"Enjoy daily room, service, and the breakfast"

"We stayed at El Castell Motel in Monterey, CA for our daughter’s graduation and had a great experience! As a large family of five—including three very tall teenage boys—finding comfortable accommodations can be a challenge, but this motel was perfect for us. Our room with three queen beds was spacious and practical, complete with a microwave and refrigerator, which came in handy. There were plenty of towels, the bathroom was spotless, and the iron and ironing board were well-used during our stay. This motel wasn’t a destination in itself, but it offered an economical and convenient stay that worked well for our big family. The front office staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making check-in and any questions we had a breeze. The boys enjoyed playing in the heated pool, and we appreciated the lounge chairs next to the pool where we could relax in the sun. Plus, there were vending machines nearby for quick snacks. The location was very convenient, with gas stations and restaurants close by. We grabbed breakfast from Denny’s, and the lobby also offered specialty coffee drinks, which was a nice touch. Overall, this was a comfortable, budget-friendly option for families needing space and practicality. We would definitely stay here again!"

"The staff are friendly and helpful"

"This is IN the state park. It feels like being at camp amongst the redwoods. For T-Mobile, cell signal is mostly miss. I also had trouble getting the wifi to work except in the main building where we check in. There is a restaurant offering all meals. There is a mini-fridge and hot water pot with coffee "tea" bags. The room is spacious and has a balcony looking into the forest. There's a swimming pool. Yes, I would stay here again. "

"Wonderful stay, highly recommend Attention to detail was appreciated. Kind, professional, attentive staff!!!"
