This is a nice place to stay downtown, and not too far away from the water. It's a lot bigger than you think, with plenty of rooms. They have complimentary breakfast and wine/cheese hour, which are nice touches. Parking is available but you need to pay for it.
Large room, good breakfast, good location. Room at night was a little warm as there was no A/C, but it wasn't awful. Would definitely visit again.

The fireplace in the room was a nice touch. The main house is cute, but I don’t think there are rooms in it. You’re really staying in a motel with like 50 rooms. The carpets and chairs are old and dingy in the room. I tried to turn on the A/C, but it would not work. After looking around for a while I never found an A/C or heater vent in the bedroom. I’m not sure what the thermostat was connected to. I asked the desk at checkout, but they just said they would check with maintenance.

The property was great and we loved the Cheese and Wine as well as breakfast.
Our sink did have some mold in the pipes (room 173) and I did not like that Parking was paid (please just include the price for parking in the room price).
The hotel is a little older (as the name suggests haha) but offers a great value for the buck, especially if you take the location into the account. The parking was super easy and we really enjoyed the breakfast. Would stay again!
Room was spacious, bed was comfy. We were on the bottom floor looking at the outdoor patio area. Surroundings were beautful and clean. Each room has its own patio with chairs and table to enjoy sitting outside. And a fireplace was perfect touch for our adult only getaway
We have been staying at this property for the last 10 years, every time we visit monterey. The main reason we like this property is how easy it is to walk down to Cannery Row and the Sardine Factory restaurant. The rooms are lovely and clean. They offer a nice cheese and wine happy hour, and have a good breakfast.
Close to everything! We parked our car and didn’t move it again until it was time to leave! Food, the wharf, aquarium, shopping, beaches all within walking distance! Great breakfast, and friendly staff
Wonderful stay at this well-located property. Walking distance to everything you need. Nice staff, great breakfast, clean and attractive grounds. A very good value!
Our room faced Foam Street. I specifically asked for a quite room and was told the traffic was gone after 7 pm. Not true, cars went by up until 12:00 AM. The morning was the worst. I could hear every car that went by from 4:00 AM, when the garbage trucks started and I could not sleep! Exhausting trip.
Cute little bed and breakfast. Large rooms with fireplaces and reasonably priced. Excellent breakfast and wonderful staff. The wine and cheese hour was also nice. It’s located on a busy one-way street but it was very quiet at night. The location is great and close to all things Cannery Row, Fisherman’s Wharf and even downtown Monterey. Easy check-in and check-out and a late check-put time too. Last night we had to bring our dog and that was eight $30 add-on. My only complaint is that the maid went into our room twice with our “do not disturb” sign on. I had my lunch in there and she tossed it because she assumed we had checked out. Highly recommend!
Perfect base to explore the Monterey Peninsula. The aquarium and restaurants and shops along Fisherman’s wharf within an easy walk. Attached parking garage very convenient. Room very spacious and comfortable with gas fireplace and a little balcony. Breakfast choices were excellent and staff friendly and helpful

We had such a nice stay here,,, I love the breakfasts and afternoon wine and cheese.
And, the rooms are roomy with a big fireplace and the fire makes it so cozy, just loved it …
Not to mention the convenient parking and just a block from Cannery Row… Great Place to stay.
