The property was remodeled nicely but the only down side is that they charge $40 per 24hrs for parking which is absurd. For this reason i wouldn't stay in this hotel beacause thats to much for parking-in my opinion.

The oceanfront view rooms have a fantastic view. The front desk and cleaning services were very disappointing. It took us an extra three hours before our room was ready beyond the scheduled check in time. The front desk kept saying 30 minutes and we will let you know, even though we were in the lobby, they never came once to give us any updates we had to chase down our information. I do want to say that they did eventually give us some room credits for food and waived our parking fee, but waiting an extra 2 1/2 to 3 hours was a bit ridiculous. The rooms were very dark and small but they were clean their purpose and the view right outside the door of your room was fantastic , we had breakfast upstairs on the fourth floor nice nothing special about the food, but the view from there was still fantastic. Overall, I would say we were glad we stayed there, but it certainly started off with a very rocky start. On an odd sidenote, there was a dead sea lion just over the seawall in front of the hotel when we arrived and still there the next day. That is not the fault of the hotel of course but it did seem a bit odd or take away a little bit from the ambience, the view at night of the Monterey Bay Coast was breathtaking

this should be a lot nicer given the hype. No help checking in barely got directions to the room. Went to the bar sat at a table after 10 minutes watching others get service went to the bar rail to place order. We got drinks but after waiting what seemed like another 10 minutes asked about our appetizer. Still another 5. This is not a resort maybe a Holiday Inn.
