We enjoyed our stay, if you stay near the pool it can be loud if you’re sensitive to that kind of thing. The pool closes at 9 but people were still there pretty loud until 9:45. Otherwise it was a nice place with very friendly staff.

We liked our room and it's cleanliness. The staff was attentive. Unfortunately, one of the mattresses in our room was very uncomfortable. We had to sleep on the opposite side of the bed in order to get some sleep.

Convenient location

Quiet neighborhood, parking was close to the door. Had an elevator, which many other hotels nearby did not. Hot tub and sauna felt good after walking all day. Near the lighthouse, aquarium and restaurants. Fresh squeezed orange juice and continental breakfast of muffins, bagels, boiled eggs, instant oatmeal, etc. Refrigerator and microwave in room.

Peggy

Disliked: Amenities
Rude front desk: here, sign this. What am I signing? Read it! Rez was 2 people/4 days. One bath towel was all we had! Unacceptable! Continental breakfast was a sugar/carbo explosion 💥 Yogurt was all flavored (sugar)Oatmeal was flavored (sugar). Baked products were all white flour! Where’s the Greek yogurt or whole wheat/whole grain bread? The only protein was cold/super dry hard boiled eggs. Inedible! The room and bedding reeked of soot from the ancient fireplace. Our hair and clothes began smelling like we had been at a campfire. Unhealthy and uninhabitable The TV offered no option to download an app. The channels were limited and the picture was fuzzy- Unwatchable! The Wi-Fi only offered 1 bar of service. Could not make a phone call from our room! We left a day early. Waste of time/Waste of money! How does this qualify as a recommended 8.2 property? No way!

Family stay

We stayed here for a nights. The only issue we had was the mattress springs seemed to have had it. We did sleep but the bed wasn't that great. Staff very helpful and polite.

Property near the ocean and handy to downtown Monterey. Probably very nice at one time, but needs updating. Plenty of parking. Needs more outlets for charging, electronics, etc. "Continental Breakfast" was much nicer than we expected including eggs, fresh fruit, delicious pastries.
