A cozy spot close to everything in the Monterey area. Fairly quiet area and it was easy to park.

Good deal by the Sea
The motel receptionist is very friendly and accommodating. I got the room I requested. I arrived late and receptionist was there to greet me. I felt safe even though there was another sketchy motel across street who can see me walk to my room on the 2nd floor, I heard cat calls. The motel parking is well lit. I didn't have issues with noise, stayed during Thanksgiving weekend, it was very quiet, but when someone walked by I could hear everything. The inside was clean and comfy, it's a bit outdated, no smells, the floors were new, not carpet. Overall it was a good deal for the area.

Nice quiet spot
Nice spot for an overnight stay. Room was small, but comfortable. In-room coffee maker did not work, but overall nice place. The filtered water dispenser next to the ice machine is a nice touch.

Excellent Location. Small Rooms
Biggest concern was this location was on one of the busiest streets heading to the beach. Lots of Houseless people wandering around after dark. Didn't have any problems...just be back to your room by sundown. Great food next door at the Italian Restaurant and Pizzeria.

6/10 Good

My husband stays here frequently because he appreciates that is is updated and very reasonably priced. To be fair, he had no issues with his stay and would stay again but did admit this was the worst of all the rooms he had ever gotten. I joined him for one night. A noise in the walls, which turned out to be the pipes, woke me up frequently throughout the night. I also felt the bed to be lumpy/springy and, overall, uncomfortable. Everything else was fine. It was clean and conveniently located.

I was very rested after a good night's sleep. I appreciated the cleanliness and helpfulness of the people who were the managers.
