Our room was dimly lit. Only one light and it was not that bright. Room did not have lamps or any other source of light. Small tv with only local channels and cable TV like in an early 2000s hotel. Pool was closed. The room seemed like it was being renovated. There was a huge mirror just leaning against the toilet. And screws left on bathroom cabinet. The bathroom mirror was dangerously hanging with only 2 screws. Water pressure was really low in the shower. Small refrigerator made a loud sound all night. Fire alarms flashed us all night looked like they were low on batteries. Just old and outdated.paper thin walls, you can hear everything!!!

The room itself was dirty. The room smelled like cigarettes and there were cigarette holes everywhere (including the sheets). Stains on every towel, even after getting new ones. Bedsheets were stained too. I gave it 2 stars because I was shocked there were no bed bugs.

My room smelled like urine. No toilet paper or soap in the room - had to ask the front desk. Towels were dirty, I’m glad I had my own. Smoke detector hang from the ceiling with wires exposed. If I could’ve gotten a refund I would have gone somewhere else.

Great rate for a last minute, one night stay, in Monterey. Bed was clean as was the rest of the room. Unfortunately, the bath tub wasn't cleaned as thoroughly as the rest of the room. Other than that, it was a good value for short notice on a weekend.

We stayed 2 nights in August 2024, paid close to $650 for these nights and were shoved off to another "motel" because they were remodeling. No, they overbooked this one and didn't know where to go with us! This is highway robbery, totally! Nobody knew anything, no manager was available so we just had to take it. I will be filing a complaint with the BBB that these crooks get out of business as soon as possible. (I see they always respond with empty words, they do NOTHING to reimburse of satisfy travelers. Shame on you!)

Honest review.
It smelled bad, gym like, dusty, cigarette smoke as soon as I walked in. Furniture was beat up. Nothing matched in there. Paint of room was awful. There was a chair that had paint on it. TV didn’t work. Beds were not comfortable and sheets were not replaced. There was hair bugs and dirt. Restroom was bad. Don’t stay here. Front desk even said the owners don’t care. I didn’t even have time to take pictures. I just took my family out of there asap.

We reserved 2 rooms for our stay. One was bad, the other terrible. There was one light only, no trash can, the tv didn't work, the floor was so dirty, I had to use the bath mat to clean my feet before getting in the bed. The bed was hard and not made correctly. The bed skirt was on top of the mattress, then a bottom sheet, then a blanket, followed by the top sheet and coverlet. I had to remake the bed to sleep in it. There was very loud music playing outside on property speakers until at least midnight. I was happy I remembered to pack ear plugs "just in case". I do not expect perfection, but I do expect my room to be clean.

This was by far my worst accommodation experience of my life. Sheets and pillowcases covered in black scruff marks including a shoe print. Staff did give us fresh pillows but couldn't change the sheets. Blood on the comforter. Hair and stains on the towels. Sticky grime on the floor. Windows had no fly screen so the windows opened straight to the outside. Our friends stayed in two other rooms and had the same experience including a broken AC/heater unit and blood stains on their towels. We literally could not make this up if we tried.
