Great location, friendly staff, clean rooms, complementary breakfast. The rooms are all different and have a funky fun (sorta dated) feel. I have stayed at the Colton multiple times and all good experiences but others in my group have had random problems with electricity, etc.

stayed a week in this hotel 6th may til 13th may, and couldnt fault it, all the staff were friendly and chatty, the buildings, grounds and rooms are highly maintained, cleanliness is of a high standard, the breakfast coissants, pastries, muffins were always fresh and plentyful, afternoons offer a good selection of cookies, you wont be disappointed

Great location. Walking distance to the wharf. Friendly staff. Clean, but underwhelming rooms. The bathrooms receive a C- from us, they were tired looking and the shower head was very low. We booked the hotel through Hotwire, and I was a little disappointed when the hotel name was revealed, I think the Comfort Inn in Carmel would have been nicer... More

Lovely, clean, spotlessly maintained buildings and grounds. Cookies and drinks available all afternoon. Large rooms, some with balconies and fireplaces. Reception staff could have been friendlier. Nice terrace to sit on with a cuppa or breakfast. Very close to sea and downtown. Vending machines and laundry. What's not to like?

We stayed one night here- I was pleasantly surprised at the homely feel and large room which had a nice double aspect window, fireplace with 1 log, pleasant furnishings ,TV and fridge. Aside from the log fire, there was no other heating and as we were in a coldish spell this could have been a worry the next morning, but... More

Nice place to stay if you do not plan to remain in the room all day. Not much to rave about. We were expecting a little bit more from this place. Staff very pleasant and quick to respond. Well stocked with cookies when we arrived. Breakfast was very basic: pastry and rolls.

Comfortable rooms, some even with fireplace ($5 per big log after the first complimentary one) and mine, on the ground floor, had a pleasant balcony at the back, catching the morning sun. You can park your car right in front of your room, at least on the ground floor. Very quiet (at least before the golfers' onslaught) and safe. Great... More

No doubt - this is the best value place in Monterey. None of the three other places we have stayed in the town offered free parking and free WiFi. I liked their breakfast and their wooden deck with chairs and tables, but what I really loved was their evening buffet of snacks and beverages that included fruits, cookies, teas and... More

For the price, you can't beat the free services included. Everyone was upbeat, service was quick, many freebies like cookies, apples, hot beverages, wireless internet, movies and continental breakfast. Though the facility is slightly outdated, everything worked well, and the room was clean and comfortable. We left in the morning full and satisfied.
