Did not stay there, But! We were scheduled to stay at this now independent hotel in Watsonville, just off Highway 1 north of Monterey, CA for one night. We were scheduled to be in Moss Landing for a 7:30 AM Meeting (about 6+miles from the meeting) and I chose this hotel through an on-line travel site, that offers air, car, hotel, etc. pricing and reservations. They showed this hotel to be less than a mile from my meeting site, along with a number of other hotels, further away. Upon arriving at the hotel after realizing that the drive from Moss Landing on US 1 was greater than 6 miles, and traffic in the morning on a two lane road would not be easy in this area, I told the hotel clerk that I would need to find another hotel closer in and that I would have to cancel my reservation, the hotel clerk was very understanding and released me from any monetary obligation on this short notice cancellation. He did not have to do that, and I thanked him. He also offered directions to Moss Landing other than US 1 because traffic on that road was totally blocked going south due to an accident. I can say from my brief visit to the lobby that the hotel, now independent (a former Motel 6 franchise) was very clean, and they were doing a wash/cleaning of the exterior of the building. As I said, the hotel staff was very nice and accommodating in solving my problem. I wish them all the success in operating this hotel.
