Nice hotel, liked that the beach is just 2 mins away, also loved that they had fire pits on the property it was nice to sit out there at night and enjoy that. Breakfast was good had alot to choose from. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Only reason I didnt give it a 5 star is because the first room we went to when checking in was not ready/cleaned so we had to go back and get another room also microwave didnt heat. Other than that I would stay here again.

This Best Western is located walking distance from Marina State Beach. It is quiet and cozy, with fire pits and a decent outdoor area. The rooms have recently been renovated and were quite nice although the bathrooms are not as modern. Towels are thin and pillows are a little sad, but quite in line for the price point. The drive into Monterey was easy, and we found some great food in Marina and Seaside that saved us from the traffic and chaos of Monterey st. I would stay here again (or across the street at the Resort if I splurge!)

Not sure if the hotel has new owners but it’s not the same as it was since the last time I stayed here. I stayed here for 3 nights and my room was never cleaned. The toilet was wobbly, no water pressure in the shower. On the plus side the location is perfect that’s about it.

I liked the location and the price. I think you are short staffed on the housekeeping side. People couldn't check in at 3pm. But we still had to leave my 11 am.
