Arbor Inn Monterey

Arbor Inn Monterey

10/10 Excellent
"Great stay, the staff was very nice and helpful. Great location as it is close to the outdoor mall with restaurants and a movie theater. Also close to fast food places. I like the patio chairs outside the rooms so you can still relax in the fresh air. Would stay here again."
