Lone Oak Lodge

"This was an amazing location . I was taken care of from the first phone call I made. They were friendly over the phone and very understanding over the phone and it was the same experience in person. I would recommend it to everyone especially if you are a scuba diver like myself. This is a diver friendly hotel and they have area to rinse your gear. Which is a plus. I was able to connect with a potential new dive buddy that I met at this hotel. They have all type of rooms all the way down to a cottage with a jacuzzi . If you are a driver and see this message you will appreciate it. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions social media @iamblackscubabear @bearblessings Mario"

"Great place for an overnight visit to Monterey. Room was nice and had a mini fridge and microwave. We had a two bedroom room, but there was no door to the second room. The second room could have also used a side table for cell phones, etc. Also, the spa/jacuzzi building had a "permanently closed" sign. Overall, I would stay there again."

"One of my preferred value hotels when staying in Monterey. It is clean, quiet and comfortable. The price is very reasonable. Also seems to be recently renovated. The location is really good. I only have one issue, there are no black-out curtains (they use wood slatted blinds) and the light leakage from the bright parking lot lights at night is very annoying to my sleep. I wish they would address this issue in the future."

"Fair priced rooms. Very very clean with easy parking. No continental breakfast and nothing special in the rooms but at $50-60 you get what you need. I think they have hot tube rooms also for a little more $ of course."

"Our overall stay was nice, the room was clean, the kitchen and bath counters looked new and the location was perfect and the diver rinse area was great. If I were to rate the hotel I would give it a 1.5 and an extra 0.5 for the rinse area making it a total of 2 stars. The reason is there were so many things either wrong or we did not have based on the website info that instead of getting upset we could only laugh at it. We were in room #46. At first glance, it was like a clean old house with old furniture. I had to fix 1 end table drawer, the drawer for the desk and stove because all were off their slider. Half of the drapes were unhooked and hanging down. Things I found later was that the fireplace only worked on one temp and the flame light didn't work. The fan had no way to turn it on. When I asked I was told it wasn't supposed to work because we had AC but room #1 that was remodeled had both and they both worked. The kitchen chairs were all rusted. Most of the cabinets would not close. Also, upon reading the website info, it said we should have a safe, flowers, and cable channels. We didn't have the first 2 and if we had cable channels we could find them. I do have pictures of everything and for the cost of our room, I think we were overcharged. One other problem is the firepit. There isn't a sign on it saying it was out of order. Our group had a gathering there and two of the guys had to go fill the propane tank and the pilot and control never worked properly. We were able to make it work but it should be repaired or replaced. To me, it appears there are new owners of the hotel and they have overlooked many things while trying to remodel it. We weren't the only people in our group that had issues and that's why it all became comical. The sad part is I was the one who told everyone to stay at the Lone Oak based on info I received from friends a couple of years back."
