It was okay, seemed dated. Check in was weird. It was outsourced to India so you’re checking in on a screen and not someone on the property. AC didn’t seem to work too well.

I called before 12pm to confirm that the pool was going to be available and I was lied to. This is unacceptable especially since I brought my kids to this hotel because of the indoor pool. This is bad on the hotel. I was told maintenance was going to start tomorrow (Monday)

Our stay was nice - all we needed for a couple of days in Monterey. We used the laundry which was handy. Staff service could be improved - not overly helpful and check in is via a remote check in kiosk which I found a bit odd. Would recommend staying nonetheless as it’s a decent price.

Close to downtown Monterey with lots of options to eat. Affordable hotel and clean. Good jacuzzi and nice towels to dry off with. We liked the accessible washer dryer. Shampoo and conditioner and soap need to be higher quality. Lobby area has a off smell to it. Staff very friendly and room spacious. Nit picky but coffee creamers also need to be better quality. It was dried up and cracked.
