Liked: Staff & service
Staff was nice with easy check in and check out. Parking is convenient too, and not too far from Monterey or Carmel (15 min drive either option). The hotel room itself though was a bit dirty, mainly the bathroom area. For example, the faucet had some small mold on the side, the toilet paper holder area had some mold, and the shower gel, shampoo, bottles were rusty and dirty. The bed, desk, fridge were fine. The heater also worked which was a great plus. Overall, this was a cheap convenient stay so if you are on a budget, just know what to expect.

It's your typical motel, a little bit more pricey than what I'd expect as there are many other properties that are similar. I could hear road noise nearby.

I didn't expect it is going to be a good hotel because the hotel price was affordable. But the hotel room size, bed size ,refrigerator, microwave.. all were good enough for our family. outside was freezing cold but the hotel room was warm and cozy. I was able to have a good sleep.

My mother is 83 years old and we reserved a room for her via Expedia. We had a confirmation number from the hotel, yet when we arrived they said they didn't have a reservation for us and they were full, no rooms available. The redirected us to a sister location a couple of blocks away. It was a little more run down than the original hotel we chose. They had a room available, but it was a smoking room (it reeked) and my mother has lung issues. We were given another room upon asking, but it was upstairs, no elevator and was difficult to get to when you have trouble with stairs due to being 83 years old with lung problems. The room wasn't bad, but the issues with check-in were troublesome.
