I cannot believe that a large and beautiful property such as this does not have backup generators…… it certainly is not their fault that the power went out, but they should have been prepared, the power goes out at one point or another, everywhere!!

After having paid 300 usd for a night, I had to face a lot of inconvenience. There was no power for the entire night. Had to take stairs with our baggage to the second floor. No compensation was offered for this inconvenience. Additionally, I was charged for the Valet service as well.

A nice hotel in the Monterey area. Walkable to shops and dining options. Unfortunately, there was a power outage for almost 24 hrs. The hotel had no power or hot water, it was cold weather and we had no hot water for the shower or the use of the heating. We then had to repeatedly ask guest services for towels and to get the room cleaned. we had requested room servicing within the required time. Front end Staff were polite and did their best to help. Location is in a great area of town.
