After a terrible hotel experience in Pismo Beach we arrived a day early and asked to see a room before we stayed an extra night here. Craig was thoughtful enough to show us a room that was remodeled and clean. We were relieved! We’ve stayed at all levels of hotels and this is a nice property at an affordable rate. We now have a new go to hotel in Monterey!! Very short walk to everything you’d need, even a Trader Joe’s, Rosine’s for a delicious sit down meal (ate breakfast and lunch here), Red’s Donuts, Revival for yummy ice cream, Walgreen’s, Chipotle, Panda Express, and the wharf. Visit Old Fishermen’s Grotto for the best clam chowder! Buying a bread bowl to go outside saves you $10, but requesing a window seat for sit down dining is nice. All dishes we’ve eaten there in the past have been A . Thanks so much Craig, and we look forward to staying at your hotel again!

Average but still a good value

Service and friendliness was great. Hotel is older and lacks some amenities like a decent wifi (slow up on 3rd floor). Room is basic but clean. Bed could use an upgrade. Can certainly hear traffic so bring some ear plugs. Overall value for $ is decent compared to other properties nearby.

We loved it here, especially for the price. Everyone was so friendly, they gave us some extra pillows when we asked very late, 24-hour coffee in the front was nice. Also very convenient and walkable from any direction downtown. Will definitely stay here again.
