3 reviews for Vagabond Inn
vagabond came through for me in a pinch since motel 6 was having a brain fart with my online reservation AND "all rooms are still dirty" at 1230pm - "they'll be ready after 2".
reception guy here is a bit stale. doesn't seem he doesn't know how to "smile". however, i, without any effort, worked him down to a competitive price for 1 night.
room was clean and neat from entrance to the shower. everything worked well, with the exception to the fridge. it had this annoying noise every so often that woke me up. i could have just unplugged the damn thing but, whatever. beds are a little on the firm side.
very close to 101 but not so close to eateries. in fact, on it's block, in-n-out burger is your only option that's with-in walking distance. you'll have to jump in your car to find other options.
i probably wouldn't come back to this "inn" but, if in desperation, this will suffice.

Maybe I would've 'appreciated' this place more if the fiance and I were without kids. Maybe if we had some killer story about drinking and dancing the night away, and just needing a place to sleep ... Unfortunately this was not the case. We were in the Monterey area for the weekend, and didn't want to drop the $250+ on a room in Monterey or any surrounding area for that matter. So we got this place, ugh. Wish I would've dropped the extra cash. The room was old and musty smelling. The bathroom is not 'comfortable', it just makes you feel icky. The a/c worked and then at some point during the night our room just turned to a humid/sticky box. The beds are hard as hell, and the pillows, or sheets of paper as I refer to them, were so thin. I guess it's the whole you get what you pay for deal here. Bummer. Note to self: Next time SPLURGE for the better room!

It was a good place to stay, for its price. The guy on the reception was really nice and we requested a room facing the parking lot instead of the 101, and on the second floor, and he gave us everything we wanted. The room was clean and had pretty new furniture. It has a microwave, coffee machine, fridge. The fridge really does some noise from time to time, and the hotel is located in a pretty noisy area, so I would recommend sleeping with earplugs. On the second night we turned the a/c on to create a white noise and it really worked well. The a/c was not working, just the ventilation, so it was a bit hot for us. The breakfast was somewhat better than we were expecting. They had pastries, cereal, orange juice, coffee and hot water if you wanted tea or hot chocolate. It was a good experience overall and I would recommend it to a friend.
