We only stayed one night. However, The room was nice. We stayed on 3rd floor, you could hear a little bit of street traffic, but it was not terrible. The room was clean, bed was comfy and its in a great location. Jennifer at the front desk was great proving a goodie bag upon check in. She also offered a dinner and breakfast recommendation. We enjoyed the firepits and a bottle of wine on the second story. This hotel is located close to Cannery Row, and we left our car parked at the hotel as we explored the aquarium and surrounding shops. Great hotel would stay at again!

Really loved Monterey. The hotel was good too. The staff was great! The room was ok. It had an odor that was not very pleasant but bearable. Overall ok experience but most likely will stay at a different place next time…

We arrived early before check in time. I asked if we could park our car at the property so we could go explore until check in time. The gentleman at the front desk was so nice that he said our rooms were actually ready and we could check in. It made our day!

The front desk lady who checked us in was very friendly and helpful. Everything about the property was very good except for the room charge which could be a little less.

Very comfortable hotel. I like that the windows would open to let fresh air in, they have great blackout curtains. Comfortable beds and nice size bathroom. Of course very convenient on Cannery Row. Convenient parking on site.
