Good

The Staff was fine. The room was dirty. Not as pictured. Everything in the room was sticky. The mini fridge was broken, no freezer and weird liquid dripping down the back of it on the inside of the fridge. Microwave didn't rotate. Beds are hard! The wall are SOOOO thin. I could hear my neighbors perfectly and the upstairs guest sounded like they were moving furniture all night.
Disliked:
the wood blinds - hard to close and needed to be tightened so light coming in/privacy was an issue; no plug for tub so child could not take a bath; water either super hot or lukewarm due to faucet handle - also needed to be tightened or repaired; floor and TV remote filthy; could hear neighbors TV so difficult to get a good nights rest
Liked:
bedside spot light for reading and bathroom mirror was a nice modern touch; continental breakfast decent but had to ask about it.
The hotel definitely made our trip more enjoyable, checking in was very easy & the reception was very friendly, loved the restaurant options across the street, loved that it wasn’t a hectic busy area, the rooms were very spacious & comfortable made us feel at home, this was our 3rd trip to Monterey but 1st one at this hotel & we all agreed definitely staying at this hotel for all future trips to Monterey.
We liked our 1 night stay here. Room and bedding was good. Breakfast was having limited option however it was okay. Worth the price we paid for the stay.
The room was recently remodel, nice work. They need black out curtains in the room, due to the excessive lighting in the parking lot and surrounding businesses.
Continental breakfast is very basic, which I expected for this establishment. Management needs to keep basic items like butter for your toast or waffles, plus the beverage dispenser for orange juice ran out of orange juice and dispensed water. One of the of the flavors was also out. I attempted to inform the manager, since I saw him earlier during breakfast. He wouldn't answer the door, I knocked on the door several times.
Continental breakfast did not offer butter or jam. Staff attitude a real turn off.

Would not recommend
No complaints about the room, but overall stay experience wasn't great. We stayed for a right as we were visiting Monterey. We asked at the check-in if he can recommend any restaurants, and he said he doesn't know of any. The breakfast setup (including food options) was horrible. Everything packed in a 10'x10' room. We had to eat outside.
Room was nice and clean. However, terrible breakfast…broken coffee machine for my 2 day stay, miniature breakfast room with room for no more than 6 people because this is a motel advertised as a hotel and therefore breakfast room is in reception area which is small. Fridge did not work in other room we had. Breakfast eating would be at best a two. Lousy reception staff. This is not a Best Western quality at all!
