Comfort Inn Marina on the Monterey Bay

4/10 Poor

"There were long black hairs under the covers when I pulled them back. Was given a new smaller room and told they would adjust the price, but they didn’t…"

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Monterey Beachfront-Marina, CA

4/10 Poor

"The curtains were worn out, they didn't match either. The walls were so thin I could hear people outside talking. There was cracks on the walls. Towels were dingy. There was an alarm that kept going off outside. Needs a lot of updates."

Best Western Marina State Beach

4/10 Poor

"I was very disappointed that you all did not have a better system in place if outages occur. My family and I had a very long drive to your town and were extremely exhausted and we almost not able to get into a room. I had to plead with the front desk associate who was very nice and polite by the way. When we finally got into the room we were without power for a bit which was fine because we went to sleep for a bit and by the time we had woken up the power was back on. However, when we all needed to take showers there was no hot water. We were told that we would be contacted when it was working again but we were never contacted when we woke up early the next morning, it was still not working. We had to leave to go to my daughter's dorm to shower there with our little ones. This was incredibly inconvenient and not the experience we paid for. We should be given a refund since this stay did not meet the basic standards or meet our basic needs that should be provided during a hotel stay! We usually stay at Best Western and this was incredibly disappointing!"

Inn At Moss Landing Point

10/10 Excellent

"Great customer service, free parking, super clean facility (better than a lot of high end hotels I’ve been to), and the nightly popcorn was a great touch. Hotel being right next to the road didn’t bother me at all since I sleep with white noise anyways. Only complaint is the water pressure in the shower was a bit too high. But overall I would recommend this hotel and would come back again."

Captain's Inn at Moss Landing

10/10 Excellent

"Our room overlooking the river was as good as expected, the shared deck was nice. The kitchen has a microwave, toaster, communal fridge, ice packed ready to go, and all the cutlery and crockery you need. We got dinner in the Thai place up the road (splendid)and had leftovers the next day, everything we needed for our take away dinner was there. Breakfast bar is a bit scant, but we weren't there for the food. Lovely little place, would certainly go again if I could afford it, this was a special occasion and it was perfect.. Beautifully located to explore Elkhorn Slough and whale watch out of Moss Landing and a beautiful beach is a short walk away."
