We stayed in a suite. It was big enough for 4 adults, toddler and infant. My only issue was the shower head was leaking from the top and sprayed over the current and soaked the extra TP and my clothes that were sitting on the toilet. It’s definitely an option again. The breakfast options were quality, close to the beach, and decently priced. If you’re staying in Monterey, it’s going to be expensive, so for 1 night, it did the job.

Horrible experience
On the day of check in, there was an employee hosing down the hallway right outside our room, which was extremely noisy. I asked to be switched to a different room, but the front desk was rude. He just said they were fully booked and didn’t even apologize. However, the sign indicated that there were vacancies. Also, there were hairs on the bed. I kept calling but no one answered. The only reason that I could think of is the I checked in with my husband with a room with king size bed. The front desk clerk was visibly uncomfortable. I felt that we were being discriminated against by the staff. Overall it was a horrible experience. I wouldn’t recommend it at all.

Would Easily Stay Here Again if I Were in the Area
Solid location, room, and amenities... Mini-fridge doesn't have a freezer compartment, which would've been nice to have, as well as an AC unit where the temperature can be fine tuned VS cold and colder. Cost is a lot better than other places.

It’s old and dirty. Stained carpets, odd hallway smell, dead bugs. It needs upgrades.

Nope
The front desk decided to go take a nap and not take the phone with them. They put a sign up to call to check in but didn’t answer multiple calls, or the doorbell for 30 minutes or more. He came out half asleep to check us in…finally. I didn’t expect a fancy room for the price. Really just cared about clean and functional. It isn’t that. The carpet looked like it hadn’t been vacuumed. There was an incredibly thick layer of dirt and hair on less touched surfaces like baseboards, corners and appliances. The shower had mold in every corner and the walls looked a little dingy. The bed bug covers were torn so useless… but fortunately I saw no signs of bugs. The tvs didn’t work right. One wouldn’t change channels and the other changed on its own constantly. A room down the way had a fire alarm going off at 10 minute intervals. Breakfast wasn’t worth the time it would take to eat there. It was a place to sleep and the towels looked clean. If that’s all you need than it should do. Personally I’ll spend an extra $50-$100 and skip this hole.

Paid 300$ per night and got nothing. A shabby show. Insect in rooms. Molds in bathroom. No bedsheets available if you feel cold after 10 pm. No lotion or conditioner. Expected much better for 300$ and from a best western property.
