It was a nice place to stay overnight. Everything was clean and operational in the room. My only concern was the parking because I went out and when I came back there was one spot left. Luckily, a cone was there, so I was able to have a spot.

The motel room was pleasant, and nicely decorated. We've stayed here 2 or 3 times before. The microwave oven was dirty, and covered with fingerprints on the outside, and encrusted food on the inside. We left the plate out, for housekeeping to notice. Check-in was unpleasant. The manager/owner(?)/clerk was polite on the surface, but treated us with irrational suspicion. He took my ID and credit card through a window from the outside, and disappeared to another area for around 10 minutes. I had the feeling that he was trying to verify our identities? I can't even imagine why; the room was pre-paid, and we were repeat guests. We had paid in advance with my husband's credit card (same surname and address), but he demanded to have my credit card, which he turned over several times, remarking even that the magnetic stripe was compromised and that "some people do that on purpose". (It was because of that scratched stripe that we paid with my husband's card.) I've never been looked at so suspiciously by a motel clerk (or anyone in the service industry for that matter) for a prepaid service. I understand this happens to black and brown people more than for someone like me... but honestly, no one who is polite and responsive at a point of service should be made to feel so unwelcome. We will not stay there again. Monterey is known for being a tourist friendly place. I should know, because I'd grown up there, and return and visit frequently for family and other business.

Front desk person(sorry I can't remember her name) was extremely kind and helpful. I had called before to make a couple requests and she went out of her way to accommodate me. Room was clean and appliances worked great. Ice machine near by. Nothing fancy but suited my needs perfectly

The Pelican Inn is my go to Motel when visiting my son at CSUMB. Small Quaint motel with everything you need. Rooms are spacious, bathrooms are large, property is quiet, and the couple that run it are the friendliest I've come across in the area. Very personable and inviting. They always remember me and go out of their way to make me and my family comfortable. It would be nice if they added coffee in the lobby or individual pots in the rooms. But overall The Pelican Inn is outstanding.

Staff was very friendly and helpful, overall a good experience. Room was clean though older feel to the place...but fine for my single night. Close and safe enough to walk to fishermans wharf so got to enjoy the nearby area without having to drive.
