Good budget-friendly hotel, and only about 10mins away from Monterey attractions. Staff was friendly and helpful. They have a vending machine, ice machine, water refill station, as well as washer/dryer that came in useful during our trip. The room was a good size and very well distributed, with a good size bathroom. Everything seemed clean and tidy. Some parts of the room could use some upkeep like paint or repair but overall we were very comfortable during our stay. Definitely would stay here again.
