Based on a few reviews that I read, I wasn’t expecting much from the hotel. It is located not far from Highway 1 and is maybe 10 minutes from downtown Monterey and Cannery Row and close to the airport. I was pleasantly surprised starting at check-in as the clerk Michellie was very helpful and it was quick. Room 133 is a handicapped accessible room with a parking spot and ramp just outside the door. Inside, the room has a lot of space with simulated wood flooring, no carpeting so it can be slick if wearing socks. The king bed was very firm but comfortable. It had 4 pillows, which are small as you can see in the pictures. There is a small refrigerator in the corner with a microwave and coffee maker on top. The 39” tv is on top of the dresser and the desk is to the side. The bathroom is tile floored with a walk-in shower. The shower has a wall mounted bench and the shower wand is on an adjustable rail went at least 6-6” high as I’m 6-5 and had no problem. My wife sat on the bench to shower and lowered it to about 3 feet or so. Outside and across the parking lot was a vending area with the ice machine, a soda machine and a snack machine nearby a little courtyard. Coffee and water for tea is available in the lobby. Just up the lot from the courtyard was a bigger area where I saw a gas bbq along with tables if you want to grill your own dinner. Some reviewers mentioned plane noise from the nearby airport but we only heard maybe 3-5 over our two day visit and none were late night. Overall I was happy with the facility and would stay there again. If I had a complaint at all, it would be that they want to charge anywhere from $25-50 for checking in prior to 4pm. We arrived at about 3:30 and were able to get in quickly with no added fee. Check-out is 11am and if you want a later check-out, that can also cost you an additional $25. They’ll send you a text link asking if you want a later Checkout time and if not, an estimate of when you will check out.

There was no breakfast offered despite some pictures showing there was an area. A bright spot is that you’re not far from a number of restaurants, from chains to local eateries.

No breakfast provided, but I was upgraded to a double queen, staff was wonderful. I was pleasantly surprised on how remodeled and clean both the room and bathrooms were. The bathroom was a nice size, bigger than my house bathroom.

There was a lot of noise from other families staying around us, hitting walls and bumping or trying to use our room door, which is understandable since they were kids. Just wished the rooms had a bit more insulation to reduce outside noise. I think an airport is very near, since we heard airplanes taking off. It wasn't too frequent but at times it was really loud. Aside from the thin walls, I had a nice experience. Ladies at the office were soo nice and helpful! : )

It exceeded our expectation considering the price leans towards the lower end of what is offered in the area. We arrived not expecting much but everything was really great - from staff to room. Staff: we arrived late at night and was directed to a night window to check in. The staff at the window was extremely friendly and lovely for how late it was. Room: room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Beddings felt sanitized and soft. Usually, when I’m staying at Airbnb/hotels, I tend to break out on my face as I have very sensitive skin, but not the case this time! Lovely stay. Parking: we arrived close to midnight and there were still parkings super convenient to our room.

**None of these are anything to worry about, just minor updates hotel should be aware of for future improvements. Bathroom: bathroom door was jammed so it might be a safety issue for families with young children that do not know how to operate locks. Toilet: the plumbing system is so loud, literally scared us everytime we flush. Noise: Although it was a relatively quiet stay for us, the upstairs guests had young children, which created ALOT of noises in the morning. So if you’re a light sleeper, this might not be the right fit for you. But other than that, it’s really not a big deal like other guests have stated. Nice to have: indoor slippers would be nice since the flooring is wooden, and I generally don’t like wearing outside shoes inside my sleeping space.

Looks very clean, smells good as well. Staff is friendly. The only thing I am trying to figure out is which hotel gave me bed bug bites. I have lived in 3 different places for the weekend, not sure which one, so just checking if anyone has the same experience in the same hotel.

Reception was friendly and upgraded our room. Cushy fluffy pillows.

You don't get daily towels unless you go to the ofc and get them (I wasn't told this upon registering,). Upon arriving at our room the frig had leaked a large puddle which I used most of the towels to clean. Maintenance was good at mopping afterward but didn't replace my towels. At check-out I ask for a credit on the room for the initial mess but was turned down becuz I was given an upgrade before-hand. Otherwise...I thought that was rude.

Property was clean and tidy with an area outside to sit. The outside area had lots of trees and hanging baskets with flowers which made it very pleasing. The only criticism would be the size of the bad which was only a King size and the lack of a pool to use.

The nearby road which was at times( mainly during the day) could be noisy with traffic.

I was actually pretty impressed, and I am not easy to impress! The place was clean, spacious, and comfortable. My complaints are minor and few. Basically had to do with the structure of the parking lot, steps, and stairways. But not worth mentioning.

Some of the structure. The parking lot is uneven. There was a staircase in the way of the room that we were first assigned. My travel companion was worried about me bumping my head on it-walking out of the door. We were moved to another room because we couldn’t get the heater to work in the first one, which actually turned out to be our fault. We just couldn’t figure out how to turn it on. We didn’t care for the steps leading up to the first room, however when we were moved to the second room, we found a stairway with only three steps rather than six or seven. It just made it a lot easier.

Ease of booking, availability, and price.

Unfortunately, the guests staying in the room above had kids running and jumping on the beds and floor until midnight and started up again at 6 a.m. Not the hotel's fault, but it did make sleeping difficult. Will know to never accept a lower room in any future reservations.

The location was perfect and the rate was great compared to the comps.

Water pressure in the shower was pretty low and the room had an odor of a past smoker. Also, the drink vending machine wouldn't accept cards (it was displaying an error and the snack vending machine was not functional.

Had to give a $200 deposit will not get back until 5-7 days!! Stayed here when it was Comfort Inn No deposit ever required.
