The Monterey Hotel

The Monterey Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Very clean and well run hotel at a perfect location to enjoy the best of Monterey. The rooms were charming and quiet even though the hotel is located on a busy street. They were super welcoming to our dog and the charges were reasonable. We even lucked out on parking and found a spot in the garage across the street. Would definitely come back."
