We (2 couples) stayed 3 nights in room with 2 queens. While this is not 4 star hotel, it is a clean, friendly, cost efficient stay. The room was clean and well set up.
The grounds appeared well taken care of. The koi pond inside the lobby is a nice place to sit, watch and relax. The pool is small but looked clean (cold days so we didn't get in) and has a lift for disabled guests to get in and out. There were people using the hot tub.
The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I did not see or hear any other customers having a bad experience with staff either.
They do not have a large breakfast but have hot / cold cereals, breakfast burritos and sandwiches you can heat, make your own waffles (including cinnamon, chocolate chips, nuts, powdered sugar, berry syrup), juices, coffee and hot chocolate (which you don't often find and I really like), yogurt, bagels and toast, pastries, and fresh fruit. Probably forgetting something.
There is an elevator for upper floor, ice and vending machines on 2nd floor. The hotel is only a few minutes from Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium (they also have 2 day passes for price of 1 for sale at front desk).
This was our 3rd stay in about 6 years (all our visits to Monterey) and will use again on our next. less
