Nice property. Very clean and felt very safe. Not really walking distance from much but a very short drive into town, about 7 minutes so not bad at all. There’s no pool or continental breakfast or anything but it’s a nice place to rest after a long day of seeing the sights.

The property was really cute. I love the fountains. The blankets were very minimal, making the bed feel less than amazing. But it was very clean. Parking was a little rough, when trying to leave and several cars were parked illegally and blocking cars in.

Beautiful room, parking outside the door, this re-modeled old school motel was a treat. Nice bed and great shower! The only thing missing for us, it would have been nice to have real coffee in the lobby, since we had to leave the premises for some to get the day started. A nice area to find on our stop going thru the area at the end of our vacation week.

I don't often write reviews, but this property was an outstanding value. My room looked like it was updated last week! Extremely clean, simple furniture but in excellent condition. Newer style bath and comfortable bed (not as firm as my bed at home but I slept very well). Not a place to lounge around the grounds, sip wine and watch the sunset, but if you are in Monterey to see the sights, then this place is perfect for 1,2 or 3 nights. Fantastic value!
