Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We stayed at Nicely remodeled hotel room with jetted tub. Clean, warm, neat, quiet..... until heater/ac starts working. It's a tractor in the room that turns on and off as soon as you fall asleep. I wish I wouldn't turn it on. Oh well... I did at 4 am so I can sleep in comfortable hotel bed. The other thing that was kind of interesting ... to turn the shower on you hav to use man power... it was a challenge to pull the handle. It's probably easy fix for handy man but not for us as we only stayed a night. Oh well we liked the stay. We love Monterey. We will come back. ...... even if the tractor still there. :).

1) Leaky toilet. 2) Loud fridge. 3) Loud air conditioning. 4) Loud hotel guests walking above us. 5) Our blanket wasn’t warm enough, but the heater made too much noise. 6) My key didn’t work. 7) The hotel staff was rude. 8) No one ever cleaned our room. 9) The coffee machine leaked. 10) This was our 30th year staying at the Mariposa (because it’s only a block from our sister’s house and she hosts Thanksgiving every year). This hotel USED to be wonderful, but there is no pride of ownership and it is obviously run down. None of our family will ever stay there again.

It was just okay… but I won’t be back. The staff was so rude !! All the ladies who worked the front desk were extremely rude. The elevator door shuts on you. Even if you put your arm in front of it, it starts to shut so when using the thing to wheel luggage in, it’s super scary. But my main reason for not going back is , I left at 7:30am the day of check out (check out is at 11am) I was back at 9:30am to pack our stuff up and check out. My key wouldn’t work. I tried several times over and over. I went downstairs and they for whatever reason deactivated my key. So I go back upstairs and right when I turn the corner to my room, I see staff coming out of my room in like a hurry . Like she opened the door and came out then shut it!! It just didn’t sit right with me. Check out is at 11. Why is my key card not working and staff in my room at 9am??

This is a nicer motel, which makes sense for the pricing. I was looking for a clean place to sleep at an affordable price. This place is definitely on the older side with no extra amenities. However, it is a clean place to stay. If you plan on staying here for more than sleeping, I would recommend a different place. Pros: -clean room -reasonable price -cute area (lots of trees) -simple continental breakfast (basic cereal and bagels) -working heater and air conditioner Cons: -there was free WiFi but it didn’t reach our room -our room smelled heavily of bleach/cleaning agents but was fine once aired out -no cellular service -the pillows were thin and the only “blanket” were sheets (this didn’t bother us since we brought our own pillows and blanket

The toilet was leaking, and had been for some time judging by the wall and base boards. The wall had a tear in the drywall and it was wet. The bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Staff was nice, and they had robes and slippers available. But they really need to take care of lots of deferred maintenance.
