We loved our stay at Munras Inn. Our room was super quiet (number 13) and away from the road. The staff was really nice and helpful especially when we couldn't figure out how to make the heater work correctly. The hotel was ideally located and close to everything! We were only 10-15min max from Carmel.

This hotel was a great place to relax after a few days in San Francisco. The room, restaurant and patio were lovely and a nice pool area was a bonus. The staff were all welcoming, friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a good location, with the main street that leads to Old Fishermans Wharf just down the road. Monterey is a charming town with a good choice of restaurants, and a beautiful coastline.
