I was very disappointed with my stay at Padre Oaks. My husband ,myself and another adult couple were staying here on our way down the coast, we checked the ratings on the internet and the location everything seemed wonderful we thought we were getting a great deal, but we were horribly mistaken. We arrived at 1:30 pm, thirty minutes before... more

I have never been treated so poorly, stayed in such a filthy room or been discriminated against until I stayed at Padre Oaks Inn. The room was horrible, the management extremely unprofessional and discriminated against me because there were two women staying in the same room. I had an unexplained charge on my credit card after leaving and when I... more

This is ok for a cheap motel but that's all it is. The walls are paper thin, I was woken up in the wee small hours by someone in the next room snoring!!! Parking is very tight, especially when there are large jeeps and 4x4's squashed in there. Breakfast is a case of go to reception (a very small room)... more

I am on the road for 21 days. 21 days, 19 motels. I am following RT 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica. I will continue from there up the California coast thru San Francisco and I will end my journey in Sacramento. From there I will fly back to Chicago. I will review my every stop on the way. I... more

Very reasonable rates ($55/65/45/45 for a Fri/Sat/Sun/Mon night stay), conveniently located, clean room, and friendly front-desk service. A couple of sacrifices: the continental breakfast consisted only of small pastries and pre-poured/lidded styrofoam cups of orange juice, and had to be eaten in your room (although there was a coffee maker, refrigerator, and table/chairs in the room). In addition, the water... more

We paid $45 for a Friday night in November 2005. That price was at least $20 less than other motels in the area for the same night. Fine to spend a night or 2 but not for a romantic getaway. Plus: Cheap! Really clean Fridge in the room Decent shower pressure Ample hot water Cable tv Table + 2 chairs... more

We were traveling North up the coast from Los Angeles when we found ourselves in Monterey for the night of October 21, 2005. I looked in a Travel Coupon Guide to find where motels were in the area. We choose the Padre Oaks Motel on Munras Ave. It was very clean, quiet and roomy. I would be happy to stay... more

We stayed at the Padre Oaks this past weekend and I was impressed with the cleanliness of the room. The decor is a bit dated, but NOT run-down. Pros: * Clean...VERY clean * location, close to downtown and a short jaunt to Carmel * mini-fridge at no extra charge * courteous staff * in-house coffee * morning breakfast pastries, fruit,... more

I drove up and down the strip in Monterey looking for a place to spend the night for a reasonable price. The visitor center doesn't mention Padre Oaks. This is probably good, because it would always be booked to capacity. It is a motel probably from the 50s or 60s that has been remodeled. It is squeaky clean from top... more
