We had a short(we we're traveling to Sequoia National Park from San Francisco), but great stay at the Mermaid Room. Jamie made sure she was present when we arrived. The room was very nice, spacious and bright. The best feature was the 4 minute walk trough the dunes to a great beach!
Pacific grove is very nicely located on the peninsula and seems nice and quiet. Jamie had plenty of information available on things to do in the area. A good place to visit that Jamie recommended us is Lovers Point Park, great views and with a very nice restaurant "Beach House".
