Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay

Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay

8/10 Good
"We had a great experience at the Portola Hotel & Spa! The staff was very friendly and helpful. A special thank you to Edgar Santos from Engineering for coming to our room and fixing the Wi-Fi so my son could connect and play his gaming system. He was kind, professional, and made sure everything was working before he left. My son was so happy! I just wished the jets at the jacuzzi were It’s the little things and great customer service that make a hotel stay even better. We really appreciated Edgar going out of his way to help us. Thank you for making our stay more enjoyable we would definitely stay here again!"
