The room was dated and in need of an upgrade. The chairs at the table were stained, I would suggest wood chairs. There was a musty odor upon entering the room. I would suggest that since they allow dogs to remove the carpet and put in laminate flooring. The positives were that the beds were comfortable and it was quiet.

New spot to add to our rotation, LOVED it

I took my daughter and her friend for a weekend in Monterey, Due to the weather we decided to stay somewhere other than our usual spot on the beach. I found this amazing place which we loved, and it was literally next to the monarch sanctuary. The only thing that wasn’t 5 stars was the bed, I have a bad back and it wasn’t very comfortable for me. We stayed in the 2 bedroom family suite and my daughter loved 1 bed not the other. The staff could not be more helpful, kind and accommodating. I forgot a charger and the front desk gentleman got one from his car for me to borrow for the evening. Another gentleman outside directed me to my room, offered to help with anything I needed and was very pleasant to speak with. The checkout last on duty was extremely kind as well. There were deer roaming in the grass in front of our room that my dog wanted to play with, they allowed my 75 lb dog to stay for free. That’s almost unheard of. Love this place and will recommend to everyone!

Most recent visit.

Love staying at this hotel. Been coming here for years. This time we stayed in the oldest section. The 3 areas are all good, but this being the oldest isn't quite as nice. Don't get me wrong, it is still quite comfortable. The rooms are always clear and well-appointed. Staff is always friendly and attentive to issues. Will definitely be back.
