First time staying in Monterey and do not regret our decision on staying at aura inn. The place was beautiful, well maintained, and overall cozy. Staff was attentive to any questions we had, and were very welcoming. Thank you aura inn, we appreciate you guys! Oh and a plus, there is a shopping center right across from the hotel, and we walked there twiceeee for shopping or even dinner.

Check-in was a breeze, thanks to the friendly gentleman at the front desk. Our room was spotless, the shower had excellent pressure, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. My only minor complaint was the absence of a bar of soap in the restroom (not everyone prefers body wash). Overall, I would definitely stay here again!

Easy and free parking was very nice. It's also in a very convenient location. The room was average quality, and the cleanliness was average. The room safe did not work and the AC/heating unit wasn't always working well. Good for a quick stay, but don't expect to hang out comfortably in your room.

The room was newly renovated and very clean. The bed and pillows were comfortable. There was a microwave, refrigerator, and a safe. The inn is across the street from the shopping center, and close to restaurants. The room rate was exceptional.
We would choose to stay there again.
