Monterey Holidays

Clean comfortable, nice view of the bay

Excellent breakfast!

A boutique nautical themed hotel with an excellent modern on site restaurant and bar. Great location to stay and close to great attractions e.g. Alcatraz cruise, bike the bridge etc

I loved the friendliness of staff from the time we arrived through our departure, especially Blanca! Loved that we could bring our own treats and enjoy the fireplace and the happy hour as well.

The neighborhood has a huge amount of homeless people actively doing drugs on the street. I have traveled a lot all over the world and this is probably the worst I have ever seen. I'm fine with a few people here and there but when you are walking down the sidewalk and having to pass through large groups of 15-20 people, it feels kind of sketchy. Market St is definitely not what it once was and a huge amount of retail stores are closed. Bottom line, stay aware of your surroundings and plan to take Uber at night rather than walking. The room was just okay. Our room looked out to a blank wall and was not overly bright. There were no chairs in the room except for one at the desk but THERE was an exercize bike which made a great place to hang your clothes. There is also no coffee or tea in the room and the coffee service in the lobby is not available all day. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was fine. The separately owned restaurant off the lobby was closed on Sunday and the bar in the lobby was closed on Sunday also which seemed like bad planning to me. There are pool tables in the lobby and upstairs in the game room. There was also a shuffleboard and two pinball machines available to play at no cost which was nice. They pinball machines do need some maintenance and there was no chalk for the poll cue sticks. Overall, I'd say the hotel worked okay for our trip but I can't say I was wowed!
