Monterey Bay Inn
The room had a very nice view and was spacious (huge bathroom). Location was walking distance to cannery row and aquarium. Right on the beach, you can walk down to the water. Lovely fountain outside. Nice hot tub on the 4th floor overlooking the water.

It’s clean, nicely maintained, has covered parking (there is a fee), contactless check in/out, and walkable ...
