"After coming to this location for more than two years they STILL do not have an operational ice machine. They have ice buckets in the rooms though. The refrigerators in the rooms don’t even have freezer compartments. Location is right off of the freeway which is a plus. The only staff person I have ever seen at this location is at check-in/check-out. "

"Loved the location being next to the beach. Clean and comfortable rooms. The only thing I disliked was the pillows being flat."

"Check in process was great. The Inn is located in an excellent spot close to everything. Pack a small fan because if it is warm, your room will be warm. It’s very clean, but the bleach smell was overwhelming when we first walked in. The light breakfast is nice and thoughtful. "

"I’ve been coming here for 20 years. Great location. Easy and safe parking. Pet-friendly. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, and great outdoor space. "

"The pictures are very old- all I’m going to say. Breakfast was pastries, instant oatmeal and a banana. Rooms were clean but not anything special. Housekeeping was very active on the property- huge kudos to them because you could smell the cleaner in the room instantly and they were always busy walking around with their carts. Don’t expect anything stellar. "

"I love the portola! Only place I stay and travel almost monthly down to Monterey. The rooms are always clean, spacious, the beds are very comfy. Partial bay view is a must. Balcony has two chairs nice to enjoy ur coffee on or listen to some wildlife (sea lions). Basically 4 restaurants attached to the hotel, Carmel bakery n coffee inside the hotel. The location is prime! Walk right and head down Alvarado st you got ur breweries and 10-15 restaurants. Go left and you’re on the Monterey pier , 7 restaurants, a bunch of clothes ans candy shops and my favorite whale watching. I do every time and it’s so close to portola. "

"Very nice stay. We have a service dog and the accommodations were perfect. We had a downstairs’ room with a fenced in courtyard. Perfect for our dog. "

"Ocean with the moonlight was beautiful. The sunrise was even better. 100/10"

"My room was nicely renovated and my room had a ocean view. The hotel is close to restaurants and downtown area. I would stay here again!"
