It is a super convenient location. There's even a gas station in the same parking lot. Super close to Pebble Beach and nice trails too. The furnishings were surprisingly really nice, but because of what floor you are on because your window can be totally visible from the parking area.

Bargain at its best

The hotel was good, clean room with lots of space. The other guest were somewhat inconsiderate of the noise the doors make if you don’t slow them down when they close. Given the price paid I have zero complaints. Centrally located for easy moving about.
