All of Cannery Row including the Aquarium are in easy walking distance. Our King room was light and roomy. Price was very reasonable for the location. Staff was friendly and helpful. More

My husband and I stayed here for one night while for a little romantic getaway while our daughter was with the in-laws. We saw many good reviews, so we found a good deal on priceline. We were very pleased with our stay here. The room was modern and cozy yet spacious. The bathrooms were classy with basin sinks. We stayed... More

Thank you so much, what a great review! We're so glad that you were able to spend your getaway with us and so glad that you enjoyed yourselves. (Personally, I love the cinnamon rolls so I'm with you on that!) We're really sorry about the hottub, unfortunately accessibility issues forced us to shut it down last fall. But I'm really... More

Easy walk to Cannery Row and to restaurants. Rooms are clean, front desk is friendly. Breakfast is good. If your room is right outside the elevators though, you can hear everything going on in the hall. Note on parking: Yes it is free, however, be forwarned that the parking lot is TINY. I am not sure how people get their... More

Thanks so much for your review. I apologize about the tight parking, and hope it wasn't too much of an inconvenience. Unfortunately space is at a premium in Monterey - thanks for finding a way to work with this. We hope you'll come and stay with us again. More

The location of this hotel is great. A block from Cannery row, two blocks from the Aquarium, a short stroll to Fisherman's Wharf. There is free parking which is nice. The rooms are nice. The design of the hotel is the only problem. We stayed on the third floor of the hotel. You take the elevator to the third floor,... More

Stayed here with two small kids. Had the room with the couch -seems to be bigger than rooms without. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was great, rooms were clean, parking was free, everything was easy. The location is a short walking distance to everything and right across the street from the bike path - we brought bikes... More

We were looking for a hotel close to the Monterey Aquarium so we could walk. The Holiday Inn Express was perfect and offered underground parking. Parking in Monterey is a problem otherwise. We were visiting just after Labor Day and they have an antique car show in town with hundreds of vintage vehicles to view. (Great!) The hotel breakfast is... More

The hotel was just great: easy to find, easy parking, great staff, the room was nice and big and updated. They offered a managers drink in the evening - no ticket required so you could have one or more glasses of wine plus cheese and crackers. Our room had an ocean view, the courtyard in the hotel was beautiful. They... More

Check in was easy, the desk clerk was courteous.The hotel is decorated so cute. It's such a nice change from those boring neutral hotels everywhere else. The bed was enormous and the pillows had just enough fluff. The hotel is in perfect walking distance to the Cannery Row and many restaurants. The best part is that you get free drinks... More

The staff were super nice and accomodating. The snobs who complain about the quality of the FREE wine should be shot. I'm not a whine person, but I tried all varieties and found them to be good, considering the price. The location is great. Parking is a little tight, but at least its free and in a safe area. The...
