A disappointing Stay in Monterey
I recently stayed at Mariposa Inn and Suites in Monterey, and it was a regrettable choice. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by how run-down the place felt. The exterior looked tired and in desperate need of maintenance, which set the tone for my stay. Once I entered my room, I was immediately disappointed. It was far from clean; I found hair in the shower and a musty smell that lingered throughout the room. It was clear that cleanliness was not a priority here. The furniture was outdated and uncomfortable. The bed felt lumpy, and the pillows were flat and offered little support. I woke up multiple times during the night due to discomfort, which made my stay even more frustrating. The noise from the nearby road didn’t help either, as it was quite loud and disruptive. The curtains were all wrinkled, not taken care of at all. The little porch was dirty and overgrown with weeds, and the Jacuzzi was stained yellow.I was truly surprised to see how neglected the overall property appeared; it felt more like a cheap motel than a suite. Overall, my experience at Mariposa Inn and Suites was disappointing, to say the least. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and clean stay in Monterey. There are certainly better options available that prioritize guest satisfaction and cleanliness. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere!

Sad that $200 is "low budget", but I guess it worked for 1 overnight in Monterey. I hate the term "Inn". Just call it a motel. Didnt love the broken elevator for our two fifty lb pieces of luggage, but a worker (supposedly) offered to carry up. Felt awkward as if he didnt work there, so I declined. Only real perks were very basic free continental breakfast and surprise parking garage.
