The interior of the hotel is delightful with many skylights showering an indoor garden with light. Each room has a balcony. The pool is in an interior courtyard, shielding it from the wind, also a hot tub. Location is in a quiet neighborhood. Breakfast was generous with oatmeal, bagels, muffins, fruit, etc. Would stay there again!!

Our room was comfortable and clean. We enjoyed the fireplace, it made the cool evenings very cozy. The continental breakfast is generous and served for a good period of time (we are not the earliest risers!). It saved us a lot of money that we put toward nice dinners out. This is our second visit to the Monarch Resort and we'll definitely be back.
