Overall disappointing ; I did not enjoy my stay at this hotel. -Terrible Wi-Fi and terrible internet connection that continuously dropped off. - Shower had so much water pressure but w/ only half of a glass shower door like in Europe, water sprayed alot outside the shower creating a mess to clean ...

The Monterey Hotel
Location is excellent. Cleanliness of room was not great. Rooms need a thorough cleaning and refresh. Room furniture is all nicked up. There was no room to put a toiletry bag in the bathroom.
