Monarch Valley Inn Marina at Monterey Bay

The breakfast is a brown bag with an orange and a mini yogurt. The hotel is really rooms attached to a gas station, there’s no lobby. You check in inside the gas station. The toilet paper holder was a public bathroom locked holder. Very loud because of the gas station over night.

Parking was safe but microwave broke and was never offered replacement. There were construction workers drinking there every night till 11ish so was not quiet.

Took awhile for staff to check us in. The room was spacious with a tiny tv. I wouldn’t recommend if you’re looking for quiet because we ended up in room 113 and it was right next to the room they used for housekeeping. Housekeepers were loud and blasting music. During the night, the lights from the gas station shines through the edges of the curtains. You can hear everything through the walls. You get what you pay for. It was convenient to get to Monterey and neighboring cities. Plenty of parking. They also lock the toilet paper so if you run out you’ll have to place the toilet paper elsewhere. Housekeeping only came during check out day about an hour ish before checkout. So don’t expect daily housekeeping. You can hear their carts going back and forth though.

Don't believe what Hotels.com says about the breakfast. It was a "Grab and Go" bag with a couple pieces of fruit, some yogurt, and oat bar and a cookie. Definitely not as advertised. The microwave in the room did not work. The staff did not clean the room or provide clean towels. The check in was at the back of a gas station mart. A real dump. I will not stay here again and I do not recommend it.

No pool
