I enjoyed my stay, the staffs are very helpful.The location is excellent—it's just a short walk from Marina State Beach and only a short drive to Monterey, making it very convenient for exploring the area. The hotel was comfortable, and the staff was friendly. My only drawback was the price, which was higher than my budget. Overall, it was a pleasant stay, especially if location is your priority.
