During our recent trip to Monterey, we were so impressed by this place that we couldn't resist staying here again on our way back. Our room featured a delightful fireplace that cast a warm and inviting glow, creating the perfect cozy atmosphere. The cleanliness and thoughtful arrangement of amenities in the room truly stood out. The beds were a haven of comfort, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The overall ambiance of the room was tastefully understated, free from any excessive showiness. Whether we wanted to enjoy the coastal beauty or delve into local attractions, everything was within a comfortable reach. From start to finish, our stay here was an absolute pleasure. We left feeling refreshed, grateful for the wonderful memories made during our time in Monterey. P.S. Try Alvarado Brewery and their chicken wings.

Excellent staff, with great tips about Monterey, its bay, aquarium, the 17-mile drive and more. Although we had a good idea of what we wanted to do, front-desk staff gave us those essential pointers that locals would know about. The room was very comfortable, with parking directly in front. Supremely clean, with a generous bed, bathroom and a gigantic TV on the wall. Very well located, right by Monterey.

This place is one of the most affordable in the area, is in a great location, and has everything you need. Staff was very helpful with borrowing extra towels and getting cutlery for meals. We expected the place to be way worse based on what we paid, but ended up being pleasantly surprised. Also we got upgraded to a larger bed at check-in; likely because it was the off season.
