Not Bad

This hotel was a classic case of "you get what you pay for." It was VERY conveniently located in relation to the Monterey Bay aquarium and even had a special 2 day pass for the price of a 1 day. the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The downsides to this hotel was that the walls are PAPER THIN. I could hear everytime someone else was leaving their room or walking down the stairs, which often included excited children going to the aquarium. Also, there was a concert going on behind the hotel that night and I felt like i was there in the back row. Also, it is close to the airport and the plane noises are VERY loud. The planes stopped around 10:30 and started up again around 6 am. I probably wouldnt stay here again, but for the price i payed for it i can't complain too much about the visit.

A quiet gem!

Enjoyed this place. The only small downside is that it is close to the airport. But the planes seemed to stop around 10PM.. The rooms were clean and bright. The grounds are immaculate! It looks like they have updated the rooms recently. The breakfast was awesome! actually had eggs and sausage along with everything else..Nice! To top it all off the staff was fantastic and friendly. I will be back!!!

Perfect but needs listening skills

This place was so nice. The rooms were clean and cute. The complimentary breakfast was way better then I ever expected. The only downfall was the front office man. The outlet in the bathroom was broken so not only wouldn't the hotel's hairdryer work, but neither would mine. When I brought this to the attention on the front desk man he proceeded to explain to me that I was doing it wrong. After semi arguing over it for a couple minutes I told him that whatever the problem was I just wanted to bring it to their intention but I said I didn't need it fixed during my stay. I just wanted them to be aware of it for the next guests. Later that evening he sent another man to replace the hairdryer, which was not the issue in the first place. The man who came in to look at it saw that I was right and I then told him again that I didn't want it fixed during my stay. Although none of these problems were a big deal it just added on to my frustration with the front dest man. He didn't listen to any of my questions when I arrived and then blamed me for the difficulties with the switch. He just needed to learn to listen.

Chris' whale watching tours. If you go on their website you can get $2 off your tour (per person I will add) and it was a tour of a lifetime

Simple!

I like that the location of the Comfort Inn was near a lot of the beaches. But the only thing about the place is the walls were too thin and you could hear exactly what the next room was doing. Overall, it good for the location, but if you want to get some peace and quite, than not the best spot.
