That's a good place for a value with convenient location, clean rooms and all needed basic amenities. Friendly stuff and pretty quiet outside. The only thing to keep in mind is that place is relatively old and has a poor noise isolation. You're going to hear almost everything what is going on in your neighbor rooms like TV, loud conversations and how people move in their rooms. Just be ready for that.

This is my second stay at Monterey Pines. I rebooked at Monterey Pines because my first experience was great. My second experience was good. Very clean room. I felt safe there and I stayed for three nights. The only drawback was the room next to mine had an endless stream of people coming in and out, laughing,partying, and extremely loud for the late time of night. This was on my second night of stay.

Andy was very friendly at the front desk upon check in, check in was fast and easy. The room and bathroom was very clean and well maintained. This hotel is taken care of a lot more than some of the others around the hotels. I will definitely be looking forward to staying here again!

Very good for the price

First the positives: Andy at the front desk provided wonderful customer service, the room was very clean, firm bed, and the water pressure was great! Cons: minor repairs to the room needed (tub and floor, limited electrical outlets for charging devices, and the walls were paper thin (with a fully booked motel). Also, location has spotty internet, even when using the motels WiFi. All in all, it was good for one night.
