Pros
Dog-friendly rooms available with dedicated pet amenities
Historic Victorian architecture with period furnishings
Free Boyd's organic coffee provided in all rooms
Walking distance to Tuesday Farmer's Market
Cons
No air conditioning due to building's historic status
Street noise may be audible in some rooms
“The Monterey Hotel has a prime downtown location, near the wharf and aquarium; its historic architecture is a unique draw, even if some rooms are a trek to reach. I found the combination of Victorian charm and a pet-friendly policy appealing, though some reported service inconsistencies are worth noting. For those prioritizing location and character, it presents a compelling option.”
