Great place to stay while visiting Monterey Bay. Check-in was easy. Communication with the host was great. The house is located a couple of blocks from the ocean with a nice bike/walking path. The aquarium is about a 10 minute walk from the house. Restaurants, grocery store, and cafes were all within walking distance. One thing to note, however, is that there is another unit for rent upstairs and because of the age of the house we could hear every sound made by the folks staying upstairs. This is not so much a criticism but as a statement of fact for the benefit of other users who may be more sound sensitive than we were. Other than that minor issue, we had a wonderful stay and will certainly consider staying here again when visiting Monterey.
