Bayside Inn

"For the price, it was amazing. Room was clean, service was fantastic. Only issues were that our room was pretty small so it was hard to walk around each other, the door didn’t seem very safe (not many locks) so we put the chair in front of it, the toilet was very close to the wall where your legs hit the wall while you are sitting, and the shower was extremely small. There is no longer a breakfast provided but there was an amazing diner down the street. But for it being one of the cheapest motels in Monterey, it was definitely worth the stay."

"Check-in was smooth and fast. Person that received me was very friendly and accommodating.. Soap and shampoo provided, but I really wish there was toothpaste too! I'm a traveler that flew in so I didn't bring toothpaste and assumed it would be included in toiletries. There is a CVS very close by though. Towels and the bedding seemed clean. There's a built in heater, closet, hot shower w tub. Location is harder to get to than I thought. I didn't rent a car and depended on walking/public transit. The bus system is quite bad-- many busses come once an hour and I often had to walk 15min or more. This is not the Inn's fault obviously, but my experience would have been much better if I had a car. The inn is about a 5min drive from waterfront and 10min drive from centers. I was anxious about previous reviews that reflected noise complaints, but that depends a lot on the neighbors you end up with. I had no noise issues at all-- it seems like people tend to stay quiet in the evenings. Commute aside, great experience! Stay was quiet and comfortable. Wifi supported my zoom meetings, and some decent restaurants nearby. Would recommend."

"There are very tiny and quite old fashioned rooms from which in the first one the Aircon didn’t work. At least there is a coffeemaker and a refrigerator in the room. The roomdoor doesn’t give much security cause it looks very unstable."

"Do not waste your money or time. My wife was not able to breathe and the owner did not care. It smelled like mothballs and toilet cleaner. It was incredibly stuffy and outdated. Don't bring anyone you care about here. The beds were ANCIENT and uncomfortable. Spend the extra 15 bucks and go to a Best Western . The walls were paper thin and it was in a super rough area."

"I stayed at the Bayside Inn this Saturday and not only was the check in super easy, the gentleman at the counter was nice and accommodating. The room was very clean, smelled nice and I felt safe. The air conditioning worked really well! The price point was really good! I will definitely book here again!! If you are in the area, book your room here!!"
