The two ladies at the front desk are awesome. I forgot their names, but one worked the night shift and the other was a Dutch lady. Both incredibly sweet and kind. Breakfast was taken care of by one of them and she kept everything clean and stocked. And both super cool to talk to. This may be the first time that we re-book a hotel in Monterey!

Wonderful!

Great motel for a good price during tourist season considering it is in Monterey! The room was spacious and clean with a comfortable bed. Sliding door provided cool air. No AC but not needed for our visit. The coffee in the lobby was great, although, continental breakfast was nothing special. The location was great for a concert at the beautiful Golden State Theater. Many restaurants and a great bakery within walking distance of the Colton.

Loved the room. It offered a simple view of the street below. Had my own fireplace that can burn logs which was very nice. The breakfast was delicious. Walking distance from fishermans warf and other local attractions. Overall, a lifesaver considering i booked a room there last minute because the othet hotel was terrible.
