"This area is chock-full of moderate-priced inns, so be sure to compare amenities to decide if it suits you. We find the location very convenient for reaching PacGrove & Carmel/Carmel Valley, as freeway access is quick. Days has an elevator so if you require accessibility, do request a room close by. This is an older motel but well maintained/updated, altho our bath had a loose shower handle that we reported upon leaving (it was functional, just "wiggly"). Thin walls as is common; but mgmt was...

"This motel is a great value. The rooms are completely renovated in a very minimalist way. We found it to be almost "institutional" in appearance. No carpet, no drapes, no pictures, no hooks or towel bars, no lamps. However, everything functioned well and was very clean. Beds were comfortable. I would have loved some softer lighting (lamps) AND some hooks in the bathroom. But clearly they are going for a no frills function. Bring ear plugs. Airport is very close."

"Communication with host was top notch. So many nice touches to home. From the specialized lighting, auto fireplace down to shoe changing stool. Bed, pillows, blankets were so comfortable and inviting after day at beach. Place was spotless. Kitchen appliances were modern and kitchen well stocked. Nice to have choice of coffee pods or drip coffee maker. Did I say beach steps away!
