My daughter and I had a great stay at the Stevenson while visit Monterey for the 1/2 marathon this past weekend. Check in was great, the room was nice and served our purpose and was within walking distance to the race. Thank you!

We stayed at the Stevenson for the Monterey Bay Half in 2025. It was perfect - walking distance to the race start, finish, and expo, and was clean, comfortable, and good value.

Lindsey

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
I arrived after reading the reviews and it was not at all what I expected. The older gentleman at the front desk was not accommodating or friendly at all. The area the hotel was in did not seem safe at all. There was a bus stop with unsafe people hanging around. The hotel is located right behind a gas station on a bust street. I had my son with me. I felt unsafe staying there with my son without my husband. I checked in went to the room and immediately went back downstairs and checked out. When I explained the situation the Expedia representative tried to get my money refunded and the hotel manager refused. Be cautious if you are a mom staying at this hotel without your spouse or significant other. I am writing this review because I would never want someone else in my situation to feel the way I did.
