This place was good. They are still under construction, but check-in was smooth and easy. We enjoyed getting the breakfast bags. The room was very spacious! We warned our kids that this would be a plain boring hotel and as soon as they walked in, they disagreed and thought it was the best! We even got a cot which fit nicely and helped us be more comfortable. The hotel was nothing spectacular, but was exactly what we needed.

The bed was comfortable, which is a big plus, and the room was quiet in spite of being on the same lot as the gas station. Fine for one night's stay and good price. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Great place to stay near Monterey!

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel! The check-in process was smooth and our room was very nice and clean! Breakfast was also great and easy to grab on our way out in the morning. The location was only about 20 minutes to Monterey which was perfect for us. Overall, I would definitely stay at this hotel again!
