The staff was very friendly. The major ding for this property is that the room was not cleaned. We found a thong from a previous guest in our bed. the bottom sheet was not tucked in all the way which is why we looked in the first place. We took pictures and brought them to the front desk. They did put us in another room and told us the manager would contact us the next day. The manager never followed up. If the manager would have followed up, I would not have given a bad review.

It was super cute. Looked like it should have s bunch of classic cars out front. We went inside and it was so modern and adorable. We absolutely loved the 2 room set up with all the kids we had with us. If we travel to NM again we will for sure be staying here.

The staff were very freindly and helpful. I decided not to stay, and they gave a refund when they didnt have to. If I were to book again I would insist on staying in the remodeled section which is very nice.

This is the only time that a motel did not honor my confirmed booking. I was informed on the day I arrived that I would need to move across town to another motel in the middle of my 4 night stay because the motel had received a big contract to host an event. This did not work for me because I chose the hotel based on location since it was within walking distance of a conference I was attending. I informed the staff that I was not happy and they said Oh well. I would not stay there again. I feel their business practices are unethical.

Loved this place! We're on a cross-country trip along Route 66 and I've wanted to stay in an R66 iconic hotel but was a bit nervous to do so, being accustomed to certain standards. Well, Monterey Motel did not disappoint! In fact, it was probably nicer than any of the Hilton, Marriott, or IHG chains we've stayed at along the way. Got the family room so we could all have our own space. Room had tiled floors (love that) and comfy beds and was fresh & modern inside. Staff was very friendly and accomodating too. Would definitely stay here again.

Our stay at Motel Monterrey was such a pleasant surprise! The room we booked was a cool mix of a classic motel room and a bunk house vibe. It was a refreshing change from the usual setup of two queens and a sofa bed you find in most places. What really made it special was how much the kids loved it. They were thrilled to have their own space with six bunks, each equipped with a privacy curtain, light, and outlet to charge their devices. It added a fun twist to our stay and made them feel right at home. The room itself was clean, comfy, and had just about everything we needed. It’s clear they put thought into the design, and it paid off. Next time we're in Albuquerque, we'll definitely be booking Motel Monterrey again. It's got that eclectic charm and family-friendly feel that we really enjoyed. Highly recommend it for families looking for a unique stay!

Very nice hotel, beds were all comfy. We had the bunk bed and king suite. My teens and 7 year old loved it. Staff was great for check in and out. I had to call in for directions and help with check in. Only thing is I didn’t know you had to check in at another hotel if you made it in after a certain time.
