Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Dank, dismal, decrepit, dilapidated, depressing. I was snookered in by the deceptive title “Monterey beachfront-Marina”. This property is not in Monterey on the marina beachfront. It is 15 minutes away from the town of Monterey, in the small town of Marina, across the street from an enormous sand dune and luxury resort. No waterfront in sight, no beach access near hotel. State beach is a ten minute walk. More like a $65 room rather than a $200 room.
The grounds are filthy, the pool is covered and non operable. All of the exterior stair railings are peeling with rust and rot. The door to the room does not fit the frame, with gaps all around and the u shaped security latch is broken and halfway unscrewed from doorframe which is broken and cracked with rusted nails protruding from casement molding. (It appears that door was kicked in at some point) The toilet tank lid was completely cracked in half. The room was dusty and there was only one towel provided for a King bed room. Newer sink. Newer fiberglass bathtub insert. No stopper in the tub. The curved shower curtain rod was sagging due to improper installation, so the curtain did not hang to the edges, resulting in water all over floor while showering. Towel rack above the toilet is down sloping so anything on it falls into toilet. Bathroom door hinges are completely rusted. Only one bedside table. The mattress was sagging and had a 2” foam topper. Pillows were undersized squares full of foam chunks. Lots of road noise.
