Very nice
We felt we were in a little dicey neighborhood but felt so safe and cared for as soon as we got to our room. We had trouble with our air conditioner which was immediately resolved. The room was very cleaned and they gave us housekeeping every day.

This is our second time staying here & we like how convenient it is to get to the beach, easy highway access for all your dining/ shopping needs. The rooms are very clean but do need some updating over all it was a pleasant stay and will continue to use this Hotel for a quick beach getaway.

The air conditioning unit didn’t work had to call front office. The toilet seat was only attached with one bolt. The shower curtain did not keep the water in and got all over the floor.

Basic place but very clean and room was renovated. Perfect for one night stay. Less than 15 min to Monterey Wharf. Staff was great. Seemed safe surrounded by car dealerships. Walked across lot to good Italian place for dinner. Better coffee/tea options in room and lobby would’ve been appreciated. No yea in room Keurig. No hoy water in lobby.
