Staff did a great job ensuring cleanliness of room and ensuring we had what we needed. Close to Monterey and attraction's. Parking in the back tricky and second floor guests were loud. Not the motels fault but could hear walking around. Otherwise an ok stay.

This was a great stay to be close to the highway 1 coast with the current closure. We were able to see Monterey, Carmel by the sea, and drive the coast up to the highway closure. Despite this being located at what seemed like a busy intersection, it was surprisingly quiet. The room was very clean and it appeared to be newly updated. The staff at the office were very friendly and helpful. And they had a water refill station which we loved to fill our bottles for the day. We had a car for our stay and everything was accessible to drive to, just not sure about how walkable things would be from here. Thanks for the great stay!
