Wonderful - comfortable bed, fun vintage touches, clean and tidy and immaculate bathroom! Perfect location - easy walk to all Pacific Grove has to offer and minutes from the Aquarium!

Liked: Staff & service
Everything was ok except the linen looked dirty. I think that it was old and gray. The bedding could have been nicer. The towels were gray also. At breakfast several people were talking about how the sheets and towels were gray and looked dirty. Don't think that they were dirty just old and needed replacing.
The pictures on the website are misleading. Our room had purple walls with blue paint dripping down one side. Every thing felt worn out and very dated. Tiny bathroom and stained towels. Seriously disappointing but grateful we only had to stay there for one night. The breakfast is minimal but fine. Good location is the only positive. Total let down. I'm surprised by all of the good reviews but maybe none of those folks stayed in the room we had. :(

Love this sweet little house. We took our coffee on the front porch rocking chairs and felt like a local.
Our room was dirty upon check in (hair in the bathroom, stained sheets and towels, dust bunnies). I let the hotel know, and they didn’t seem concerned or offer a solution.
Professional and friendly staff, clean comfortable rooms and location, location, location! Beaches, wildlife, wharf, restaurants and sweet downtown PG!!!
Delighted with our days at Pacific Grove thanks to the welcoming and kind staff at Centrella! Excellent location a few blocks from the beach, delicious farmers market and clean/comfortable accommodations!
We stayed in a cottage and it’s spacious and clean. The inn is in great location, walkable to dining, shops and beach area. Breakfast is a bonus and tasty. Friendly staff and charming place.
The room was clean. The house was really nice.
Breakfast a nice change from other hotels the only problem that the room was pretty small nowhere to put a suitcase or toiletries but for one night, it was fine
Very disappointed with our stay. The photographs online make the overall condition of the Centrella look brand new compared to what it is.
The building is run down, the walls in our room had flaking off paint, stains, and busted hardware. The bed was falling apart and the linens were all off white. On top of this the shower went from hot to cold every time someone flushed.
We left feeling ripped off given how much we paid and comparing the cost to other similarly priced accommodations in Pacifica Grove.
Only thing this place still has going for it is the location.
If you are looking for a bed and breakfast with nostalgia then look no further. The staff is very nice and courteous. The rooms have an attached bath. The room and the bathroom are small but adequate. There are no real frills. I did open the armoire to find a drying rack, ironing board, iron, and hair dryer. There are a few plugs in the room to charge phone. There is minimal counter space in the bathroom and sleeping room. It was my first B&B and i think that it was cute and welcoming and charming.
