False advertisement

While booking the room through Hotels.com they offered a bay view for little extra price and we opted that. But when we reached there the front desk told us they are sorry and everything was taken and we ended up with a roadside view room . We wanted to stay in Monterey only for this reason and they ruined it They can’t charge more for a bay view if they don’t reserve and keep it

I was disappointed at this hotel. The location is beautiful, but the cost is not straightforward. You need to budget another $150 per night approximately from what you think you reserved your room for, as they have so much extra add-on unexpected required costs (amenity fees, taxes, parking, etc.). They also first gave me a smaller room than I had booked. I insisted on the larger Premiere room that I booked. Furthermore, the service was almost nonexistent. Twice I asked for assistance in the room or service to the room, and they never showed up. So, it a number of ways it felt like one was taken advantage of at the hotel. Other than the beautiful location on the water, it was highly disappointing.

Front desk and cleaning staff not communicating

I arrived early and was told my room was ready. I opened the door to find the room hadn’t been cleaned. I walked back up to the lobby and was told to wait 15 mins…I waited 30, went to the desk and they gave me a new set of keys to a different room, which also wasn’t ready. At this point I had to go to a meeting. Upon return 4 hrs later…my room was ready and they offered me additional cash on my wine card…great if you’re staying on the property, not helpful if you have plans off property
