Underwhelmed with Parking & Breakfast
Hotel was very nice. Parking basically required us to valet for $22 plus tip otherwise you have to find a spot on the street. Breakfast is not included and it is nothing special. Same setup as a Hampton Inn but costs over $30/couple. It was a convenient location for a late flight arrival and starting point for Monterey trip the next morning.
