Top hotels in Monterey Vista
Stargazer Hotel
Was notified at 3pm room was ready. Upon arrival room was NOT ready and took an additional hour to complete. Being upset with 4 fussy kids this may have "rushed" cleaner. Drawers were not emptied from previous stayers my kids had to find personal and sexual toys in their drawers.

Mariposa Inn & Suites
Worst customer service at the front desk with the young man that I couldn’t get his name. The room was still filthy. Hair inside the shower, is never a good sight! I will never stay at this place, nor recommend it to anyone. Let’s not talk about the breakfast that was offered.

The Inn at 1252
Room was extremely tiny and cramped. Very basic. Nothing nice.had to go down an crappy run down steep stair case to get to the room. Felt like it was really only worth $85 a night not $160.
