On our recent road trip and tour of the Western US, we stopped overnight at Munras Inn in Monterety, California. We were pleasantly surprised at the size of our room (almost cavernous) with 16 foot high ceiling and roomy trapezoidal shape. The room had a nice fireplace, refrigerator, microwave and TV with premium cable. Closet space was very generous, and the bathroom was long and spacious also. There was ample free parking. Breakfast was included consisting of breakfast sandwiches, pastries, cereals, fruit, juices and coffee, all to be picked up in the lobby and brought back to ones room for consumption. I think that it was a warm, comfortable place to stay, and would recommend it.
However, of the various hotel properties that we recently experienced on our tour, my wife and I remember Munras Inn as kind of the oddball. Not necessarily negatively so, but idiosyncratic. Like, the room was so huge that it seemed minimalist and empty. The angled ceiling with wooden beams reminded me of cabins in Tahoe. The bed was a large King, but the bed frame was larger than the mattress by 6 inches or so. The bedside could have used some lamps or reading lights. The two lounge chairs in the room were upholstered in a sort of vinyl/plastic and were a good 14 feet from the television. The main lighting for the room was a chandelier that seemed incongruous with the otherwise modern decor. Access to the property was not exactly easy also, involving driving around the block to approach the one driveway from the NE.
Overall I would say that it was a good nights' stay and a good value, so I can recommend it. It was a nice, comfortable hotel. Just be prepared for the little odd quirks.
