Pros:

This hotel is definitely a gem. It was clean, fresh paint outside, no homelessness on the outside. The outside has cameras and well lit up so you can see your cars which are parked just steps from your door. The staff here are friendly, attentive and even leave you free snacks upon your stay!! What stood out the most was the cleanliness, soon as we checked out, the housekeepers were in our room cleaning and the 12 unit single-level motels were well kept. Also let me mention the double head showers which sprays the right amount of heated/cold water .. you will not want to get out! They should consider changing the name to Monterey Inn, it's definitely a gem & some back units come with Kitchenettes. Thanks for a great stay!!

basic motel situation.

bathroom was tiny/cramped, but workable.
busy road was out front (monterey rd), some road noise, but not terrible.
good value, i'd stay again.

Pros:

Cute little place off the beaten path. The rooms were decorated as though you were at home rather than the austere decor in most motels. The front desk was very nice and when my keycard didn’t work he gave me a new key and walked to my room to make sure it worked. He said sorry for the inconvenience. This is the most friendly customer service than I’ve seen in a long time.

Pros:

I originally complained the bed was terrible, but it actually wasn't
But the toilet rocked on the floor back-and-forth when you sat on it
And the shower was crazy, small and scolding water
But other than that, it was clean and inexpensive and did the job

Pros:

Typical motel, on a busy street, next to a used car lot.
A little road noise.
The room was clean and comfortable, though.
A little bit odd vibe when checking in, you dont go in the office, the clerk opens a locked door and asks you to hand him ID to check in, while you wait outside.
Aside from that oddity, everything was fine, id stay again of in area.
