Great location if you want to be able to walk to downtown or the nearby plaza with ease and safety. Also a quick drive to Cannery Row and Carmel. Clean, quiet, and easy check in/out. You may have a slightly more difficult time parking if you drive a larger vehicle, but that's true most places. Highly recommend!

We spent two nights at this location. The staff was pleasant and helpful. We down graded for location and parking. The parking was limited and very tight. The location is across from a mall off a one way street requiring a u-turn to turn into the hotel. Our stay was very pleasant.

Good location with excellent shopping centre across the road. 5mins drive to Old Fisherman's warf and slightly longer to Canary Row. Accommodation adequate for our 2 night stay. Room was not made up between nights which some may not like. Reception staff friendly and very accommodating at supplying additional cups and coffee when asked.

Clean beds and bathroom. Floor was filthy tho. My son’s feet were black, my feet were black and my wife’s socks were black. Other than that the room was nice and the hotel price was nice. I was in room 209. Another bummer is the parking spots in the lot are extremely small designed only for compact cars. I witnessed two people opening their doors and hitting other cars. It’s a park at your own risk type lot.

Booked this hotel the 2 bed room for a family of 4. We were in town visiting my sister in the military. Was perfectly located and close to the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey. The Aquarium, fisherman’s ward and beach are was very close by about 10minute drive. Conveniently located. Only downfall was the room seemed like it was halfway cleaned. The tub and showerhead looked like it needed to be cleaned better. The floor is hardwood laminate and it was clearly not mopped properly bcuz my kids socks were dirty after just walking around for an hour or so in the room. But other than that good size room beds were comfortable and clean.
Nice comfy bed and pillows.
Average TV with fridge, microwave and safe.
Separate vanity area outside of the bathroom area.
Nice looks newly renovated but poor design the tub was extremely low.

Great price with kind and helpful staff

Check in was quick and easy. The staff was very friendly and even went of their way to help me print some documents that I needed. The room looks recently updated and was very clean. It was priced well for what you get. The parking was a little tight but other than I was pleased with my stay.
