The proximity to Moss Landing and Monterey was really nice for the price. The room was a bit dirty, but nothing that was outrageous. I’d definitely stay here again if I have to travel on a budget.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was an okay stay for $85. Anyhow, the bathroom door knob was loose, and the bathroom and room seemed as if they weren't properly cleaned, tub was dirty with stains, walls had nasty stains and the floor was dusty. They won't provide you with towels, sheets, etc. at night. Lastly, the sink was clogged. Other than that the stay was decent on a budget. I'd stay again if I'm ever on a budget again.

It was not horrible but could have been better. Staff was not available to reach for extra amenities (e.g., toilet paper or extra towels). For the price, it was to be expected. We got what we paid for.

Go to the Inn in moss landing instead

I didn’t even get the room I had reserved. I reserved a queen room and ended up in a king bed the tv was broken. So we couldn’t even watch tv. Only two towel and the office was never open to request for more towel. I couldn’t even leave my room keys inside

Very dirty

The hotel was very dirty. Toilet looked as if it hadn't been cleaned in weeks. There was a big hole in the ceiling of the bathroom. The shower curtain was moldy at the bottom. The blankets on the bed were not washed but the sheets were clean. The wires for the TV and cable box were hanging down in a waded mess above the table. Not a very good neighborhood. And people were sleeping in their cars in the parking area. I will personally never stay here again. Our friend that traveled with us had a room as well. Their room was even worse than ours. Hopefully they can get it together and clean the place up.

We were warned that check-in was no later than 11pm. Nice guy at the front desk, looks like it's a family run business. The parking lot is almost full. The room is nice, it is clear that the repair is not the cheapest. But dirty. Dirty sticky floor, rubbish and hair in the bathroom. For 4 people only 3 or 4 small towels. The beds are very comfortable. The heater cannot be set to maintain the temperature: it either blows and is very hot or cold if it is turned off. There is no coffee machine. We only needed to sleep so ok

Stressful experience

I booked for two nights. However, when I came back for my second nights stay, I was locked out of my room and someone else opened the door. My room was given away and my items thrown away. I was only given a refund for one night to comp my lost items and given another room. Check out was also problematic as no one was at the desk and no one was responding to the call button or my phone calls. There were also no instructions for quick check out. I had to contact a hotels.com agent to make sure no repercussions would happen if I dropped my key in the mailbox. I ended up running late for work as I had to sit around for half an hour trying to check out. All these problems plus my issues with the rooms: toilet seat wasn’t attached, the towels smelled and were an off color, and floors and surfaces left my feet and hands covered in dirt (I hope it was only dirt). The second room had the deadbolt ripped off, the fire alarm was ripped out, and the floors/other surfaces and towels were still had an odd smell. I rubbed my feet together before laying in bed and dirt started rubbing off (this happened in both rooms and both times after I had already showered and washed my feet). I know it was my choice to stay at a cheaper accommodation, but I did not expect anything to this degree.

Immediately after checking in and going into the room we saw roaches. From being on the wall, the tv, under the bed area, in the mini fridge, and next to ac. We tried to call the desk after having called them on the way to hotel just 30 mins prior which was an issue too, couldnt hear when they answered, due to noise like someone had the phone shoved right up the speaker of a tv, the number on their site and then they called back after hanging up on me but they used someone elses number completely. But they didnt answer on either numbers after we tried to call to complain or see if they had a different room entirely but they shut all light offs after we checked in so no one was at desk area. Overall just disgusting
