Save your money!
Pros:

It was close to the bay

Cons:

I was told when I reserved the room that it would face the bay. When I checked in I was told that the rooms facing the bay were taken. I explained my case and was told that there was nothing they could do. A bay-facing room was the only reason I got it for my wife's birthday.

Great for couples on a weekend get away, or families looking to be near the beach.
Pros:

The Hotel is wonderful, our room was beautiful. They gave us an ocean view room even though we only paid for a standard room. It was a wonderful surprise. I sat by the widow in the morning drinking my coffee and watching the boats & scuba divers going in and out of the ocean. The staff was very professional and nice. It's located two blocks from the Monterey Aquarium and shops, the pier is a short walk away. We are planning a yearly trip now and will be staying here.

Cons:

There wasn't anything I didn't like about this hotel. It's a beautiful place to stay.

We were close to everything we wanted to do.
Pros:

We had a corner room that provided a great view of the Cannery Row. It was great to be able to watch the street "wake" up in the morning. Breakfast was simple, but tasty.
