The room was exactly as pictured. Clean, recently renovated (I stayed at this property back in a day when it was Comfort Inn). Location is great. Bed (mattress) and pillows could be of better quality.

1. Furniture is outdated. Chest with drawers is taking up all the space in a room. The matte door to the bathroom offers no privacy. Pillows are small and lumpy and of terrible quality. And they charge 10 dollars a day for the parking spot if you didn't book directly with them. What?!? I have never heard of that! It's a motel with plenty of parking spots! Absolutely shameful practice to make extra money.

Very easy to get to and a short drive to downtown Monterey, which is a delightful place to stroll for breakfast or a drink. The staff were friendly. The room was adequate and enough space for a pack-n-play for our infant to sleep.

It has gotten progressively more expensive to stay anywhere in Monterey, but relative to the facilities (essentially a motor inn/motel) value wise it was rather expensive.

The room was clean, bed was comfortable, parking lot was easily accessible, pool area was nice and the staff was friendly and helpful. The lobby and the landscaping around the facility were clean and nice looking. It was also nice and quiet at night, no disturbances.

The shower curtain didn't keep the shower water from getting all over the bathroom floor even with a towel down. It either needed to be longer or they need some sort of lip at the edge of the shower to keep the water in. The coffee pot in the room needed to be clean a little better and descaled. I didn't utilize the coffee because of this.

Lovely pool and bbq areas. Absolutely beautiful garden beds. Walkable to town. On-site parking. Large room.

Very dirty floor in room. Not visibly dirty but our socks were black when walking around in room. It would trail into the bathroom and turn the floor black if it was wet. Room leak on the last day from shower above. Surprised by on site parking charge. I guess it was in the fine details when I booked, which I missed. Seemed strange to be changed parking fees when they had a private lots in this strip motel.

The room was absolutely beautiful—clean and super comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised by the high-quality shampoo and soap, which isn’t something you always get. Honestly, it exceeded my expectations, with an incredible value for the price and great facilities. The staff was so kind and made check-in easy, even though we arrived later than planned. Plus, the included parking was a big bonus. Such a lovely place—I’d definitely stay here again!

staff was very friendly, very clean, quiet, easy parking

having to pay for parking, cleaning woman came into our room as we were moving our things out so did not notice a bag behind the door she had open. Now have to pay to have the quite heavy bag of Christmas gifts shipped to us which will likely cost more than the gifts. Cleaning staff should not enter a room until people are finished completely moving out of it.

Very helpful and friendly staff (exceptionally good). for a motel style hotel it's surely one of the better ones. things were working, and well maintained. there was a fridge, micro wave, coffee and tea, a good bed. we felt well served and recommend the place for Monterey.

the heating is loud, like every where in US hotels. the USA know little about efficiency heating, let alone insolation. but that is not specific to this hotel.

We absolutely loved our stay in Monterey! The location was perfect for us to pick food and snacks for our kiddos during our stay. We were close to everything we wanted to experience. The staff were friendly, the rooms were clean and the beds were comfy. We had plenty of space to accommodate a family of 5 between 2 rooms. Our kids enjoyed the outside pool and we took advantage of the awesome coffee/hot chocolate bar in the front lobby. Checking in and out was a breeze with text reminders.

The room I stayed in could use a new shower head, the water flow is not ideal for a comfortable shower.

everything was modern and super close distance to a shopping center as well as the aquarium. they had a mini fridge, microwave and small coffee station which was super convenient for leftovers or a longer stay. staff was super nice and we’ll most likely stay here if we plan a trip to Monterey again :)

i could’ve used 2 pillows because as comfy as they are they do sink you down lol, but definitely comfy over all and spacious

This is our fifth visit, we have family in Monterey. This is a great place, simple but fine. Remember to visit Monterey when there is nothing going on at Pebble Beach if it’s not a concern for you. Room rates skyrocket, and our favorite place is not immune. We arrived one day after the PGA tour, happily. Well placed in town. Walking distance to the large mall😁.

The weather, but that’s not anything they can do anything about. The rooms are a bit small, but there is everything you could need.
