Top Alta Mesa Hotel Reviews

Stargazer Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place!"

Best Western Park Crest Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I'm kind of a hotel snob. I like things to be 5 star quality on a 3 star budget. I have this hotel an over all excellent rating although it is not a 5 star hotel. The room was clean, the beds were comfortable, there were plenty of towels. It had an adequate breakfast. It's an older place but it has been well maintained. All in all for what it is I gave it an excellent rating. I had to consider that it wasn't new when making my review."

Bay Breeze Inn

8/10 Good

"I would say this place is all around "ok" and "good" as a budget place to stay in the area. The room is reasonably clean, including the floor, bedding, and bathrooms. The trash area is easy to find. Ice machine works, and the office has a water machine (make sure you go during office hours to get water, around 9a-9 or 10p or so based on what we noticed). We stayed for four nights and had everything we needed. Of note, the parking lot was completely full almost every night. I think all the rooms were booked so that correlates."

The Stevenson Monterey

8/10 Good

"We stayed here for one night and the staff that checked us in was very helpful. She suggested we take a room on an upper floor when she knew it was just my child and I. I felt safe staying there but the motorcycles in and around were so obnoxiously loud. They were riding around with what felt like all hours of the night and I believe someone staying on the property had one too and right outside of our door. I know this is not the property's fault but I don't know if I would stay there again because of this reason. The room was clean and all we needed to do was stay there the night before we went on further north and it served its purpose."
