This place is one of the most affordable in the area, is in a great location, and has everything you need. Staff was very helpful with borrowing extra towels and getting cutlery for meals. We expected the place to be way worse based on what we paid, but ended up being pleasantly surprised. Also we got upgraded to a larger bed at check-in; likely because it was the off season.

Standard, but great stay. Clean and comfortable, nice staff. Laundry is available. Relatively short distance from the wharf, but loved the fact that you can actually walk there... finally a US place with pedestrian walkside and not car-centric.

All motels in Monterey

Looking for a motel?

    IT Was Terrible to receive a phone call from the hotel letting me know that my reservation was canceled and I had to scramble at midnight to find a terrible motel 30 minutes away from Monterey at a higher price because you overbooked and according to the guy that called, my reservation should not have been made!

    The lady at Reception was really friendly and helpful. The rooms were a decent size, particularly the twin room with a coffee machine which was very welcome. The rooms were clean and tidy although they could do with replacing some cracked tiles. The location is on a main road with places to eat nearby and just a short drive to the beach. There was plenty of free parking. We didn't have time to use the pool but it looked nice. The motel felt safe with a pretty exterior. We had a really pleasant stay here.
