Holiday Inn Express at Monterey Bay by IHG
The room is small and not well maintained. Even no cups for water or to brush teeth. The worst Holiday’s Inn we have experienced:

Lovers Point Inn
Clerk was informative and clear about what was welcomed and what is not welcome out of total respect for all guests. Also a good thing. Parking was meh. A bit inadquet for larger vehicles but otherwise plentiful for cars. Ground floor has ocean sounds but lacks views and I don't know how many floors ...

Olympia Lodge
The heat didn’t work, there was very little water pressure in the shower, the sink was clogged, and the toilet plunger didn’t seal, so the water ran into the toilet constantly. And, the breakfast was a croissant and a cookie in a box.

Everything! The staff, the amenities, the extra activities and overall atmosphere of the hotel. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we were so happy and taken care of. We would definitely stay here again on our next visit ♥️
