Relatively recently renovated, but very poorly maintained. Located inly 20min away from Monterey, so it would be a great cheap alternative if the place was little tidier

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Immediately after checking in and going into the room we saw roaches. From being on the wall, the tv, under the bed area, in the mini fridge, and next to ac. We tried to call the desk after having called them on the way to hotel just 30 mins prior which was an issue too, couldnt hear when they answered, due to noise like someone had the phone shoved right up the speaker of a tv, the number on their site and then they called back after hanging up on me but they used someone elses number completely. But they didnt answer on either numbers after we tried to call to complain or see if they had a different room entirely but they shut all light offs after we checked in so no one was at desk area. Overall just disgusting

I suppose, for the price, I didn't expect too much but even then the place was disappointing. I was not a fan of the echo-prone hard surfaces everywhere in the room and the tile on the bathroom floor was scary slippery after the measly shower curtain failed to contain any overflow from the floor-level shower. There was an empty mini-fridge and a microwave in the room but it would've been great to have a one-cup coffee maker - because even if there was coffee available in the "lobby" they keep the exterior door locked (presumably because of concerns about crime?). Regrettably, cannot recommend.

Great property, would stay again. People were nice and room was nice. Conveniently located and easy to get to. Our only issue was that the bathroom smelled pretty strongly of cigarettes despite being a nonsmoking room, but would definitely stay here again.

The proximity to Moss Landing and Monterey was really nice for the price. The room was a bit dirty, but nothing that was outrageous. I’d definitely stay here again if I have to travel on a budget.
