This was a fine option for staying in Seaside. I would have liked if the floors and bathroom were cleaned a bit more, but it was acceptable. Staff seemed stretched very thin but they were quite accommodating. Our room was quite large and comfortable.

I was here for car week. I understand the high room cost but the lack of room service and towels is unacceptable. The office is only open from 9 AM to 10 PM. I had to use hand towels on day to dry off and come back early one night to get the towels.

It was just OK. Definitely dated. Meta springs bed frame below mattress was noisy, at least when there is lots of movement. I thought the people above me were rude and making banging noises but after I realized they were probably just having sex in the noisy bed. Main areas were clean but dust land lint around edges and under doors. Fridg but no microwave.

Customer service was great! We were there for 9 days for Monterey Car Week. Elevated room prices not great, but they all do it for Car Week. Our first room didn’t have a closet, so they were able to move us to room with actual closet (we were there for the week attending different events, we needed a closet, not 2 hangers on 2 hooks). Our TV was not working - they replaced TV the next day! Room smelled clean, floor not clean. Beds were comfy, pillows were puffy. Microwave worked, fridge worked but seemed to be leaking-water on bottom of fridge & some on floor
3 hooks & 2 hangers not sufficient for long stay- require closet. That cube on floor is only place to store clothes

Not the best room. The bed frame sounded like it was going to fall apart and the shower did not drain properly, it was flooding while taking a shower.

I would say that it’s a good enough stay if you just need some sleep and a shower. But, when we walked in, the blinds were completely broken missing panels, crayon and sharpie was all over the headboards, and a couple other things. The man that checked us in was nice, but this room is perfect if you just need to get by at an “affordable price”.

Gross. Felt unsafe, right next to a liquor store and sketchy people just sitting in the parking lot all night. It is around car dealerships, but down the street is a target and some food places like Five Guys and Starbucks. The convenience is the only nice part. Room smelled terrible and had stains on the sheets, toilet and walls. Would not stay here again. Internet never worked even when connected, it says no internet.

The facilities were pretty nice but the general service was alright. The cleaning quality wasn't the best, you could tell they cleaned but didn't do a very good job. We only stayed one night so I don't know about room service. The minifridge was ridiculously loud, we had to unplug it to be able to sleep and so was the AC like in every motel ever. Pillows were super uncomfortable. I would say besides that it was pretty decent.
