Excellent place to rest . We stayed for one night and it’s definitely worth to stay for short term
Stayed 1 night in May 2025

I like how it is convenient around stores, the construction in the back was noisy.
Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025

6/10

Convenient location as it is centered by local shopping centers such as target, Costco, home goods and food places, about 10min drive from old fisherman’s wharf, 15-20min drive from aquarium. The place is on a Main Street so you do hear from time to time loud cars but overall quiet. Rooms come with the essentials needs such as bathroom and a bed to sleep however not updated or modern to say, did have ac or heater, tv channels, fridge and microwave, majority was clean besides some hairs in the restroom FYI restaurant next door Gusto, very good definitely recommend pizza and pasta was delicious

The staff was very polite. Unfortunately the room we got had a kitchenette and the drawers had old debris, like a dirty cutting board and moldy garlic from past guests.

Thr room itself was great. It was clean and spacious. The areas surrounding the hotel were horribly noisy. I had a construction site right next to my window. Motel itself was very quiet.

Overall our stay was fine. It met most of the expectations we had for the hotel. The mattresses were pretty thin and the frame that it sits on sticks out so be careful not to walk into like i did. Still have a bruise on my knee. Ha ha. The dish tv would occasionally lose signal mid show but we only watched tv to end the night so not a huge issue. The proximity to Laguna Seca raceway was good as was the ease of going to Monterey a few days during the trip.

Cute and cozy and convenient. Would have liked to be able to use bath but spout was capped. It was very clean and check in and out were easy. It was in a good location as well.

First of all the moment you walk in the room it smells, like if they mop with dirty water, my son got a bug bite and at night it’s pretty loud we had two rooms right next to us getting it on multiple times that we could hear everything till 2am

There were loud noisy stomping neighbors but they don’t ever get issue from me they just feel they can say who can have company and who can’t which isn’t fair

It was very dirty and there should have been security there to enforce the partying that was going on around the room we stayed in.

Bed was painfully hard and had a weird metal support that stuck out from under the mattress so that I hit my leg getting out of bed. Bathtub has been oddly disabled for use. Strange pipes sticking out from wall. The decor was charming. Room was quiet. Staff was efficient.

Enjoyed our stay, felt safe and comfortable. Cleanliness could’ve used some work and guest reception could’ve been better though we did check in overnight around 1:00am.
