I check into the room and I realize that the room was for disabled people. I also realized the restroom looks nothing like the photos. The ac unit look like it had mold on it. And the room just smelt. So I go to the front desk and ask for a room cuange. And the guys says he cant. So them I ask for a refund and he says I cant. I dont know how to do that. Let me call my manager. He calls his manager. And apparently his managers phone is dead. So I wait there for thirty minutes and he says he cant do anything. So then I leave. And I never stayed at the hotel. I want my money back. I contacted the hotel nothing. I contact expedia they say the manager said no to a refund. I want my refund. Dont ever stay at this hotel.

At least it wasn't far from the beach.
Near a road with a lot of traffic, including noisy modified exhausts. Walls not really thick enough to dampen the noise. Shower water not adjustable temperature. Started out extremely hot finished extremely cold. It was a fairly doable walk to the beach though.

My husband and I found this affordable place for our honeymoon getaway and definitely would return. The staff were helpful and friendly. Sadly, the only thing we didn’t like was the parking areas were too tight and enclosed. We unfortunately were hit in the rear end as our car was parked. The desk clerk was kind enough to find evidence on a surveillance camera. Otherwise, come at your own risk.

Unsure about SureStay
Room was very small and poorly lit. The AC was very loud and musty smelling. Unfortunately the bathroom door did not close all the way so there was very little privacy. Beds were ok, but the floor was dirty. The parking was tight, but the breakfast was adequate.

We stayed in a suite. It was big enough for 4 adults, toddler and infant. My only issue was the shower head was leaking from the top and sprayed over the current and soaked the extra TP and my clothes that were sitting on the toilet. It’s definitely an option again. The breakfast options were quality, close to the beach, and decently priced. If you’re staying in Monterey, it’s going to be expensive, so for 1 night, it did the job.

Horrible experience
On the day of check in, there was an employee hosing down the hallway right outside our room, which was extremely noisy. I asked to be switched to a different room, but the front desk was rude. He just said they were fully booked and didn’t even apologize. However, the sign indicated that there were vacancies. Also, there were hairs on the bed. I kept calling but no one answered. The only reason that I could think of is the I checked in with my husband with a room with king size bed. The front desk clerk was visibly uncomfortable. I felt that we were being discriminated against by the staff. Overall it was a horrible experience. I wouldn’t recommend it at all.
