Location is perfect. Short walk to amazing State beach. Staff were friendly and informative. Lots of families staying there during Easter weekend but hotel was nice and quiet at night. Decent beds. Breakfast is included but don’t be too optimistic. You get a great location with quick access to Monterey without a Monterey hotel markup. And the beach is 100% worth it.

Had to go to Walmart to buy my own towels, the hotel towels were badly stained and I could not risk putting my face on it. This made me hesitant using the rest of the amenities. Friendly staff. Beach is right there.
