Decent stay
The marketing photo of the chapel is not the lobby, and I believe it’s only assessable for private event. Anyhow, the hotel comes with public hot bath, with one outdoor and sauna. Good for a long day walk. Room is kinda small for my use as I don’t have ample space to open up my luggage’s. Location is quite decent, easy assess to the locations I wanted to go

Great Stay at Monterey!
This hotel was clean, comfortable and well located. Staff was available whenever necessary and always helpful. Spa and sauna were really nice with massage services in-house. The cost of this hotel was incredibly reasonable for the quality provided.

Amazing hotel and service/ Japanese style beds
I originally left a Less than satisfied review because of the very firm mattress, but the hotel was pretty great so I feel the need to change it. The service is amazing. The breakfast buffet is wonderful. The beds are very, very firm and I did not think I was going to Be able to sleep on them at all! However, you’re so tired from all the walking I really didn’t have too much trouble. Pillows are down and stiff not my ideal pillow either but the service was amazing. The hotel is pretty; it’s a great location central to everything and walking distance to the market. I would stay here again.

The staff was incredibly helpful. I had many questions about the best way to get to certain locations, and how to access train stations. The staff provided colorful maps and marked where I needed to go, and the routes that the trains would take me on.
Also, the buffet breakfast was amazing!!!

Place was very beautiful, only bad thing was our restroom had a really bad odor. Not sure if it was the pipes but the smell was horrible. The room itself was clean.
