Staff was very friendly and helpful. We learned about the history of the Merritt House from the owner and her grsndson, Tanner. It is within walking distance to Cannery Row, museums, and the aquarium.
Rooms were clean and nicely decorated. We will definitely stay there again when in the Monterey area.

8.8/10 Excellent! (1,067 reviews)
The pictures are deceiving. The room was very run down and old. Stains on the upholstered chair and the shower was questionable. Very limited parking and if you don't get a spot on the property you have to park around the corner.
