Very clean and close to town. The room has the sink, toilet, and shower all in the bathroom. This made it very hard for 4 of us to get ready in the morning. In the evening i wanted to make a hot cocoa but I couldnt get to the sink because my son was showering. You dont realize how important it is to have the sink and bathroom counter accesible and how much it will slow you down in the morning. Would probably not be so bad for just a couple or a family woth small kids, but it was a huge time suck for a family of 4 with mature children that need privacy.

Great location and solid stay overall, but with a few key things to know. The hotel is steps from the walking/biking trail, beach, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Cannery Row, and tons of restaurants and shops. We felt safe walking around at night—even our 21-year-old son walking alone. Free parking is a plus, and the complimentary breakfast was a great way to start the day and save a little money. Juan, the manager, was absolutely wonderful—kind, helpful, and responsive. He really made a difference in our stay. However, be very cautious if you're driving a vehicle with any added height. The parking garage has a very low clearance (6'6"), and the warning sign blends into the building and is hard to read. Although the sign says "No pickups, vans, or campers," our SUV with a Yakima rack hit overhead pipes, causing damage. We got stuck and had to back out—causing even more damage. When we told the front desk, they were dismissive and unapologetic, which was frustrating. Thankfully, Juan later handled the situation with professionalism and kindness. Also worth noting: rooms don’t have blackout curtains, so expect to wake up when the sun rises. If location and walkability are your priorities, this place delivers. Just double-check your vehicle height before pulling into the garage!

Lack of hospitality, Noisy, Smelly

I would highly recommend staying elsewhere. 1.The front desk employees were unprofessional. The employee who checked us in, "Deanna", was shockingly rude to us and we witnessed her interaction with another family at check-in as well. It was shocking and hard to watch. I'm not sure she gave me her true name because none of the front desk employees wear name tags. When I stopped later to ask a question of another front desk employee, it seemed I was inconveniencing her, as she was busy on her personal phone. 2. This hotel was very noisy. There was a lot of street noise as well as from the courtyard and other rooms. We had a sound machine and earplugs and still did not sleep well. 3. We were thankful to be in a room that had been renovated, but despite its appearance and new furnishings, it smelled very musty.

The hotel was nice and clean and great location. But the breakfast was not the greatest and the pancake machine was broken. Also this hotel is loud. Parents need to not let kids run around and scream in the mornings but the walls are just thin because you hear everything! Even people rolling luggage

Unique Holiday Inn Express, we choose this hotel because we only had one night and wanted to be able to walk to everything. Allowed us to see the sights with little time. Room was clean, breakfast ok.

This is a great hotel for a family trip to Monterey! You are right off the walking/biking trail, easy access to cannery row and the aquarium and 1 block to the beach and park. Rooms were updated and spacious. Beds were comfortable! And breakfast was lovely. We will come back next time we go to the aquarium.
