Convenient to downtown Monterey and to Highway 1, but it's a budget motel and don't expect anything more. My requests emailed to the property and to Expedia requesting an upstairs room were never confirmed or acted upon. I ended up staying on the first floor and the ceiling was paper thin. I heard everything from the room above me. It's common for a propertied to take a temporary deposit and the Pelican Inn did so. It just never mentioned it while I was checking it The Wifi was free and it was "spotty." One of the chairs in the workspace areas was wobbly and potentially dangerous. It you stay at Pelican Inn, expect little and you won't be expected.

This room looked unclean, it smelled horrid (the bathroom was so bad we had to have the bathroom door closed at all times), and you could hear everything anyone in neighbouring rooms did (tv, conversations, walking/footsteps). The pictures online don’t show how unkept this hotel is. There was mold/mildew in corners, the door frame to the bathroom was rotting, and the fixtures were all rusted. The shower didn’t look clean enough to use and the sink water was ice cold no matter how long it ran for to warm up. Not worth the lower price at all.

Inexpensive, so lacked frills (no coffee, modest TV access) but 1/3 less than next cheapest motel; friendly staff.

The Pelican Inn is a great place to stay. Walkable to downtown and the wharf. Staff is great and really knowledgeable about the location. One of the better cheaper hotels in the area and my go to when I stay in Monterey.

Other than that they was no coffee unit in the room, desire pictures shown in their listing to the contrary, as well as no hot water in the room, and the occupants upstairs doing quite the double beast back tango early in the morning, our stay was otherwise nice. The fireplace was a nice touch. Oh! And the volume was stuck to I've level in the TV. I rate the faculty 7 out of 10. I may stay there again, as the other staff was most polite, and our housekeeper most cordial
