Second stay but probably won’t return. The hotel is clean. They want $44 to check in 90 minutes early. With similar motels lining Munras and all over the area you’d think they’d be more interested in repeat business that trying to squeeze a few more dollars out of a guest. Not a different decision to just pick another motel. We stay in Monterey about every other weekend from August to December and have never had this issue anywhere else.
