Super friendly staff - from the valet to the front desk. Really felt like I was being given great service and that it did t batter that I was dressed for hiking!

There is no need to live in Carmel nearby, this is enough, the cleanest and best place at the same price

It was already evening when we arrived in Monterey. After checking in, we hurried to dine at a Thai restaurant not far away. The town was very quiet. Although we didn’t pay much attention to the environment around the hotel, when we went to the hotel for coffee early in the morning, we saw how beautiful the sea and sky next to the hotel were. The guest rooms were also very clean. I felt that the trip was worthwhile. It was a pity that we should have stayed one more night. I guess I’ll make up for it next time. 😊

When I checked in at the hotel, I happened to see the beautiful sunset on the large terrace on the first floor. The service staff was very friendly and brought a microwave for us. Thank you very much! The surrounding sea view is unforgettable!

The room was spacious and comfortable, with a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean outside the window. During dinner, you can see whales, dolphins, seals and other marine life swimming nearby, which was a pleasant surprise.

Unbeatable sea view, good service, but no parking lot. Of course, the valet doorman is very good.

The hotel is not worthy of its name. The inland room is not the land, but the roof. The front desk service is lacking. The lobby view is average
