Rooms are recently renovated with new paint, decor, lots of lights, and hard wood floor. Mattress was quite used with a ridge down the middle, but still soft. Bed sheets are of high quality. I spent 5 nights here as a solo female traveler. Felt safe and quiet here.

The hotel was very quiet and the beds were very comfortable. The front desk staff was a very sweet woman who gave us different ideas. Parking was not a problem and everything worked in our room. They are redoing the pool but that was fine with us. We had a wonderful time in Monterey!

It’s a pretty great place to stay if you’re out and about all day. Place is well-maintained and quiet the whole 4 day stay I was there.

Rooms were very clean and the amount of pillows was perfect for us. Pretty quiet and didn't hear road noise. We wished there was hangers and a full size mirror in the room along with a hook in the bathroom, but otherwise a lovely stay.

The price was great and you got what you paid for. It was comfortable and clean and the free coffee was good. Stayed one night and it was cheaper than camping.

Very nicely remodeled room. Bed very comfortable. The room heater had a noisy vibration, but overall, this was an outstanding value. Thanks.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The room itself didn’t have any drawers and as we were there for three nights, wanted to put our clothes away it also didn’t have a closet to hang anything, but a hook all in all it was just a roadside, travel and clean, comfortable wildly overpriced for the value, but everything in the area is wildly overpriced They didn’t make up the bed for our three nights stay or change towels at all. The best part was waking up at 1:30 in the morning to a blaring fire alarm that was just malfunctioning.

This is a no frills property. Very clean and doable. I would suggest upgrading to something a little more luxe if you're trying to stay for more than a couple of nights. The price is very fair and the bed was not bad. Very important to me!
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The room is clean. I especially appreciate the fridge and microwave so I can heat up leftovers from restaurants. The location is perfect. I could walk to a nice shopping center. And downtown, Cannery row, ocean view restaurants arejist a few minutes drive. Carmel by the sea is just within 10 minutes drive. It is a great value for the price.
