My favorite place to stay in Monterey. Inexpensive, and incredibly safe! Quiet, pleasant with a generous room size that makes your room feel more like home.

Nice motel, convenient for tourist attractions of Monterey. Room was not well maintained though- bathroom fixtures a bit rusty and a squishy patch of floor that felt like the floorboards were about to break. However- staff were great- friendly, helpful.

Wonderful area close to everything, so that was a huge plus. The room was ok - i’d book if you plan to be out most of the day. Room smelled like cigarettes and the tub was a little rusty. The guy working at the front desk was extremely rude, told me that I was making his day difficult when I went in to ask a question. I won’t be back for that reason.

It suited my needs and will certainly consider returning but the room needs modernizing - broken lights. Nice people.

The inn was older but clean. The heating/cooler system in one of our rooms didnt work well but there was a fireplace which we used instead and was very nice. In one of our other rooms the mattress farthest from the door was very uncomfortable, my quest said they could feel the spring in their back. Lucky they had the room to themselves and slept in the other bed. Would consider staying here again for short stays 1-2 nights.

I was disappointed the room was very run down. Beds were uncomfortable, bathroom did not look clean and the receptionist was extremely rude. The thing that blew my mind was a $250 deposit for one night. Just ridiculous
