Perfectly fine but not outstanding. Noisy corner traffic wise but walkability to the wharf, Bay trail, downtown shops and restaurants is excellent. Room carpet a bit tired but decently outfitted. Small bathroom but fairly recently renovated. Ample free parking in underground garage.

My daughter and I had a great stay at the Stevenson while visit Monterey for the 1/2 marathon this past weekend. Check in was great, the room was nice and served our purpose and was within walking distance to the race. Thank you!

Lindsey

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
I arrived after reading the reviews and it was not at all what I expected. The older gentleman at the front desk was not accommodating or friendly at all. The area the hotel was in did not seem safe at all. There was a bus stop with unsafe people hanging around. The hotel is located right behind a gas station on a bust street. I had my son with me. I felt unsafe staying there with my son without my husband. I checked in went to the room and immediately went back downstairs and checked out. When I explained the situation the Expedia representative tried to get my money refunded and the hotel manager refused. Be cautious if you are a mom staying at this hotel without your spouse or significant other. I am writing this review because I would never want someone else in my situation to feel the way I did.
