Monterey Bay Coastal Trail Resorts

"Place was decent for the price and last minute booking. Only concern of mine was the very strong Clorox smell within the room."

"We’ll be staying here whenever we’re in Monterey from now on. The hotel was in great shape, right on the beach, and had an attached full restaurant and bar. Staff were all super nice. It’s an extra 10 minutes to drive to the aquarium or golf courses, but well worth it for the price."

"Clean room, Welcoming staff, Quick and friendly valets, Shops and Dining nearby "

"The location is convenient, and the views are phenomenal. The staff is kind, and our stay was pleasant. The Schooner restaurant did not win our approval for food."

"The room was pleasantly nice. I didn't know what to expect exactly from a Motel 6. Nice big beds, good rest, 3 people with 2 large beds. Clean and good deal in 2026 for about $90 per night. Free coffee in the morning in the office."

"We were upgraded and had a nice suite with a great view. Staff was very friendly. Would stay here again. "

"Great location "

"The rooms in the old section is very small with no table , no fridge or microwave and bathroom is also very tiny."

"I booked this hotel specifically because the website advertised it as pet friendly — that was the deciding factor. What I didn’t see anywhere in the listing was any mention of a $100 pet fee for a single night. That’s a significant charge that deserves to be upfront, not buried or absent entirely. I travel with my emotional support animal, and in my experience, most accommodations either waive the pet fee for ESAs or at least have a clear, transparent policy. When I checked in and was told about the charge, I was caught completely off guard. When I explained that my animal is a registered ESA, the front desk staff were polite but firm — no exceptions. The room itself was fine, and the property is clean. But the lack of transparency around fees and the blanket policy that ignores the distinction between pets and emotional support animals left a bad taste. If you’re going to market yourself as pet friendly, at minimum be upfront about the costs. A $100 fee for one night is steep, and finding out at check-in is a frustrating way to start a stay. Travelers with ESAs, take note — call ahead and confirm the fee policy before booking, because “pet friendly” here doesn’t mean what you might expect."
