Several guests describe responsive management and easy check-in. Recurring drawbacks include noise from the restaurant below or early services like trash collection, mixed comfort of the sofa or mattress, and a couple of reports of heating or temperature control issues. A solid choice for travelers prioritizing space and access over on-site amenities.

This was such a nice apartment with a lot of space and very nicely decorated. There is a great Mexicali restaurant right downstairs that is clearly a locals favorite. Also, just a short walk away were many good restaurants. And I enjoyed walking down to the coast and along the walk with great views of otters, seals and vistas. Really nice place that also had parking. Only a few minutes drive to the aquarium or a half hour walk.

We stayed at this property during the US Women's Open Championship at Pebble Beach. It was very convenient to the course. The apartment is great. Very roomy for two people. All of the dishes and utensils are clean and they look brand new. It is very easy to access. We were worried about possible parking issues, but we never had any difficulty and the parking is close. Very convenient to multiple local restaurants, and it's a very short walk down to the beach, which is beautiful.

Really comfortable and clean. The staff was very responsive. When we had an issue with the entrance code there was someone on the phone immediately and fixed the problem immediately. Everything was well was stocked, place was better than the pictures, lots of natural light. We will stay there again. One thing I could say is that 11 AM is a more reasonable check out time, 10 AM is too early.

The apartment was light, bright and clean. We liked the paint scheme and many large clean windows. The record player was fun. Super close to restaurants, shops and the ocean.We have grown accustomed to 11am checkouts at other places. The 10 am checkout surprised us because we didn't look at the checkout instructions until the morning of. So we had to scramble a little bit.

We walked everywhere from this spot. It is walkable to Lovers Point Beach, restaurants, shops, and the Natural History Museum. It is probably the cleanest vacation rental I have every stayed in. It was quiet and had everything we needed. I highly recommend.

The Apartment is located over a small Mexican Restaurant, Peppers. The bedroom window is over the parking lot and outdoor dinning. Because there is no air conditioning and the floor fan in the bedroom did not work, we had to open the non screened window in the bedroom to be able to sleep. We did not go to bed early, but the noise from the restaurant and the parking lot was loud and kept us up and even woke us up in the night. The trash truck arrived at 3am one morning and was slamming dumpsters for over 40 minutes. There were no screens in the windows, so we were afraid to open them too far just incase the seagulls decided to visit. There were no curtains on two of the windows in the living area, so you kind of felt like you were in a fish bowl. Add some screens, curtains and a working fan and this would have been a 5 star rating. The location in the town is awesome, the apartment was clean and the bed was comfortable. Peppers was convenient and they had good food. Several unique restaurants in walking distance and a short walk to the ocean.

The one-bedroom one-bath Hipster Vibe apartment was perfect for our weekend stay. The location is steps away from the main street of Lighthouse Avenue that boasts great restaurants, cute coffee houses, quaint stores, and the local movie theater! Our first night we didn't venture far and enjoyed dinner at the Mexican restaurant Peppers just downstairs from the apartment, and it has delicious food; try the chicken mole for a treat! The apartment is also just a few blocks from the Monterey Bay and Lovers Point. A great location to begin a walk or bike ride. The apartment was clean, spacious, and bright! We didn't cook, but pots, pans, utensils, and dishes are provided. I highly recommend the Hipster Vibe apartment for your trip to PG! (Note: Don't let the hallway carpet up the stairs to the apartment scare you. It is rather dated, but once you enter the apartment, all is great!)

Every amenity was perfectly described in the Virbo description as were the pictures. Very clean and welcoming. We were able to walk to Cannery Row (about 2 miles but a nice walking path along the coast made it pleasant). We rented e-bikes near by and rode the 17-mile drive around pebble beach golf course and stopping to take in the coast scenery along the way. Shops and restaurants were literally steps away. The Mexican restaurant below the condo has great Margaritas! Of course there is noise associated with being above the restaurant and so close to activities but they are tolerable and not constant. We would definitely come back again!

August 2022 a review touches on some of these points and has a response of: " All the improvements you suggested are in progress (or already supplied)." so I booked The sodium lamp directly outside the bedroom window illuminating the parking lot is not blocked by the flimsy curtains, the bedroom sorely needs blackout curtains. The gap in the entrance door is still visible and needs sealing for noise. Add to that the door lock not sealing without being pulled can be fixed with a trivial bit of handiwork, or tables need to be in the hall so you can set things down while you use both hands to close the door. My only addition is, in 2023 I think memory foam bedding is the only way to go, the vintage bed with two box springs and a lump in the middle was not what I expect with any nice modern rental at this stage and was the worst bed of any rental in the past 3 years which includes properties in nicer locales for less. We bought our own bedding and pillows. Otherwise it's great, but sleep is the foundation that makes a stay.

All was perfect, the only thing from making it 5 star was the heat would not turn on and it got pretty chilly at night. I bet this can be easily fixed in the future.

This property is in a great location, walking distance from lots of shops and restaurants in Pacific Grove. It has lots of bright natural light and is a pleasant environment for the most part. The bed was comfortable, but the living room furniture - a couch and chair - weren’t comfortable for lounging. The other drawback was the fact that it’s above a restaurant that has an outdoor seating area right below the bedroom window, and so we heard the restaurant noise most nights. This place is best for shorter stays when you plan to be out most of the time. For our weeklong stay it was not as comfortable as we’d hoped it would be for the price.

We enjoyed our stay here for the week. It is a convenient location to walk to restaurants and other activities. Our only issue was with the bed and the couch in the living room. The bed could probably use a new mattress; it has a low area on one side. The couch in the living room is not real comfortable to sit on; cushions would make it better. Overall it is a great place to stay and close to everything.

Loved this stay! Had a great time— such a perfect area to be around. Cannery row was super close, and plenty of beach area nearby to explore. Michael was very helpful when we had a fire alarm issue— he fixed the problem fast within the day. My only complaint would be the alarm. Although it got fixed… it was still very sensitive and would go off when we used the oven :( made cooking there a little stressful. Regardless, we would stay again! Thanks michael!

Big windows with great light and a bit of ocean view. Full kitchen with all the tools needed for dining in. Great location, roomy, bright, and comfortable. We look forward to returning!

Plenty of daylight with a view of the bay. Great location. Walking distance to the beach and nearby shops and restaurants. Clean well kept accomodations with plenty of space for a couple. Would rent again without hesitation.

We enjoyed our stay here for the week. It is a convenient location to walk to restaurants and other activities. Our only issue was with the bed and the couch in the living room. The bed could probably use a new mattress; it has a low area on one side. The couch in the living room is not real comfortable to sit on; cushions would make it better. Overall it is a great place to stay and close to everything.

This was such a nice apartment with a lot of space and very nicely decorated. There is a great Mexicali restaurant right downstairs that is clearly a locals favorite. Also, just a short walk away were many good restaurants. And I enjoyed walking down to the coast and along the walk with great views of otters, seals and vistas. Really nice place that also had parking. Only a few minutes drive to the aquarium or a half hour walk.

We walked everywhere from this spot. It is walkable to Lovers Point Beach, restaurants, shops, and the Natural History Museum. It is probably the cleanest vacation rental I have every stayed in. It was quiet and had everything we needed. I highly recommend.

The Apartment is located over a small Mexican Restaurant, Peppers. The bedroom window is over the parking lot and outdoor dinning. Because there is no air conditioning and the floor fan in the bedroom did not work, we had to open the non screened window in the bedroom to be able to sleep. We did not go to bed early, but the noise from the restaurant and the parking lot was loud and kept us up and even woke us up in the night. The trash truck arrived at 3am one morning and was slamming dumpsters for over 40 minutes. There were no screens in the windows, so we were afraid to open them too far just incase the seagulls decided to visit. There were no curtains on two of the windows in the living area, so you kind of felt like you were in a fish bowl. Add some screens, curtains and a working fan and this would have been a 5 star rating. The location in the town is awesome, the apartment was clean and the bed was comfortable. Peppers was convenient and they had good food. Several unique restaurants in walking distance and a short walk to the ocean.

The one-bedroom one-bath Hipster Vibe apartment was perfect for our weekend stay. The location is steps away from the main street of Lighthouse Avenue that boasts great restaurants, cute coffee houses, quaint stores, and the local movie theater! Our first night we didn't venture far and enjoyed dinner at the Mexican restaurant Peppers just downstairs from the apartment, and it has delicious food; try the chicken mole for a treat! The apartment is also just a few blocks from the Monterey Bay and Lovers Point. A great location to begin a walk or bike ride. The apartment was clean, spacious, and bright! We didn't cook, but pots, pans, utensils, and dishes are provided. I highly recommend the Hipster Vibe apartment for your trip to PG! (Note: Don't let the hallway carpet up the stairs to the apartment scare you. It is rather dated, but once you enter the apartment, all is great!)

Every amenity was perfectly described in the Virbo description as were the pictures. Very clean and welcoming. We were able to walk to Cannery Row (about 2 miles but a nice walking path along the coast made it pleasant). We rented e-bikes near by and rode the 17-mile drive around pebble beach golf course and stopping to take in the coast scenery along the way. Shops and restaurants were literally steps away. The Mexican restaurant below the condo has great Margaritas! Of course there is noise associated with being above the restaurant and so close to activities but they are tolerable and not constant. We would definitely come back again!

We loved the location of Hipster Vibe! It's within walking distance to Lover's Point, Cannery Row, and all around Pacific Grove. Walking through the neighborhoods and seeing the plaques on homes that date as far back as the 1880s - such wonderful history in this area! We had a very minor issue one day with our door key code not working and we received immediate, friendly assistance and a new entry code that got us inside within minutes. This kind of responsiveness is so appreciated.Be aware that there is a very popular (and delicious) restaurant located below this unit so there were typical dining and commercial kitchen noises until late in the evening, more noticeable to us because we had the bedroom window open. A cool bonus to this unit is a turntable and vinyl records that we enjoyed every evening as we relaxed after our day's activities. We found a record store a couple of blocks away and were able to find a few more albums of our own to listen to and take home. It was a great way to unwind each day and added to the hipster vibe of it all.Thanks for a great stay!

Hipster Vibe is a great location. You can easily walk down to the ocean at Lover’s Point and you can walk to the cute shops on Pacific Grove’s Main Street. The unit is located right above a great Mexican restaurant which was also a plus for us. Also very close to Monterrey and the aquarium. Ample parking right beside the building.

Great location and clean - nice little place ! Very noisy Monday morning with garbage etc beginning before 6:00am and non stop - that’s the down side to staying downtown . You don’t come here to watch TV but it would be nice to have even local network TV - lots of premium stuff but if you don’t a subscription……..
