Interestingly enough, since our stay was during off peak days (Mon-Tue nights) we were the only guests at the hotel. We had the whole place to ourselves. So that was really nice. One of the reasons we picked the Monterey Peninsula Inn was for it's location and the hot tub, which we enjoyed both nights. The room we had does show it's age, but it was comfortable enough. Probably the only gripe would be the insufficient packet of coffee for the coffee maker, which is the kind that makes a liquid that I wouldn't really define as coffee, pretty much I guess what you can expect from most hotel coffee, but I think it's time that hotels in general tried to provide something that's actually appetizing. So bring your own coffee and filter, which is something we will probably do from now on. They do have coffee in their lobby which is better. The staff was also very friendly. So we had a great stay.
