Summary: This is my second time staying here at El Castell Motel. They by far have the best beds. They are soft, but not too soft, exactly how I like them. The locations is literally from 1.5 mi to 3 mil of where we wanted to shop/visit/eat. Their pillows are like new. I can't say the same about others I have stayed at. The 1 bed rooms are a bit small, but the price of stay is very reasonable especially when you reserve through Hotels.com. The staff they have at the Lobby are so sweet and helpful. I recommend the coffee machine in the Lobby as well. This motel isn't very fancy, but the price is fair, and very comfortable.

Summary: It was very good for the price and comfortable! Only reason why I am rating this hotel 4 stars is because I arrived at 4:30 and the rooms were still not ready although check in was at 3.

Summary: 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!
