It was okay. Everything was clean and very lovely plants outside added to the aesthetic of the place. Check in was the worst ever with them telling me my payment had been declined. Very embarrassing especially when I had a receipt and proof the funds had been taken out of my bank. After a 30 min call, they got it straightened out but I never received a reason for the mix-up. I still don’t know if it was on the Expedia side or the property’s side. The bed appeared comfy at first but as the night went on it was not comfy at all. Nice play area for the doggies. Filled in the old pool and covered with turf so they could be off leash in a gated area.

Took my little dog on vacation to Monterey for a few days. This hotel was absolutely perfect. I intentionally booked the room with the big tub and I LOVED it. Was so nice to relax after all the walking & site seeing we had done during the day. For the dog owners that love their pet enough to bring them along, there is a beautiful gated courtyard for your dog to be off leash & potty. It had several picnic tables too. The owners were phenomenal and incredibly friendly. I will for sure be booking future Monterey trips here. Had the absolute best time with my little dog.

Our stay was a mix of pros and cons. The bathroom was clean, but the beddings didn’t smell freshly laundered. The Keurig worked at first but stopped after two uses. The TV wasn’t working, but that was on us for not reporting it right away—it only got fixed the morning we checked out. On the plus side, the front desk staff was very helpful and accommodating, even sharing great tips for breakfast and dinner spots. Overall, still worth coming back to on our next visit to the area.

This motel was on main road directly across from Del Monte Shopping center. It conveniently located minutes away from the aquarium, Cannery Road, beaches, and the wharf. Check in staff/manager was friendly. Downside is that the room was so DIRTY and full of MOLD. The shower curtain was covered in mold, corners of the room had mold, the floor had hard water stains like it cant completely dry which causes a foul odor. The headboard had head and hand prints. We walked around in white socks and it was black within minutes. The blinds were also broken and the door had gaps with janky locks. Definitely a health and safety hazard all around. Save yourself and your family and stay somewhere else.

Purchase 2 rooms here in Monterey. This is the dirtiest place I have ever stay or encounter on a Vacation. Both rooms were dirty. The guy at the front desk said he can’t do anything but give me another room. So we took it and that one was dirty. Not only was the first room dirty but shower didn’t work. Couldn’t even make my kids get off the bed. The guys was suppose to give me discount on each room. I wouldn’t recommend staying here. Definitely if traveling with kids

I stayed here during Monterey Car week so it was crazy expensive BUT it was a great. The room was very generously sized and well equipped. I liked the fact that the windows were large so I could either turn the AC on or enjoy the breeze. The beds were very nice and firm and the room was surprisingly quiet. The staff was extremely welcoming as well. The walkways and the stairs could use some refreshing and the towels were quite skimpy. The two remotes for the TV was very confusing, but Wi-Fi was speedy. Overall, I would stay here again, which says a lot!

I like that the room is updated and there’s a very nice shopping mall across the street. However, the water in the shower at this place reeks badly, almost like it’s untreated outdoor water flowing in from the ocean. Disgusting. Never encountered this issue in over 40 years of traveling. Dan The Man at the front is very nice. But there’s really no compensating for a serious flaw like the shower water grossness.

Property was conveniently located in the area, easy to get an Uber to downtown. We booked the king suite with the jetted tub. Which didn’t even work. So that’s was a bummer, room was okay, very small and a little run down. Bed was old and springy and pillows were okay. For the price it was okay but I wouldn’t stay here again because of the comfort level I would just pay more to stay somewhere else.

The water flow in the bathroom sink was barely enough to wash your hands, and took a while to fill up for a cup of water. The manager was very polite and came over the next day to fix it, but it wasn’t better. The shower and toilet pressure were fine, but the sink was not working properly and not worth $160/night!! Very annoying. Bed was comfortable and the TV a nice one.

This was a good location as far as access to the highway, Del Monte shopping center and downtown, but there was loud traffic noise. Plenty of parking, Keurig coffee maker, small refrigerator w/freezer, microwave and a/c or heater in the room. Large tv with lots of channels. Nice king bed. This is an old hotel which shows its age. We checked out a day early and was given a refund for that night which we had prepaid...I was impressed with that.

An economical property that provides everything you need, along with a clean and quiet environment. The gentleman at the front desk was very friendly and gave me some great suggestions for the area. There is a high-end shopping center across the street that has lots of dining options and a Starbucks. If you are just looking for a simple, comfortable room without spending a lot, I would recommend this place.
