Plenty of parking space yet they charge for parking, rooms could cross hear noise from other side, walking in room above is so obviously heard..., room allocation planning was poor, should place guests in rooms such that the noise is not crossheard

I really loved my stay here. The hotel itself is very nice and updated. My room was great- no complaints other than the lighting in the bathroom was a bit dark. My dog was very comfortable staying here as well. The location was great- very close to all the spots we visited in Monterey and Carmel. Hotel is just right off the highway so you can easily hop on. If you have a dog walk them at the college campus next door! Great walking option and just a stones throw from the hotel.

This was our second time staying at this property and will definitely be returning. The front desk staff was kind, friendly, and helpful. The room was spacious which was helpful for our energetic toddler. Would highly recommend staying here
