Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
No actual person in the lobby for booking, only someone we couldn't understand on a Zoom type television screen whom we wonder where and in what country he was located. Creepy to us. The room was small and smelled strongly of urine in the carpet or furniture. Slats on windows instead of curtains, and this let in large amounts of light all night because the room stayed well lighted.

Our stay was nice - all we needed for a couple of days in Monterey. We used the laundry which was handy. Staff service could be improved - not overly helpful and check in is via a remote check in kiosk which I found a bit odd. Would recommend staying nonetheless as it’s a decent price.

Close to downtown Monterey with lots of options to eat. Affordable hotel and clean. Good jacuzzi and nice towels to dry off with. We liked the accessible washer dryer. Shampoo and conditioner and soap need to be higher quality. Lobby area has a off smell to it. Staff very friendly and room spacious. Nit picky but coffee creamers also need to be better quality. It was dried up and cracked.

The hot tub wasn't clean. A lot of debris in the bottom and when I turned on the jets, it became very foamy, a sign that it needs to be cleaned.
