The Monterey Hotel

8/10 Good

"The valet parking was helpful as the hotel is on a busy street. You do have to pay a flat rate fee of course. There is a parking a garage across the street as well. The staff is very kind, helpful and responsive. The room was clean. Personally, I think if I just needed a place to stay on a solo vacation, because I was going to be out exploring most of the days, it’s a good option. If I had more people in my group, I’d probably look into a different stay and room. Cafe’s, restaurants, beaches and other things to explore is walking distance so that was a huge plus!"
