    We appreciated their accommodation of our late arrival, providing us with a key easily accessible despite the rainstorm. Exploring this new location was a delightful experience, as it felt like being in a welcoming community. The rooms and the rustic ambiance of the place, coupled with the sound of the river echoing through the darkness of the night, created a unique atmosphere. Sitting outside on our two lounge chairs by our room, listening to the river and the rain while the wind intermittently made the tree branches sway, was truly enjoyable. This secluded spot is perfect for peaceful getaways and special occasions, offering a cozy and intimate setting.

    Location is excellent, close to the beach and Fisherman's Wharf. The hotel has clearly made an effort to update and new paint, carpets etc have clearly improved the experience. Lovely little balcony and some nice open seated common areas. Didn't need to use the air conditioning as the supplementary fireplace was exceptional in maintaining a perfect temperature. Check in and out were very quick with online options available.

    Excellent stay in this hotel. The room totally exceeded my expectations. Room is spacious, nice and welcoming. The bed is very comfy and we had a good night sleep. the area is very quiet. Hotel is right next to a restaurant but the restaurant closes at 7pm and opens on Fridays to Sundays. From the hotel, we walked to the beach which is about 10-15 mins away. We can see the sunset there.

    I like that the room is big and clean, but they should have 2 trash cans in the room instead of 1. We stayed there for 3 nights. We didn’t ask for cleaning service the next day, but on the 2nd day we left in the morning came back in the room around 3 pm expecting that our room would be cleaned and ready, but we were disappointed that it hasn’t been cleaned yet. Good thing the cleaner was next door cleaning that room. We just asked for some fresh towels and to empty the trash can. They have reasonable price.

    Marina is a beautiful little town just north of Monterey. With CSUMB right there, there are a number of stores and restaurants typical of a college town. Monterey is just a short drive away but Marina is quiet without the hustle and crowds. Daddy's City Diner is a great place to start your day with a hearty breakfast! Stop by Baker's Bacon for some fresh, tasty bacon, sausage and cheese. Take some candied bacon with you for a wonderful snack.

    Everything you need for a Roadside Hotel. Outside and property was well maintained, clean and landscaped. Room was well appointed and for the most part really clean. I very much appreciate a laminate floor vs. carpet that you know is never clean. Had a a nice sized refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, ice machine. Area has grocery stores and restaurants in the area that you can walk to. (Just avoid the Mexican place across the street, unless you want some stomach upset! Trust me you'll thank me!) Again, was everything you needed and will book again for my Concours stay next year! Thank you!

    Don't miss Big Sur! A truly beautiful spot. A highlight for us was the hike around Lobos Point where the wildlife is abundant and the scenery breathtaking. Eating out was pricey but we stayed at Big Sur campground and cabins where we able to cater for ourselves. During April the roads were reasonably quiet, making the drive along the coast super easy.

    Carmel Valley is a little gem.

    Carmel Valley is a little gem. Most people visiting Northern CA only get as far as Napa or Santa Cruz but they're really missing out. The wineries and restaurants in Carmel Valley rival Napa. Point Lobos on the way to Big Sur is a spectacular park hugging the cliffs. Nepenthe in Big Sur is not only historic but has a fantastic view of the coast. And of course there is Esalen in Big Sur. Make the effort and visit.

    So much wildlife, we loved it.

    So much wildlife, we loved it. The sea lions were hilarious, all piled on docks at the harbor, and it seemed like a real working town, not a fake touristy spot. And do visit the Shakespeare Society of America in Moss Landing. What a hoot! Can't really explain it but see for yourself. We ate at Sea Harvest and the Thai restaurant near the inn, both adequate and inexpensive. I was stoked to visit Pezzini Farms and I will be ordering heritage artichokes from them this spring. Whale Watch Point right across from the harbor was fun just to chill and stare at the sea lions and so many pelicans.
