I stayed here during Monterey Car week so it was crazy expensive BUT it was a great. The room was very generously sized and well equipped. I liked the fact that the windows were large so I could either turn the AC on or enjoy the breeze. The beds were very nice and firm and the room was surprisingly quiet. The staff was extremely welcoming as well. The walkways and the stairs could use some refreshing and the towels were quite skimpy. The two remotes for the TV was very confusing, but Wi-Fi was speedy. Overall, I would stay here again, which says a lot!

This motel was on main road directly across from Del Monte Shopping center. It conveniently located minutes away from the aquarium, Cannery Road, beaches, and the wharf. Check in staff/manager was friendly. Downside is that the room was so DIRTY and full of MOLD. The shower curtain was covered in mold, corners of the room had mold, the floor had hard water stains like it cant completely dry which causes a foul odor. The headboard had head and hand prints. We walked around in white socks and it was black within minutes. The blinds were also broken and the door had gaps with janky locks. Definitely a health and safety hazard all around. Save yourself and your family and stay somewhere else.

Our stay was a mix of pros and cons. The bathroom was clean, but the beddings didn’t smell freshly laundered. The Keurig worked at first but stopped after two uses. The TV wasn’t working, but that was on us for not reporting it right away—it only got fixed the morning we checked out. On the plus side, the front desk staff was very helpful and accommodating, even sharing great tips for breakfast and dinner spots. Overall, still worth coming back to on our next visit to the area.

I like that the room is updated and there’s a very nice shopping mall across the street. However, the water in the shower at this place reeks badly, almost like it’s untreated outdoor water flowing in from the ocean. Disgusting. Never encountered this issue in over 40 years of traveling. Dan The Man at the front is very nice. But there’s really no compensating for a serious flaw like the shower water grossness.
