My stay at Mariposa Inn And Suites was pretty solid overall. The location is convenient for accessing both Monterey and Carmel, which I loved. The room was spacious and comfortable, but it felt a tad dated and could use some updates. Also, parking can be a hassle during peak times, so returning early is a must.

The front desk staff was friendly enough, but they weren't super accommodating when I had an issue with some noise from the fire alarm. It felt like they could've been more helpful.

It's perfectly situated between Monterey and Carmel, making it great for day trips. However, it can be a bit tricky if you want to walk to the attractions since it's on a busy street.

Breakfast was okay; it offered a decent variety but lacked hot options. Just a heads up if you want something warm in the morning.

The pool and hot tub were nice and clean. I also appreciated the outdoor garden spaces, perfect for chilling out after a day of exploring.

My stay at Mariposa Inn and Suites was quite pleasant, but it had its share of drawbacks. The room was spacious and clean, and I appreciated the comfortable bed and nice shower pressure. However, I found the breakfast options limited, particularly for someone with gluten intolerance like me. The location was convenient, offering easy access to a nearby shopping center, which was a definite plus.

The hotel is situated near a shopping center, making it convenient for picking up snacks and essentials. It was a little further from the main restaurant area than I expected, though.

Breakfast was quite basic, offering limited choices, which might not suit everyone, especially those with dietary restrictions. I managed with coffee and an apple, but there weren't many options otherwise.

Facilities

The overall facilities were functional, but the indoor spaces could use some freshening up to match the pleasant outdoor areas, which offered nice spots to relax.

My stay at Mariposa Inn And Suites had its ups and downs. The recently renovated rooms were modern and clean, but the quality of the beds left much to be desired, making for a rather uncomfortable sleep. While I appreciated the nice atmosphere and the amenities, there were noticeable issues with cleanliness and staff adherence to Covid protocols.

The room was recently remodeled and looked modern, but I encountered some maintenance issues like a microwave that wasn’t clean and window shutters that were hard to operate. The king bed was unfortunately hard and uncomfortable, which really affected my overall experience.

Location

The hotel is conveniently located, offering easy access to both Monterey and Carmel, with a shopping mall nearby. However, the busy street outside contributed to noise that was sometimes disruptive.

Dining

Breakfast was limited, with just a grab-and-go option of fruits and muffins, but it felt a bit lacking compared to what I had expected, especially with only basic options available.

Facilities

6.0

The facilities, including the fire pit area by the pool, were appealing and well-kept, providing a great place to unwind. However, I found the elevator out of order during my entire stay, which was inconvenient.

5.0/10

I had a pleasant stay at Mariposa Inn And Suites. The room was clean and spacious, with a very comfortable bed and great shower pressure. However, the check-in experience could definitely use improvement, as it took longer than expected and the breakfast options were quite limited, especially for those with dietary restrictions. Overall, it was a nice hotel, but there are areas that need attention. 😊

Rooms

The room was large and comfortable, with good amenities like a microwave and fridge. The decor was stylish, contributing to a pleasant atmosphere. However, some rooms may have issues with air conditioning on upper floors.

Service

6.0

While most staff were helpful and attentive, my check-in experience was frustrating due to a lack of communication about room readiness, and I encountered some rudeness at the front desk.

Location

8.0

The hotel's location is excellent, right across from a shopping center and close to attractions like the aquarium, making it easy to get around. However, it does sit on a busy street, which may not be ideal for everyone.

Dining

Breakfast options were limited and not suitable for those with allergies. While I could only have coffee and yogurt, my partner enjoyed some baked goods. It's advisable to seek nearby options like Whole Foods for more variety.

The hotel had nice facilities, including a clean pool area and a good outdoor space with a fire pit. However, some rooms lack modern tech amenities, which could improve the overall experience.
