Room was very basic but had everything we needed, including a fan. There was no ac in our room, but with the window open and the fan on, it was quite comfortable. It was about a 10 min walk to Fishermans wharf where we were able to catch the free trolley into cannery and the aquarium. After a long day, the hot tub was very relaxing. Overall, would stay here again if I find myself back in Monterey.
