"Simple, but clean and well maintained old-fashioned hotel in a great location right near the beach, pier & board walk. Staff was friendly & helpful; let us leave our car in the carpark for a couple of hours after we'd checked out."

46 and 48 year old couple from the UK: I booked this hotel as part of a trip we are doing down the west coast. Keeping our hotel costs to a minimum we booked to stay here for 1 night with no real expectations.
From our arrival to leaving we have been really impressed from start to finish. Highlights include
Early check in and upgraded room
Complimetary drinks in the evening
Smore kits for in the evening
Hire/borrow beach equipment
Free coffee at breakfast
AMAZING bed. Probably the most comfy...

The room we had facing the beach was amazing.
Fantastic views and great location.
Staff were lovely and very helpful.
Wish we could have stayed longer, and would definately stay there again.

Ours was a last minute stay on a road trip as our booked accommodation had to cancel due to water damage at the last minute. Found this place on Expedia and was great value for money for a Saturday night in Monterey area. Great location, easy parking and good facilities available. Recommended!

Lovely hotel based a few minutes away from the promenade. Staff were fantastic, very knowledgeable and helpful. The room was exactly as it is in the photos and the outdoor space was a great place for breakfast. The only negative I would have would be the plumbing noise. We were on the ground floor so every time someone else flushed or ran water it was quite noisy but it definitely wouldn't deter me from staying here again.
