• Gas fireplace kept room cosy and warm.
• Broken rain gutters outside room.

“The hotel was really a motel, access to rooms from a parking facility. Room was a little small and the floor was noisy when you walked on it. The room we had was right by a stairway, but seemed OK. The rain gutter was leaking, caused a lot of noise when it rained. Gas fireplace and well sealed door kept room nice and cozy warm.”

• Room with 2 beds was very spacious, kids loved the pool.
• Breakfast was not that great.

“Location was good and easy to find. Too far to walk to downtown but easy to drive. Room and beds comfortable. Pool was nice as it was warm and spa was very warm with great jets.”

• The location, the size of the room, the fire place it was a great room for the money.

“It was a great place for family or lovers. We would definitely stay there again. The fact that all the rooms are non-pet and non-smoking.”

• The room was clean and comfortable, breakfast was good, spa and pool were nice and price was very economical.
• The bathroom door was very difficult to close.

“My friend and I enjoyed our stay very much. We enjoyed the continental breakfast in the morning (bagels, muffins, toast, cereals, waffles, fruit, and juice, milk, and coffee) and the spa and pool in the evening. The room was clean and comfortable (the bed was very comfortable) and the staff was very nice and helpful.”

• Overpriced Motel.
• Overpriced.

“"Trying" would be the best description of this hotel. The breakfast was tacky with no coffee cups in sight, cold breakfast, and seating that could only accommodate a third of the people wanting to eat. The room was out of a nightmare. The carpet seemed dirty and the bathroom was as small as the closet. Even if the room was clean it certainly didn't feel like it. I do not recommend staying here.”

• Good location within 4 miles of tourist attractions, food and supplies.
• The room was not worth the price.

“Located in a good location to tourist attractions. Room was small and average, and in my opinion it was not worth the price. Staff was friendly, however, if you are considering the free breakfast, don't bother. Skip the stale cereal and muffins and have a real breakfast a mile down the road.”

• The staff went out of their way to accommodate us.
• One girl working in the office was incompetent.

“One girl working in the office was incompetent. She couldn't give us directions to the hotel, promised us a crib, then didn't deliver. Not only didn't deliver, but just left us hanging and went home. We called the front desk at 11 pm to inquire about the crib and the manager answered. He apologized for what had happened, and arranged to move us to a suite to compensate us for the missing crib. This exceeded my expectations. I would recommend this hotel to anyone because of that.”

• It was clean and the beds were very good. I have a bad back and the bed really matters.
• Pool had too many chemicals and burned our skin a bit and smelled. Also the pool and the pool area could really use a good cleaning.

“Over all great. A great value and I will always stay there when traveling to Monterey.”

• Everything was awful.
• Help gave us attitude. Lamp by bed was broken. TV & stand were right in front of fireplace.

“The room we were given had no hot tub. They gave us an upgraded room with a kitchen. Like I am going to ask my wife to cook on our anniversary. The girl at the desk acted like she could care less.”

• The room was very spacious.
• The breakfast room was cramped and the pool too salty.

“This hotel was a surprisingly nice stay. I was not expecting too much given the rating, but was pleasantly surprised by the nicely sized room. The complimentary breakfast was somewhat disappointing, as the selection was small and the room cramped. My kids loved the pool, but discovered it was too salty and had problems with their eyes hurting and weepy for hours after they got out. Knowing that, I'd bring goggles and limit their pool time. I would definitely stay here again.”

• Clean and well appointed & updated for the price.
• No wifi.

“This property is located along with a stretch of hotels lining don Dahvee Park right across the street. It's one of the closest to the Downtown area, convenient to the Warf and Alvarado St. (old town). It appears to be a 60s era hotel built in a semi horseshoe shape surrounding its own parking lot. Obviously maintained very well with a lot of time devoted to maintaining a variety of flower boxes & gardens that line the walkways and steps. The heated pool and Jacuzzi area is cleaned and maintained even in December. While on vacation we don't get up very early and never saw the breakfast area open, so really can't comment there. Our room was small (which is what I paid for) but very nicely updated with cultured marble and new fixtures, wallpaper, carpet, bed and come to think of it. About everything includes the fridge, nuke and coffee maker. They're in the process of renovating rooms; one or two rooms at a time, so ensure you get an upgraded room not too close to one they're working on now. Eventually of course this won't be an issue.”

• Fireplace, indoor pool.
• Breakfast.

“Far exceeded our expectations, unfortunately there were no smoking rooms however that is understandable, the continental breakfast was far below my expectations the indoor pool and spa was quite nice. The hotel property was extremely clean and most of the staff was polite.”

• The room was clean and comfortable.
• We like to have a fan for "white noise" while we sleep. The unit didn't allow that.

“I was satisfied with our experience and would stay here again and recommend it to friends.”
