Portola Hotel & Spa at Monterey Bay
"I wouldn't come back to this hotel. It's very loud in the hallways with kids and the worse thing is the seagulls screaming all night. It's unbearable. I pre-paid months in advance for 7 night with my mom. We had a balcony room. It was so loud and I was woken up often. NEVER again."

Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa
"Good location for route 1 , bars and restaurants and the harbour but long walk to cannery row area. car parking charge is excessive and unnecessary in my opinion. Breakfast not included and restaurant we thought was expensive so did not use it and walked 5 mins into town. Pool nice touch"
