The cottage was so lovely.

It was only two nights in my nine day trip. So I was not expecting much from it initially. But when my fiancee and I got there, Erika was so kind and welcoming, the cottage was private as the description promised, and the room was clean, neat and comfortable.

We were delighted with the welcoming cookies and free tickets to the nearby aquarium - the aquarium was the must-see.

The location is wonderful too. We booked a golf tee-time at Pacific grove golf links and the cottage is like 5 min driving away from the links. And the famous 17 mile drive is adjacent to the street where the cottage is on.

If I shall visit Monterey area in the future, this place is where I'm going to stay.
