The motel was clean and comfortable and convenient to everything I wanted to do near Monterey. The walls are very thin, however, so might not be right for you if you're a light sleeper.

Nicely renovated little motel. It was very clean and had a nice size room and bathroom. Comes with a small coffee maker and a large mini fridge. The location is very convenient and has a Walgreens across the street. I would absolutely stay here again.

This is an older motel that has undergone a thoughtful and appealing renovation. It is a budget-friendly option in a good location. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable enough. Hopefully the owners will be able to also upgrade the plumbing and fixtures in the near future.

We loved our stay at Discovery In in Seaside. It was our first time staying in Seaside, and honestly our expectations were low. The staff was amazing, Maria kept our room spotless!! From check in, to clean towels daily, a freshly made bed each evening, great location with Safeway for amenities and Costco to fill up our tanks before we headed back home! Just 10 minutes to Monterey/Pacific Grove…we’ll definitely be back!! Thanks to your amazing staff for a great stay!!
