The Monterey Hotel

8/10 Good
"The Valet was great!!! My car would not start, and he spent time helping me and getting it started. I don't know his name, but he was on duty the morning of 08/22/2026. I really really appreciated all his help; He should get a raise!! The room was ok, but the carpets need some help along with the bathrooms."
