Overall a really good experience. Staff was attentive and friendly. We had an issue getting our TV working and they kindly took the time to help figure it out (the hdmi cable got loose accidently). Clean room and nice property. Recommend for anyone looking for a good place to crash while exploring Monterey.

I came to Monterey for the Laguna Seca races. I stayed four days at the arbor Inn. It was a comfortable stay with very few things that needed attention.

Spend your money elsewhere

I booked based on reviews!! Arrived late since we drove from out of town I had to hurry as I was told the doors are locked at 10pm. The man who helped me check in was kind. However, made up some California law about me asking for extra towels. (Spending the weekend) The room was so so. The bed was somewhat comfortable. The baseboards should be cleaned. The property is cute and well maintained. Here is why I give one star I sent a message to staff Friday night after I checked in to report we had no hot water to shower. We just drove 4 hours!! I had hot water in the sink. But no hot water to shower and the Next day no hot water again. The only response I received was a “k”no follow up or call. I asked for room service and I was told “no” I had my husband set trash cans outside to eliminate an odor in our room. Covid is over and at no time should a consumer be told No for basic requests! I will not return unfortunately. Great prices but you get what you pay for.

We were told it was the best room and cost accordingly. The room was large and had a small gas fireplace. But it was right on the public sidewalk and street. Very noisy and the public could see right in, even to the bathroom area, which didn’t have a door in the dressing area. It’s a Main Street so lots of loud traffic early and late.
