Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Checkin is at a kiosk, virtually meeting with someone in a different country. Walls and floors in room must have zero insulation as we coukd hear every conversation of the people in rooms next door and below. Mattress was extremely uncomfortable. There are no blackout curtains and very bright lights all down the hallways, illuminating the room all night long. It was like daylight throughout the night.

Very clean room. Bed was very comfortable and pillows even better. Rates were well below the norm and appreciated the bargain. Staff friendly, pool nice though colder than expected. . Location a little hard to find coming coming in from Hwy 68 and recommend people get detailed map before arrival.

An affordable Gem! The entire property was super clean, the room was spotless! We even had a jetted bathtub in our room, which I wasn’t expecting. The pool and hot tub were also very nice! The staff were courteous and friendly. It’s about a 20 minute walk to the wharf and it takes you through downtown Monterey. We had a great stay, thanks!

The check-in is excepted to be all electronic but i hasn't seen the email before arriving. We happened to catch someone at the counter who did assist us. The room was two separate bedrooms with one shared bath but the bathroom door configuration was very odd. It was convenient that both bedrooms had access but only one door locked from inside the bedroom so we had to work out a system to communicate when the bathroom was occupied.

Do not stay here! The staff is horrible. The property is unclean and they discriminate against disabled. I arranged to stay for my sister who is legally blind and my nephew at this hotel. When they had difficulty with the toilet in the bathroom, not flushing, they reported it to the front desk and waited more than an hour for a maintenance person that never came. When my 12-year-old nephew walked his mother to the front desk to try to get Assistance. They discovered a plunger had been left outside their room. He walked her to the front desk to request assistance since she was blind, and they told her she could plunge the toilet herself. Which she said she would not do because she could not see it and it was not her responsibility to manage their property. She then requested a maintenance person come to the room and she was told everyone was too busy turning over rooms for new guests to arrive. She asked repeatedly to speak to a manager or owner and was denied. She was told she had to call back on the main line and leave a message. They refused to assist her so she checked out of the property and I had to rebook her at another hotel at considerable expense. She called the front desk multiple times requesting a refund and they have never called her back. The rooms were not unmaintained, and the pool was filthy.
