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.

Solid location, room, and amenities... Mini-fridge doesn't have a freezer compartment, which would've been nice to have, as well as an AC unit where the temperature can be fine tuned VS cold and colder. Cost is a lot better than other places.
