The grounds at this hotel were dirty and smelly. There were not hotel staff on the premises after 10:30 PM. There were people fighting outside our room, and there appeared to be drug deals going on in the parking lot lat at night. The room itself was clean, but the beds were hard and uncomfortable, and the mini-fridge was not cooling effectively.

The room was uncomfortable with nowhere to really sit but a metal chair and a plywood table. The bed was overly hard and pillows flat. The bed was also smaller than the metal frame it sat on. So you would smack your knees when trying to lay down. The toilet in the room cycled every 5 to 10 minutes. The toilet was also not secured to the floor very well and rocked when you sat down.

Floors were filthy dirty, beds very hard and bases were squeaky whenever you move, and WiFi completely unusable. Rooms pet friendly but fees hidden on site when booking so we ending up paying $400 for 2 nights mid week for a very poor hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness
Convenient location as it is centered by local shopping centers such as target, Costco, home goods and food places, about 10min drive from old fisherman’s wharf, 15-20min drive from aquarium. The place is on a Main Street so you do hear from time to time loud cars but overall quiet. Rooms come with the essentials needs such as bathroom and a bed to sleep however not updated or modern to say, did have ac or heater, tv channels, fridge and microwave, majority was clean besides some hairs in the restroom FYI restaurant next door Gusto, very good definitely recommend pizza and pasta was delicious

Overall our stay was fine. It met most of the expectations we had for the hotel. The mattresses were pretty thin and the frame that it sits on sticks out so be careful not to walk into like i did. Still have a bruise on my knee. Ha ha. The dish tv would occasionally lose signal mid show but we only watched tv to end the night so not a huge issue. The proximity to Laguna Seca raceway was good as was the ease of going to Monterey a few days during the trip.
