Residence Inn By Marriott Sand City Monterey

"What a great new Property! Of course it was very clean! The staff were amazing! My husband and I had a 1king suite bedroom. It also had a pull out queen bed in living room area! We had a gorgeous wrap around balcony with a great view!! The location is in a superb area. Parking is only $15 per night. Close to the beach, about a 5-10 min walk. Next to a Costco and many other stores. We live in Las Vegas and love to travel to Monterey. We will definitely be back! "
