It was nice but they were doing construction on some of the hotel and unable to use swimming pool because they were doing construction on that too. Loved the area close to beach and piers and shops and a park for my grandson.

Thank you very much for staying with us despite the renovation, and thank you for giving us your honest feedback. It is considered a slower season for hotels these days, and before the Summer comes, we wanted to get the renovation completed. We truly apologize for the inconvenience the renovation has caused you and your travel partners. We hope that if you were to plan a trip to the Monterey area in the near future, you will consider staying with us again. We hope to better serve you then with all the renovation being completed and amenities available again.

Very noisy neighbors, wall and floors are too thin. Hear all the walking and banging noise from top floor and neighboring room.

This was perfect for what I was looking for in Monterey Bay. It was within walking distance to everything and was very affordable. Staff was friendly and pool was nice. The only thing I had difficulty with was the tv. Perhaps it was operator error, but I couldn’t figure it out. Otherwise, I would recommend this property.

Paid for a Queen size bed got a Full instead. Besides that it was a great room in a great location.

The bed mattress was terrible. The shower curtain kept trying to float in and stick to me. The wireless was way too slow, hard to connect and stay connected to. I tried to get the staff to help on these items and they were of no help!
