Monterey Bay Lodging Suggestions
 

Is there a frugal night's stay in the Monterey Bay area? We're there for one night and would like to spend time on the beach, Aquarium, Carmel activities. Any recommendations?

well you could try priceline....

The Howard Johnson on Munras Ave was clean & comfy for one night, and the location was good, too.

We stayed at a beautiful Best Western in Capitola and drove to the areas we wanted to visit from there. It's a short drive to Monterey, a good location for a base to go in either direction, and the savings were good.

We loved Capitola, a very quaint little coastal town with much charm. Dinner at the Shadowbrook was very nice here. :)

You may also want to check out the BestWestern Beach Resort, a nice property right on the beach and reasonably priced. **kim*** ((f))

My son attends CSU Monterey Bay. We always stay at the Comfort Inn Marina. It is about $100 per night and includes breakfast...yummy fresh made waffles. Nothing fancy, but easy distance to all the sights including some nices beaches.

Asilomar can be a bargain, depending on what is available. Remember it includes a FULL, Complete breakfast in their lovely dining room. And the grounds are great for walking, there is a pool (rarely used) and across from the beach.

My parents always stayed in Seaside to save $$.
