Great location, price and newly remodeled pool!

Great for what we needed. Most definitely budget-friendly route. Limited working outlets. Quiet grounds and remodeled pool is ready once it warms up! Bring your own pillow.

This little motel is very clean. The rooms are basic. Our room had a microwave and fridge. The fridge made a bit of an outer-space sound when it ran. There is an iron and ironing board, a hairdryer. Spent 2 nights and were surprised to return to a room that had been cleaned and towels replaced. The included continental breakfast is very basic: some egg and sausage muffins to reheat and a pastry. The Keurig coffee is excellent. If you like Half ‘n Half, bring your own. The breakfast also offered apple juice and water in bottles. University Inn is a step up in amenities from some of the other inexpensive motels up and down Monterey. I’ve stayed a few times.

Front desk staff was very pleasant. Room was clean & comfortable. The parking lot & grounds appear to be under renovation & were torn up, so hopefully they are more pleasant in the near future. The light breakfast consisted of pre-cooked packaged breakfast sandwiches & pastries. I don’t know what the $25 “Property Fee” was for???
