Skyline Forest Hotels, Monterey

"The good: The room was spotless and very clean. Excellent location- walking distance to all the main shops and restaurants. Areas of opportunity: We so happened to come during a huge heat wave and there is no AC. Asked the front desk about a fan and they didn’t have any fans. Also asked about a water dispenser or anything to refill my water bottle and they suggested the convince store adjacent to the hotel. The breakfast was ok, sort of what you’d expect for a free hotel breakfast. Nothing exciting but did the trick. Overall, would stay here again based on the location and cleanliness. Just make sure you don’t visit during a heatwave. "

"They told us they were gonna upgrade us because they didn’t have any rooms in the first floor. They gave us a room for disabled people, and we are not disabled no table and chairs there it was awful."

"Everything was great! "

" I had a really enjoyable stay at the Monterey Bay Inn. First, the ocean view is absolutely amazing — waking up to the sound of the waves, seagulls, and sea lions was such a peaceful experience. One of my favorite touches was the complimentary breakfast delivered right to the room every morning. It felt like a little luxury that made the stay extra special. The location is perfect. It’s just steps away from Cannery Row, with easy access to shopping, dining, scenic walking trails, bike paths, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium. The room itself was spacious, especially the bathroom with two sinks, and I loved that the bed was positioned facing the ocean view. There are a few things to keep in mind. Parking is $25 per night. The rooftop hot tubs (which overlook the ocean) are beautiful but small — they only fit about four people, and they were always full when I tried to use them. I ended up using the second-floor hot tub, which doesn’t have a view, and still had to wait about 20 minutes for space. You can tell the building has been there a long time, though some upgrades have been made. The elevator made a loud noise every time it closed, and the hallway on the 3rd and 4th floors felt slightly sloped in the middle. the front desk staff were very kind and accommodating — they even allowed us to keep our car parked until 4pm after checkout, which was really helpful. Overall, despite a few minor inconveniences, I would definitely stay here again for the views and location "

"We had everything to relax in just one place! We’ll come back for sure. "

"Centrally located for beaches, aquarium and shops."

"Good"

"The views were spectacular. Dining in the Pacific Edge Restaurant was good. Be prepared to walk several steps & uphill to get to the rooms & parking, but it's worth it!"

"Clean place and in a great location. "
