The property needs a face lift it’s very deteriorated. Especially the rooms look like it’s been a while since they got a deep cleaning. We did appreciate a sweet delivery from staff since it was our anniversary.

Overall the hotel was good. The USB outlets in our room were broken and the outlets next to the bed were loose which limited our charging capabilities. Room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Breakfast was ok, we skipped it the 2nd day due to limited options. The grounds were quiet and well kept and the location was convenient to drive anywhere in Monterey.
