Pros:

Close to a lot of shops and food spots, cute decor, and there’s a pokestop nearby lol

Cons:

Once we got there the key card for our room didn’t work, so it took a bit to get a new one and once inside we realized the bed is on a metal frame for some reason? So every move we’d make on the bed would cause loud metal noises. The walls are very thin and it didn’t look fully cleaned. It was clean enough for us but you can tell they don’t do a thorough clean with the dust spots on the windowsills and baseboards. The conditioner in the shower was empty and the shower head was so small and didn’t have much water pressure. The blinds on one of the windows was broken as well so it left a gap in the blinds that I had to use a pair of socks to hold closed. Definitely the only time we’ll be staying here.

Best motel to stay in the Monterey area
Pros:

Room was large and very clean. Everything worked perfectly and the location was great. We stayed here last September and there was no reason not to stay here again! And - This motel is a block away from a Costco with fresh sushi.

Left my items in bathroom and when called to try to obtain them back. I was just told they weren’t there. Despite me informing them I am 100% sure I left them there. Front office very unprofessional and did not help one bit

Great value!!
Pros:

Great value for the price! It was clean and the bed was more comfortable than expected. The location was very convenient with a really good restaurant, Gusto's, right next door. It's close to Monterey and the beach. We would definitely come back.
