The pool was very clean. It was heated, but it was still a bit chilly once the sun went down. Breakfast was pretty limited (bagels, toast, cereal). We went at a variety of times, but there wasn’t any fresh fruit. Room was big, and fireplace was nice. We had to share a balcony so we couldn’t leave our slider open for fresh air. Overall not super fancy but worked for our stay.

Other than that, we will definitely book this hotel again when we go visit Carmel/Monterey.

The hotel was in a convenient spot being close to the freeway, a shopping center, and a few miles away from Cannery Row. The room is self could use A LOT of upgrades. The sink was so rusty and moldy looking. The doorway for the bathroom was stained with God knows what, pretty yucky. Let’s not forget the “continental breakfast” that was provided. I’m sorry but a sit down breakfast that was not it. It was pretty sad to be honest. Ice machine was only on the second floor which is not fair to be honest.
One last pro, the hotel is right next to a busy street, but the room was surprisingly soundproof.
Would we stay there again, plain and simple, no!

Love the size of our suite and with a few cleaning issues resolved and newer beds we would gladly stay here again and again.

There were no warm food options such as eggs or protein. No waffle maker. Only things to choose from were breads or baked goods (that were not fresh) and cereals.

Rude front desk kid. Pictures online are 10 X better than the room in person. Granted the room was clean all the furnishings like the sink and shower curtain rods were rusted. The room was big but come on rusted sinks and shower rods. It's gross. My room was on the first floor so I could hear everything and this place is on the corner of a very busy intersection so it's loud and was hard to sleep. Last thing was I how strong of chemicals the room smelled. I almost left as I have asthma and it was making hard to stay in the room. I would never stay here again.

Elevator stopped working on our second day and walking up and down stairs with kids and 6 months pregnant wasn't the best part of our staying either.
Pool are was closed for the entire time we were there eventhough they told us it would be operational in ~3 hrs.
Breakfast provided was as basic as it gets.
Parking lot, surrounding area, and eating area were very clean. Staff 2/3 we encountered at the front desk were very friendly.

When we first walked in, there was what seemed to be a manager and a subordinate arguing in front of myself and another guest. The first two sets of room keys didn’t work but a maintenance worker said that their system was acting up, so that was understandable. The A/C didn’t work very well, but the heater worked great. The jets in the jacuzzi tub did not work. The tv would not work, and when the front desk was called all we were told was, “Unplug it and plug it back in, that’s what works for me” instead of offering to send somebody up to help. The stay itself was not terrible and was in a great part of town, but I am only willing to give this place one last chance.

We went on a roadtrip and this was the first hotel we stayed at. Every hotel on our trip did not even come close to this place. The location is fantastic, right across from shopping and conveniently located near the start of the 17 Mile Drive. The room that we had was pet-friendly and large - it was a 2 story with a murphy bed and sofa on the bottom floor and a king size on the second floor with 2 bathrooms. We were very comfortable, especially our pup. I'd return here if I ever came back to the area.

I was looking forward to swimming in the heated pool however the pool was not warm enough to swim in wanted to utilize the nice fire outside but when I called the front desk, Madison said I needed my own matches because the maintenance guy had left 10 minutes ago I asked her if she had matches she said no we would have to light ourselves. I do not carry matches and I just thought that this was horrible because we could not experience the beautiful Gas fires that were outdoors. Continental breakfast was OK but it said that it provided breakfast not continental so it would’ve been nice to have some scrambled eggs something more substantial the service people that clean the rooms. They were busy washing clothes, washing towels props to them. They knocked on our door asked if we needed service, but Madison needs some retraining had to be more customer service oriented.

I also found left over drinks from whoever stayed last in the room inside the fridge which makes me wonder if the place was thoroughly cleaned.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and unfortunately, it was far from the experience I expected based on the photos and descriptions online. While the room was decent in size, cleanliness was a major issue. The floors were dirty, with food remnants behind the couch and under the furniture, clearly indicating they hadn’t been swept properly. To make matters worse, I found dead bugs on the bathroom wall and under the sink, which was incredibly off-putting. It’s hard to take seriously a hotel that advertises itself as “sophisticated” and “upscale” when the reality is so far from that.
The room had additional problems too. The closet didn’t even have a door, leaving the space feeling unfinished. It seemed like this property had been a rundown motel at some point and then half-heartedly renovated. The water smelled like sewer when showering, which was a huge issue. The TVs were small, outdated, and lacked smart features, and the limited channels offered didn’t help. Wi-Fi didn’t work at all, which was a huge inconvenience.
On top of all that, there were no curtains, just broken shutters that didn’t block light or offer privacy. The walls were paper-thin, and I could hear everything from the people above me until 3 a.m. The service at the front desk was equally disappointing—rude, uninterested staff made the experience even worse.
Overall, this hotel didn’t meet my expectations in any way. There are far better, genuinely upscale hotels at the same price or even less. I cannot recomme

I am disappointed in the room cleanliness. The bedside table had potato chips in it from a previous person. The stairs were filthy.

One sink in the bathroom had to run for ten minutes to get hot. There was no lotion in the dispenser and the shampoo had been watered down to almost complete water.

The ceiling fan was squeaking so loudly I couldn't sleep with it on.

The door to our floor had been taped so the security key was.pointless. When we arrived at our door it was not even closed.

The Murphy bed had stains on it.

We stayed at Nicely remodeled hotel room with jetted tub. Clean, warm, neat, quiet..... until heater/ac starts working. It's a tractor in the room that turns on and off as soon as you fall asleep. I wish I wouldn't turn it on. Oh well... I did at 4 am so I can sleep in comfortable hotel bed. The other thing that was kind of interesting ... to turn the shower on you hav to use man power... it was a challenge to pull the handle. It's probably easy fix for handy man but not for us as we only stayed a night. Oh well we liked the stay. We love Monterey. We will come back. ...... even if the tractor still there. :).
