The hotel was beautiful! Right at the middle of downtown Monterey bay. We loved how we were surrounded by so many food choices within a walking radius! The room we stayed at was also nice. It was a historic room, so seeing the whole setup of it alongside the design of the furniture, fireplace and even picture frames of certain historical pieces, were a really awesome touch! I do suggest, if you do decide to go, park at the parking structure on the same street that is right across the hotel. It is $8 per day from 9AM-6PM then after 6 PM, parking is free. This. Was. A. Game. Changer. As I didn’t want to pay $30 parking for valet at the hotel, their only option, per day. Overall, I would recommend staying at this hotel and I’d definitely consider coming back!
