“Nice hotel”

Reviewed 24 April 2013

Got a deal on Hotwire to stay here. Nice hotel. Note it is not in Monterey but just outside in Seaside. There was some noise when we arrived due to construction but by the time we returned from dinner it was quiet. Nice pond outside with ducks and geese. Outside of Monterey but not far from the centre of town.... More

“Older property converted to Holiday Inn Express & no internet”

Reviewed 11 April 2013

I spend 6 months of the year on the road and having internet access at the hotel is important for me to be able to do my work. When checking in I asked if they had a good internet connection. Sean the night manager said as long as he has been there no one has complained. I spent the next... More

Dear W00d3y3 I am really sorry you had to experience this during your stay. We take our guest reviews very serious. I'm at a loss for words, due to the fact that we just rewired the whole property, putting up new access points on all floors. We haven't had a problem; until now. When you checked in, a map of...

“Motel style, older Holiday Inn Express”

Reviewed 8 April 2013

Pluses: Convenient location. Clean room and bathroom. The pool and spa were well kept and appealing. Minuses: older building with exterior, motel-style access. Small rooms that could do with renovation. We felt cooped up in the room by the fourth day and were happy to leave. Would not stay there again the next time we visit.

Dear kmcmt, Thank you for taking the time to write a review of your stay with us, the rooms are approximately 200 sqft; I am sorry to hear that the rooms did not accommodate your travel needs. Last year we renovated all the bathrooms in each room and we are currently undergoing minor renovations with new carpet and new beds.... More

“Exploring Monterey from a Solid Base”

Though the rooms in this hotel were smaller than we would have expected for a Holiday Inn Express, the hotel was clean and well maintained and served as a convenient base for exploring The Monterey Peninsula. It's location on Del Monte Blvd is just outside Monterey city and is officially Seaside, but it took only a few minutes to drive... More

“Convenient location”

Reviewed 7 April 2013 via mobile

Spent the night here on our way up the coast via Highway 1. Our room was extremely small and dark. We were on the back end/ground floor of the hotel. The room was clean, front desk help was ok and breakfast was alright as well. Would I stay again...probably not, especially for the price. A pretty high price for a... More

Dear saltedradish, Thank you for taking the time to write a review of your stay with us.

“Clean and Cheap”

Reviewed 31 March 2013

Free wifi is a plus. The room (a double) was clean with plenty of towels for the family. The location of the hotel is close to Cannery Row in Monterey. The front lobby people were friendly. However, on the night we stayed, it was extremely noisy and a lot of police sirens were going by. Don't know if it was... More

Thank you for leaving a review of your stay with us. I am happy to hear that you enjoyed the room and that the staff was friendly; I think they are pretty great myself; they do try hard to exceed guest expectations. As for the sirens, we are located within a block of the Seaside Police Department. I am sure... More

“Great location, but don't expect to walk to the beach.”

Reviewed 24 March 2013

This is a better than average HI Express, but a couple of caveats. First, as a family of four, the two bed units are small. The beds are doubles, not queens and even though that's only a few inches, it makes a difference for our family. The rooms are also smaller than I've come to expect. This had the four... More

Dear Steve V, Thank you for taking the time to write a review of your stay with us. I do apologize that you experienced problems with the television while you were here.

Stayed one night at this hotel in my trip across the California coast (Big Sur - SR1). I totally recommend this hotel. Clean rooms and comfortable beds. Free parking lot and an excellent continental breakfast. The hotel staff is friendly and can help you whatever you need.

Dear Rodrigo043 I am happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us; during on your journey down the California Coast. With so many beautiful breath taking views, what's not to love.
