The room was adequate for the price. I don’t expect plush at a budget motel. The room was a bit shabby, but clean. The bed was comfortable! The thing that bothers me the most is the BRIGHT overhead lighting. A nice bedside lamp with dimmer light would’ve been much appreciated.

I’m giving this place 5 stars, not for luxurious furnishings or a giant pool, but because it is clean, rooms have been recently remodeled and the bed with a memory foam mattress was surprisingly comfortable. The employee staffing the front desk when we checked in was friendly and helpful. Parking was a little crowded but adequate. TV had Dish Network but no ability to cast from your phone or stream anything, but that actually helped us to get out of the room and see more of Monterey. 10/10 will stay here again! Overall a great value!
