We enjoyed our stay over overall the beds were more of a foam mattress. It was super comfortable. We felt like it was pretty quiet. We stayed there a couple nights in a row and everybody was pretty chill. The staff were really helpful and easy to reach Lots of parking easy to get to Denny’s and some of the breakfast spots so it kind of central located for waking up early Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will book it again

It was a clean and quiet room. The beds were comfy. But it was missing a mini fridge, hair dryer and iron. Bath towels were super tiny. Definitely not worth the weekend rate but clean and felt safe. Just be aware that it is a bare bones kinda room.

Good price for being near to Monterey bay with free parking. It is a basic motel but rooms are recently renovated so nicer than expected but very small especially when 2 adults and 2 teenagers in room but fine for passing through for one night. Would not go in the pool, can’t imagine it’s cleaned much. Also on checking in they tried to charge me again even though I had already paid through Hotels took a bit of convincing and showing my app for them to agree. Definately recommend Dennys for breakfast over the road. Also go on a Monterey bay whale watching trip, we saw orcas.

Thick aroma of curry smacks you in the face as you enter the front lobby. We ended up with a room above that lobby and had to enjoy the sweet smell of curry for our evening. Other than that, it was fair for the cheapest price in town.

Staff rude. Housekeeper didn’t pull our room door to lock, when we arrived in the afternoon, as I insert my door key, I was able to push the door wide open. Luckily nothing seems to be stolen/lost. Poor safety protocol for staff.

The front desk hung up on me twice lol. This is a place you stay if you want a quick cheap stay and aren’t planning on spending extended time at the inn itself. The place is incredibly run down and loud due to proximity to the airport and it’s just dingy. The shower consistently leaked. I would not stay here again.
