Monterey Surf Inn stands out on the Monterey motel row for lots of good reasons Newly renovated with sleek modern touches and natural stone accents. Room was roomy with big tv and good WiFi This location is about two to four blocks to old Monterey and wharf and close to shopping center as well as highway 1 close. Plumbing fixtures besides toilet are functional but old Great weekday stay

The room was adequate for the price. I don’t expect plush at a budget motel. The room was a bit shabby, but clean. The bed was comfortable! The thing that bothers me the most is the BRIGHT overhead lighting. A nice bedside lamp with dimmer light would’ve been much appreciated.
