The hotel is conveniently located near the John Steinbeck museum but may not be ideal due to the transient people in the area. It is close to some restaurants, although not within walking distance from good dining options. The rooms are equipped with handicap facilities, a fridge, microwave, and a comfortable bed but had some cleanliness issues like razor blade bugs. The service lacks quick decision-making without the manager, and there was a delay in promised calls. The dining options are limited to cereals, and the facilities are basic.

The hotel has a modern feel in the rooms with comfortable amenities, but could use some improvement in service orientation. The location is convenient with nearby shopping centers, yet electrical outlets may need maintenance. Dining offers basic options, and the facilities are adequate.

The hotel is conveniently located near the John Steinbeck museum and offers great value for money. The rooms are equipped with a handicap shower, comfortable bed, fan, fridge, and microwave, making them very practical and comfy. The service could be more proactive in assisting guests, especially in such a large complex, though they assured me the manager would follow up. The location is excellent, close to the coast without the high coastal prices but struggled a bit with faulty outlets. The dining included regional bread, which was a nice touch. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
