Heather
Ok place. People smoked a lot outside and they should be aloud to smoke so close to the rooms.
Jim
Clean and convenient. Staffwas helpful and the property is well maintained. Comfortable atmosphere.
Marlen
Hotel is in a great location with easy access to everything around Monterey for a great price. The room was spacious and everything very comfortable. Unfortunately we were on the first floor and the people above us got up at 6am. The footsteps really carry.
The pool looked nice but the outside temps were in the upper 60s and the pool was maybe in the lower 70s so that was too cold for us.
Free espresso drinks in the lobby was a nice bonus.
We tried to do laundry but there is one washer and drier for the entire hotel... And it was always in use.
Overall a good stay.

We loved staying here. The room was really clean. Being able to park your car right by the door was really a big benefit for me.
Clarisse
Highly recommended for affordable and convenient stay in Monterey with every necessities provided.
Daniella
Amazing stay, clean rooms, my kids loved the pool. The only thing is be aware airplanes flying in and out at random times. Woke us at 5 am sounded like an earthquake. Lol !
laurie
This is a quick and easy place for us to stay when visiting family in Monterey. Centrally located to tourist attractions & restaurants.

Love clean room with great staff
Richard
All the usual kudos for this lodging and its employees. The room was very clean, spacious, and quiet. The heater/air conditioner was very effective and not too noisy. Small but surprisingly spacious refrigerator. Definitely recommend. Especially if you are on a budget, it is a cut above the usual.
Sahil

Victoria

Shelia
The air freshener used was overwhelming. For those of us with smell sensitivity, it made the stay difficult. Everything else was top notch.
KARA
It was not fancy but nicely remodeled to a modern standard, very clean, staff were efficient and polite, check-in was easy, room was nice enough and clean and parking was easy.
Rise
The property was very nice. The housekeeping staff was amazing. The laundry facilities were poor and the “heated” pool was too chilly. Overall, a very nice place to stay.
Sherilynne
Exceptionally clean, updated rooms. No frills. Check-in was swift and simple. Was within close range of cannery row and the aquarium. Didn't get to use the pool but it looked well kept. The only thing I'll say that bothered me was the lights next to the window staying on all night and shinning through the slats (no curtains) making it seem like the sun was up because of how bright it stayed in the room. We would probably stay here again though.
scott
Clean room quiet. Did the job.
Bradley
Very clean, pool was great. Will definitely book again.

Long narrow stairs for upstairs rooms. Difficult to carry luggage.
No breakfast and could not access coffee in the lobby cause the door was locked
Maybe opens after 7am not sure.

ALEXEY
A basic motel with an overly complicated booking process. It requests far too much personal information for what should be a simple reservation.
Graciela

This is our second time we were here at the same time last year. Nice clean Everything you could want room.
Shari

Great little hotel in a convenient location! Beds were very comfortable, I appreciated having a Keurig coffee machine and a smart TV to stream Netflix in the room. I would definitely stay here again.

Parking if you come after 5 you may park away from your room. Parking is not assigned by room number. If you’re coming in late you will have to navigate through the property to find a spot for parking.
No rooms request honoring ahead of time.

The room was tiny but clean. The bed was soft and the pillows were overly large. The area was a bit noisy with the airport so close. There was a very nice pool.

Great Value & location as we had a stop over on the Pacific hwy. Some aircraft noise occasionally.
Garth

Vanda
Very good place to stay, check-in person was friendly and happy to be there.
They were resurfacing the parking lot, so looking good. Got our quiet room and the room is clean and spotless. Keep it up! Will come back if in the area again.

Rostyslav
The hotel was clean, and the staff were very nice and friendly. The only downside was that it’s located near the airport, so it can be a bit noisy at times.
Barbara
I thought the room was nice-clean, and provided the amenities I needed. I didn’t like the check in procedures-felt they were too invasive.
Krystal
Great location and lovely staff, but it was extremely expensive for the type of place it was. My family and I stayed in the middle of the week as well.
The parking lot was being worked on so that posed an issue with us being able to have our vehicle in the second half of the motel where our room was.
The digital door lock system they have instead of keys malfunctioned multiple times and the shower would not drain properly. There is also a very large random dip in the concrete at the bottom of the stairs which is a major safety concern. We will most likely not stay here again.

Loved our one night stay! Very clean and and helpful and kind staff! Older but updated with nice touches to the room (fanned folded toilet paper and tissue)! Haha as well as nice toiletries! Even a microwave in the room and laundry available on site! We both said we will definitely stay again!)
PAMELA
Room set up great, big refrigerator with freezer, big closet, drawers, beds comfortable, wide open area.
Jenae
Room key needed to be reset a few times. I think the battery in the auto-lock was needing changed. Otherwise will book again soon.
Liam
Five out of Five stars for both room and service.
Tammy
Room was good size, and clean. Dead zone for cell phones tho. Heated pool was not heated, that was the main reason for staying there for the kids to swim but didn’t even use it, too cold. Good location, easy to get everywhere
Michael
We stayed 4 nights. The room is very small but clean and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable. There is some airport noise, but only during the day and we didn't find it a problem. The staff was very helpful. It is in a very convenient location and the price was excellent for a stay in Monterey Peninsula. We liked being able to drive right up to the room. Nice flowers throughout the property.
Roberto
Clean, quiet, very nice staff
Cameron
The manager, Mitesh, was amazing! The motel/rooms were extremely clean and well-maintained. Beds were comfortable and bedding was super soft. There is one washer and dryer on site as well and an awesome espresso/latte/cafe americano/coffee machine at the front desk.
Would not hesitate to stay here again, simply superb!

Great golf stay, just used to sleep at, all fine!
Elvira
We always travel as a family of 6 and it is extremely important for us to be able to book a room to accommodate all of us. The heated pool is a plus and we always use it.
Heather
The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The grounds are well kept and parking was close to our room. It was also very quiet! It was everything we needed for one night of our road trip!
Clarisse
Very Clean, everything needed is provided, good location and smooth check-in/check-out. Will book again!
Edward
Great location. Close to everything we wanted to do.
Hope
Close to freeway and eateries. Room was clean. A few things would have made our stay better, shower head was extremely calcified and our bathroom door was very difficult to open and close. Also, the bath towels were meant for kids not adults.
Sandra
Shower water stopped several times during check out for family of 5. Front staff blamed volume of guests showering at the same time. Beds offered no comfort just a mattress on wooden dry board.
Positive: housekeeper was great and swapped out towels daily.

The room was clean, organized and had plenty of towels and all the usual amenities. We enjoyed the coffee.
The water pressure was very low, weak flow. The windows lacked black-out curtains. Balcony lights poured through the wooden louvered blinds. Refrigerator was too cold. It froze our water.

The room was clean, but it smelled like old sewer. It was so bad we had to buy a candle. The hotel is in the flight path of jets taking off. The floors are so thin, we could hear the people above us talking and using the bathroom. All 3 nights were sleepless. The pool is so cold we could not put our feet in it.

Been staying here yearly and the place is always exactly what we need.

Fun
Yiu
Clean. Friendly. Uses liquid body wash, not that prison bar soap. Best budget night stay.
Claire
This location gives very good value for the price. The room was clean and attractive. It had obviously been modernized. The host was very gracious. I only stayed one night, but my experience was very good. There is also a nice-looking covered pool that was being used when I was there. A nice amenity. I appreciated having the fridge, microwave, and coffee maker in the room.
Also, a courtyard motel, there were lovely roses by almost every door entering into a room. I loved that! And just two stairs to get to the door, which is always appreciated. I would stay there again.
