We locked the door and left key on kitchen table. Wanted to make sure everything is okay with check out?

As soon as we arrived the neighbor was out telling us how to park and to look out for the busy street traffic, which was strange but possibly well intended. The street was narrow and busy, neighborhood looked run down, but the house itself was well equipped. Coffee maker didn't work but owner was quick to replace, very responsive when wifi password didn't work. Most importantly, beds and pillows were clean and comfortable. The driveway wasn't ideal for parking, difficult angle, but we made it work. The house was advertised as pet friendly, which was important for us, but the back yard was entirely concrete with a little bit of gravel, if you arrive with a pet, you may want to walk down to the park for potty break. TV in main area is not a smart TV- limited channels, which wasn't a big deal for us because we wanted to be out exploring the whole time. But had we known, we would have brought our firestick. Masterbedroom had a Roku with the TV. We found an amazing Mexican restaurant down the road called La Tortuga!! Super good food and amazing staff. Smelled like a smoker had lived there, which would have been a big deal for my allergic daughter but they had air purifiers so my daughter did okay. Overall, the location wasn't what we had hoped but the house slept our family of 6 comfortably, so we feel okay about our stay.

This place was very clean, well priced, and we had easy communication with the homeowner. The location was perfect for going to Cannery Row and Carmel. The pictures online do not do the interior justice. The home is much more roomy than we were expecting from the pictures. It was very clean and well equipped. The only negative which is out of the owners control is the street is a bit sketchy. Seaside is just like that however, like many older beach towns. That being said we had no issues. The neighbors were quiet. The driveway is STEEP and SHORT. We have a mid sized SUV and we just fit at a 40 degree angle. We will be happy to stay here again.

The house was great for our 3 week stay in Monterey. We were there for we were doing in the area. The neighborhood is a blue collar working class neighborhood with a mix of houses. Parking is a real issue. We were in 1 vehicle but at night cars line the curb out front. One day we actually had to knock on a few neighbors door because someone had parked there car in front of the driveway and we could get in. . The washing machine died while were there and they sent someone the next day and installed a brand new one. They also offered to come clean the house and restock with fresh clean towels halfway through our stay since we were there for 3 weeks. The house was clean and the owners went out of their way to try to make our stay a good one.

Was perfect for our family Thank you

Would stay there again.

The only downgrade I would give is that I was there to celebrate my birthday and the oven didn't work. When I called I did not get a call back. I wouldn't even mention this if someone had gotten back to me. Communication needs to be improved. Other than that the house was clean and the location was convenient. It was affordable and I would totally stay there again if the communication was better when I had a legitimate reason to contact the owner.

Cozy well decorated and well stocked home. Close to everything, aquarium, Carmel, etc.

Perfect experience! Loved this home! Communication with owners was great! We definitely will be renting this home again on our next visit Monterey! Thank you so much for everything!!
