"전형적인 복도형 모텔식 호텔이라 처음엔 불안했지민, 몬테레이의 특성상 많은 호텔이 비슷한 형식임을 알고 정감이 생겼음. 친절한 프론트 매니저와 깔끔한 객실 모두 좋았음. 심플한 아침 식사도 가족같은 분위기로 편안했어요."

"The room was clean and very large. Loved the vaulted wood ceiling. Wish there were lamps next to the bed for reading. Ceiling lights were ok but then you had to get out of bed to turn them off rather than rolling over and turning off bedside lamp."
