Monterey Peninsula Inn

Monterey Peninsula Inn

8/10 Good
"These are motel-style units. The room I was in had been fairly recently renovated, and was very basic, but clean and comfortable enough inside. The showerhead is very low; I'm not quite 6' and had to stoop to wash my hair. The front desk is only open from 9am-9pm. Outside of those hours there is no staff available except for a phone number for emergencies. If you need anything else, you have to wait until 9. I tried calling multiple times before arrival to adjust my reservation (including well after 9am), and nobody ever answered the phone or returned my voicemail. I had to go to the front desk in person when I arrived in town, by which time it was too late to change my reservation. There is also a surprise credit card processing fee if you pay at the property. I did not see this disclosed anywhere in the booking process. It ended up costing me an extra $25 more than what hotels.com showed my total "with taxes and fees" would cost. Overall the motel was adequate but unremarkable. It was cheaper than most other options around when I booked, but the amenities were very minimal relative to the price. There are other inns and motels in the area that look like they might provide better value if they're available."
