Hyatt Vacation Club At Highlands Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great views of the Pacific and well equipped townhouse."

The Monterey Hotel

8/10 Good

"Parking is off property, only have valet on weekends, historic rooms are smaller than normal rooms, toilet was weird sounded like it was air injected. Sink faucet was low pressures, shower was hard to go from faucet to shower. Older walls and ceiling heard everything above and outside intend hall way., sounding like a wooden dance hall above our room. Other than those things the stay was okay, I would stay again in another part of the hotel. Lil pricey for standard historic rooms. "

Motel 6 Marina, CA - Monterey

8/10 Good

"This is a good place to stay. The rate is fantastic, and it is close to many places of interest to me. Checking in was a dream; the man who was there on Tuesday May 12 was kind, friendly, and helpful. The reservations system is a problem. Tried to reserve by phone, and the rep was taking a long time, so when we were disconnected before finishing I gave up and went on line instead. The phone reservation was NOT completed and NOT confirmed. Upon my arrival, informed that 2 reservations were made in my name. Next day my bank messaged that my card was declined (!) twice (!!) Both charges were from Motel 6, but 1 in CA, 1 in AZ. Very fishy. My last night there was rough (not the Motel's fault) so around 5 am I called the reservation system again, to extend my stay and not worry about checkout time. The staff did NOT get that information. Housekeeping started knocking at my door while I was trying to rest (not their fault.) The manager came to my door, clearly upset, around noon. I explained that I'd extended my stay. She treated me like a criminal and did not apologize for the error. I stayed 3 hours over, and paid for a full 24 hours. It would have been nice if they'd acknowledged that, especially due to the errors between the motel and their reservation system, which resulted in my being disturbed by the staff several times. Most upsetting: 2 more declined charges from my bank, this time from Motel 6 Columbus. Would stay again, but be very wary of reservation system"

Hyatt Carmel Highlands

2/10 Terrible

"I’m usually pretty easygoing with hotels, and I’m used to them being at least reasonably quiet, but the walls and ceilings here were unbelievably thin. You could hear every single footstep from the room above, including constant walking and stomping late into the night. Between that and the smoke detector flashing a bright light every 30 seconds directly into the room, it was extremely difficult to get any sleep. I’ve honestly never experienced noise this bad at a hotel before. The check-in process was also frustrating. After getting our room keys from the front desk, we were sent to another desk to get a parking pass. That second stop turned into a timeshare sales pitch where we had to repeatedly say no just to get the parking pass we actually came for. It felt very pushy and honestly left a bad first impression, especially considering how much we were already paying to stay there. The restaurant experience was equally disappointing. We walked up for breakfast and politely asked if there was availability for two people. The response we got, very coldly, was: “$130 per person, with mandatory gratuity.” That didn’t even answer the question we asked, and the interaction made us feel completely unwelcome. We ended up leaving and spending that same $130 per person at another restaurant where we were actually treated like guests instead of inconveniences. One smaller complaint is that the TVs are not smart TVs. After long days out, it would’ve been nice to relax and watch Netfl"
