InterContinental the Clement Monterey by IHG

8/10 Good
"The layout of our room could use improvement. I had to turn on the light by the door to see the closet. There was a mirror there but no socket to insert my hair curler. I thought of when I traveled with another woman and need two mirrors. The hallway mirror wouldn't have been useful without a socket and a table to put my makeup bag on as my friend used the bathroom mirror--or my partner was using the toilet. In the bathroom there was no hook to put my damp towel onto as I used the mirror.The refrigerator was lodged in so tight that I bruised my hand opening it. The worst problem is that the TV remote didn't work until a staff member came to the room and found that it wasn't plugged into the back. That took about a half an hour before she came."
