Front desk and cleaning staff not communicating

I arrived early and was told my room was ready. I opened the door to find the room hadn’t been cleaned. I walked back up to the lobby and was told to wait 15 mins…I waited 30, went to the desk and they gave me a new set of keys to a different room, which also wasn’t ready. At this point I had to go to a meeting. Upon return 4 hrs later…my room was ready and they offered me additional cash on my wine card…great if you’re staying on the property, not helpful if you have plans off property

Pretty overpriced with hidden fees for things I didn’t really want. They have made this pretty nice hotel into a “ resort “ in Monterey. Was hit with very expensive parking fee and a “ destination fee” that resulted in paying 75$ more than I expected. I didn’t want a 12$ glass of wine or a s’mores kit! It’s a very nice location right on the beach which I was looking forward too. But we didn’t get a room with a view. And when I inquired I was informed that would 70$ extra. This was all handled very badly, it would have been nice to know about the extra charges ahead of time when I booked. The first impression of the place left me in a bad mood. This got a bit better after we swam in the pool which was heated and big enough to swim in.

Room were noisy, windows were not sound proof and there was gap below the door making the room extremely noisy due to wind outside. Non-friendly staff, tried to over charge multiple times and also billed us for the room charges when our room as already paid through Expedia. The front desk acted as if he doesn’t even know the room is pre-paid and seemed odd. I had to call them later to get the refund which they did but the whole experience was very odd. Specially since I had that conversation whole checking in and also checking out. In today’s date I find it difficult to believe that the front desk didn’t have the data that the room is prepaid, and tried to duplicate the charge which were eventually refunded
