"What a gem! We loved this place! Simple but clean. We liked that our boys had a little separate room with their bed. It was such a great find, and I’d definitely recommend it to others. My only suggestion…add nightstand lamps!"

"Clean room, staff is nice, parking was pretty easy when I went, but not sure how it’s like on other days. It’s just noisy. Walls are too thin, but overall it was good. Nothing to complain about for a short stay and good price. I just wanted it clean and it was."

"We were pleasantly surprised at the lovely room, courteous staff and great location. We don't drink wine, but the wine vouchers were a nice touch. (We gifted them to some other travellers) My only issue was the fireplace worked intermittently and there was not enough counter space in the bathroom. All in all we would stay there the next time we are in Monterey and definitely will recommend the Abrego!"
