Monterey Peninsula Inn

8/10 Good
"The mattress was a little too soft for our comfort. It kept feeling like we were going to fall off the edge of the bed. There was a small water leak in the bathroom so it left a musty smell. Told the manager and he was going to check on it right away. I like that! Also, I'm a perfectionist when it comes to outdoor landscaping, and it could use some improvements in that area. Not a deal breaker tho."

"I had an amazing stay. The building itself was beautiful with high ceilings and friendly staff. There are plenty of places to eat close by and the hotel is not too far from Cannery Row. There is only street parking available but I had not problem finding parking nearby for overnight. If you like staying in hotels with charm and history I would highly recommend this location."
