Motel 6 Monterey Downtown

“Did the job, could use more attention to aesthetics, management very nice, price was reasonable”

There are many hotels along this road, many of them highly priced yet older and not always great looking. I was in Monterey for a workshop and wanted to keep the price under $250 a night, which was a challenge. I called Fisherman's Cove and they let me come see a room before committing.

There are many hotels along this road, many of them highly priced yet older and not always great looking. I was in Monterey for a workshop and wanted to keep the price under $250 a night, which was a challenge. I called Fisherman's Cove and they let me come see a room before committing. The couple running it was very courteous. There is a Keurig-type coffee machine in the small lobby. There is an ice machine, but no dining area or pool; it's an old-style motel. The rooms have been redone, with new toilets and faucets. It's not well lit (LEDs would be better IMO) and there's no ceiling fan, which my husband would've objected to had he been there. There is a microwave and refrigerator, and a standing-on-the-floor A/C/heat unit. There is no closet, only open shelving in the bedside tables. No luggage rack; I don't use one anyway. There's a perfect spot/cubby for an armoire, yet there's just a mirror there. A full-length mirror would be great there if we are to have no clothes storage. The sofa and table is a nice and useful touch, but you have to reach behind the sofa for an outlet. There are USB ports in other areas. Decor-wise, it's not as pretty as management photos would suggest. The rooms could use some art, more color/pattern, and a floor length mirror. The solid-color curtain over the window was a "shortie" (stops at the window ledge) and was ripped. Parking spaces are very tight; once I had to get in through my passenger door and slide over, and I'm not an overly large woman. There is no parking charge and it seemed there was enough spaces. It was surprisingly quiet given it's right off the road. There's an Asian restaurant next door whose scents waft over. Overall, it was a safe and comfortable stay, the bed and linens were average, I had the necessities I needed. The staff was very nice, and the price was reasonable for the area.
