Find 2-Star Hotels in Monterey County

"There were some changes since the last time we stay here in 2023. The breakfast does not have any eggs, yogurt, or fruits anymore. They put in a coffee/mocha/latte machine. The heater/fan makes noises so we had to turn it off even though it was colder than we like in the room. Then it was kind of stuffy in the room without airflow. We opened the window for awhile, which helped. The tap water has bleach smell. The staff is accommodating."

"Carmel is a beautiful town and the hotel is in the town centre, so the location is perfect. Room was a little dated, but reasonably clean. On the night we arrived to check in, staff was super friendly and helpful. He gave us detailed instructions regarding our room and parking, also local restaurants recommendations. His service was a 5 star! On the morning of departure, we vacated the room and checked out at 9am. We went for a stroll in the town, and returned after an hour. When we returned at 10am I asked the staff (not the friendly staff helped us check in) if I can use a restroom. Knowing we just checked out, the staff bluntly replied there isn’t public toilet in the hotel, so we’d better use the one in the local park. When we asked if we could go back to our room to use the toilet as it’s still early. His said the cleaners were already in. We then walked to our car which was next to our room, only to find the cleaners hadn’t been at all. Zero hospitality, disappointed."

"Hotel service is very good, forgot the certificate, the hotel helped me keep it very well"

"Location is good. But there’s stain on the bedsheets. And no tissue box is provided in the room."

"There are a lot of parking spaces in the country. There are a lot of people living, and it is still very popular. However, there are no toiletries (with towels) except for two soaps and two plastic cups in the room."

"The hotel is located in the center of Monterey. The pick-up room was small, but it had coffee and snacks. We arrived at 12:30 and asked if we could leave our luggage. They offered to drive us to the 17-Mile Drive and Carmel-by-the-Sea. The front desk initially said there would be a $20 fee for early check-in, but since we asked to store our luggage, they probably thought it was too much trouble and agreed to let us check in early for free. The room had a microwave and refrigerator, a separate shower and toilet, and large windows. The only downside was the lack of an elevator; we had to carry our luggage to the second floor ourselves, though it wasn't too high. The hotel was quiet and safe. We were very satisfied. There was no one at the front desk when we checked out; we just dropped the key into a box similar to a mailbox."

"Friendly staff, solid location, decent WiFi and generally clean and has the basics down. Better for sightseeing than for those staying in, I think. Quick things to note: they don't allow late checkouts, just fyi, but otherwise you just drop your keys in a box to check out. The vending machines are also located in an open area, which is nice for when I visited but could become an issue if it's raining... The balconies are really nice, and the location is insanely convenient. It's about 10ish minutes to walk to the aquarium, and it's a block (or half, if you go out the back!) to the waterfront. There's solid food and sightseeing options here too. They do have a decent parking lot, but there's a ton you can see in Monterey by walking, and this hotel is perfect for a lot of those. What's missing here: a common dining area and breakfast, for one. Rooms aren't cramped but most furnishing is basic. Don't expect anything fancy, essentially. All that said, it's a solid choice if you're actually going out and sightseeing vs spending tons of time here. And if you do, they have some pretty nice patios and some rooms have balconies overlooking a trail."

"Motel, convenient to eat around, there are many American fast food restaurants, and several big supermarkets, a distance from Monterrey Beach, a good place to rest on Highway 1. The picture is Wi-Fi password."

"Check-In was quick and easy. Room and grounds were very clean. Staff was helpful. A+++ This is the best hotel value, without the scams other hotels use. Recommend it to Family..."

"The scenery is nice, the climate is good, the hotel is OK, I will consider coming again when I have time."
