Joy's place is in a nice area of Monterey, parking was pretty easy and check-in simple. If you aren't picky at all about linens and furniture, then you'll probably be ok here. We needed four beds though and the second twin bed is more like a pull-out cot. (The pictures are misleading.) We stayed for less than a half hour, saw it wasn't very clean, or very nice, and didn't have enough beds, so we left and checked-in to the Best Western. I wouldn't recommend it to others.
