked it."

Carmel Bay View Inn

6/10 Okay

"Conveniently located, ample parking, pool. Rooms are spacious and clean but dated. Many rooms face the parking lot or walkways, noise isolation is very poor: you hear your neighbors on all sides and above, you hear other travelers walking by your window, you hear cars etc. Breakfast is edible and I would leave it at that. The whole thing reminded me of a roadside motel - functional but not memorable."
