Basic but good for value
The place is very cute outside. Did some upkeep, but still run down inside. Stain on chair at table. Bed was comfy and the bathroom was big. Nothing too bad. Great for value and they were nice there. If youre just looking for a place to sleep, its good. $200 hold.
The property was very quaint. Very clean. Quiet except for trash truck that comes at 6AM each morning. There is a Microwave and Fridge. No coffee so bring your own. There us a Starbucks 2 min away by car at the mall. We really enjoyed our stay and the price was very competitive. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip through.
I drove 4 hours and arrived 40 minutes early to official check in time of 3pm. With 2 cars in the parking lot and no-one in office, I tried to check in but was told 40 minutes would be a $40 charge. I just shook my head and completely changed my family plans for that evening. I returned 2 hours later and had to wait in line for 20 minutes to check in.
The only reason for the “average “ grade is because the water in the bathroom- shower and sink- did not get hot. I did report it after our 1st night, was told “ all the rooms are on the same temp setting, but someone would look into it. The 2nd morning we again took a lukewarm shower.

The room I got was decent considering the price compared to other chains in the area. It didn’t smell but it is very rough around the edges as far as paint and drywall but clean. Plumbing sounded like a sledge hammer in the wall when my neighbour ran the tap and because the building is old, you can hear everything outside very clearly. No 24 hour concierge is a con for me as we had a power outage during my stay. I found it quite scary as it was late at night and I was a solo female. Definitely need a car for the area. There is a gas station with snacks nearby and some homeless people outside. Definitely better for couples or men. Really close to the del Monte mall and Whole Foods.
The front desk staff was very polite and helpful. My only critique would be that some of the guests were having loud conversations, and their voices carried to my room. Perhaps I could have called to ask the front desk to ask these people to lower their voices. But otherwise, I had a pleasant stay.
The parking lot is small and probably can only fit one car per guest. There is street parking.
Motel is a 15 minute walk to a mall where there is a Macys and other department stores. It is also a 10-15 minute walk to downtown Monterey where all the restaurants, cafe, and shops are at. Very convenient location considering street parking and even metered parking can be tough to find in the downtown area.
I liked the bed as it had a great mattress. The motel was very tired and broken/ Wifi didn’t work, aircon didn’t work, the fridge was on but did not cool, all towels were stiff and thin. No cups (except 3 very bendable thin plastic, no kettle/ tea or coffee facilities anywhere. Do not recommend.
